Diamond Index vs Black Arabic.

I would like you to comment your thoughts about
Daimond Index vs. Black Arabic Dial. Z.model
I have the opportunity to buy one of them but can not make up my mind.
The price is the same.
19,000 USD

Unlike most Rolex enthusiasists, I've always been a big fan of diamond dials. However, I happily take either one.

Black Arabic. Diamonds make it look like a fake.

Diamonds just don't belong on a Daytona.

Diamonds + chronograph makes it really easy to mistake the time IMO.
