Ladies and Gents of TRF - YOUR OPINION IN NEEDED!

The Wife has decided she wants a TT daytona!

The question is what dial do you think would look best of the wrist of a woman and would most likely match everything.

The choices are the plain white dial and the panda dial.

I personally prefer the panda as black, red and gold go with everything. But the white dial is indeed less sporty and may be in this case more feminine.

NONE of the pictures belong to me. I think one of them belongs to TSW (great picture!)

Thanks!

The missus says. Panda is nicer BUT more manly. For a woman, número uno. Official female verdict

I would definitely think that the plain white dial is more elegant looking for a lady than the panda dial, which I think is sportier looking.

I like the concentric arabics ...but shouldn't your wife be choosing?
Although it can be fun, I don't think crowdsourcing is the way to go here

Ultimate decision is hers! These are the dials we narrowed down too, she didnt like any on the MOP or diamond dials.

Fair enough! I'm going with the panda dial, although if budget/taste runs to the full gold models these are also very nice - some of the WG dials in particular

Calling it "plain white" is almost unfair that's a white and gold dial, and it would be my choice on a TT.

Man, that Panda dial is awesome. That's what I voted for. But, I can see the appeal of the white too. You really couldn't wrong with either.
