I have the RG Daytona on Oysterflex and chocolate dial. It is a gorgeous dial! My advice, get it!

black dial will pop way more due to the contrast + i'm not a fan of the hour markers on the chocolate dial

i would go with black

I would go with the black dial, the chocolate dial is very hard to read

Yes it is harder, black dial was my choice, the RG counters are really nice set against the black dial.

Black dial, to me the sub-dials have to be contrasted, otherwise its not a daytona
