Black dial Sky Dweller or white gold Day Date?
I want a black dial watch. I have a line in a black jubilee sky dweller and a pre owned white gold day date. Can’t have both. Always loved the president bracelet on the DD. But I love the dial on the sky dweller. What would you choose if the $ wasn’t much of a difference between the two?

The black dial Sky-Dweller is my favorite version, but if DD is an option, I will almost always choose the DD.
I’m surprised that a pre-owned DD is roughly the same price as a new SS Sky-Dweller? |

I’m assuming the DD is an older 36mm previous 11 series gen. I wouldn’t wear a 36mm to be honest. Sky-D this time. And in a blue dial. The sky is blue. Happy hunting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It would be for a 41mm dd2. And yes, the dd 2 would be a bit more. I’m saying money aside… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'd go DD if I could get a comfortable fit. This can be tricky.

I'm not a fan of the DDII proportions and I love the black dial Skydweller.
Skydweller for me. |

I find I grab the Sky Dweller a lot more than the Day Date, fwiw. My recommendation is the Sky Dweller. No photo of a black dial DD40, sorry.

The DD II would be the watch if in good condition and complete.
