I prefer the original but it has to be your decision!

I'd keep the serti for sure. The watch looks uniform with it.

Your current watch is classic and gorgeous. Just my opinion.

Give it a go - it's just a dial and can be changed back if need be

I assume the last two pics r of the same watch? It's the color changing dial depending on the lighting condition. Personally I love it. Here is mine, similar but different tone. Pics taken under diff light.

It's originally deep blue like ur second picture but faded overtime. under fluorescent light or the sun, it just shines. Most of these dials turned deep purple but this one took a wrong turn n became lighter. For sure these so called tropical dials r not common n quite unique as each one of them change differently. I for one love them.

I'd stick with the serti dial. The purple dial just doesn't look right IMO.
