When comparing to the white markers, the dial appears more like cream color.

Lovely. It's not often that I wish I had larger wrists to wear a bigger watch, but this is one of them.

(And it's not like my wrists are tiny. It's just a pretty big watch.)

I measure it as 0.8mm larger than the DJII; huge!!! Also to the OP, don't forget to remove the stickers!!!!

Looks great, I don't personally get all the fuss over the blue version, I feel this one and the black one are far superior.

Love. Where is best place to get a Rolex leather strap and clasp for our SS SkyDs? I tried on a leather strap WG SkyD and it was insanely comfortable.

Maybe for the white but we defo need to stick with Captain America for the blue. I know some hate nicknames but they are here to stay so I vote Captain America for the blue, I think it really suits it

Honestly, all three are gorgeous. I haven't seen any of them in person yet, but based on member photos here on TRF, I'm liking the white dial and the black dial. I'm sure the blue-dial watch is absolutely beautiful, too, but I just bought a blue-dial DJ2 last Christmas, so if I were to buy a SS SkyDweller, it would most likely be white or black. I've been a big fan of the beige-dial / white-gold SkyDweller, introduced a few years ago, so I'm kind of partial to that overall look, but the new SS black model is also quite stunning, too.
