Popped in AD and tried on the black dial. Incredible watch!

The contrast of the lighter dial looks better, to me. To backpedal from my earlier comment a bit, I’ve never seen this combo IRL, and I generally prefer my watches on bracelets. If you guys have and love one of these Daytonas on OF, enjoy!

i deliberated for a very long time before i settled on the Ghost. Both are stunning watches but I already had a reverse panda (speedy tuesday 1) so I didnt want to have the BLM and my ST1 in direct competition on which watch gets wrist time.
No regrets with the Ghost. Its stunning with the silver sunburst dial. The subdial legibility is not its strong point but tbh, i dont really activate the chrono function on my daytona. Its too troublesome, especially when compared to a speedmaster.

This is just my personal opinion, there are just too many black dials, it would be nice to change the color occasionally, isn’t it?

Solid point. Most of us have a collection with a majority of black dials. Most common dial color. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

After some deliberation I requested mine from the AD and was lucky just before last years price rise.

It's close, but I do think the Ghost is the prettier of the two. As others have said, in a sea of Black dial watches, the Ghost dial really stands out.
