Which dial color is the most popular?
Regardless of the model and the metal, which color dial you like the most?

Polar for me on the 16570/216570. Must be the contrast of the black surrounds on the crisp white dial, really just pops.

Depends on the watch, really. But when I have had a choice, I tend to go black.

It really depends on the reference for me.
This blue sunburst is probably my favorite dial of all. That said, its hard to argue with the piano black Rolex dials Sent from my SM-G960W using Tapatalk |

Black is the most versatile; however, a blue dial in the collection makes for a nice change every now and then.

Black is the most common color in my collection, but quite a few colors are represented.
Each has its own appeal.

Most watches tend to have a black dial as stock. If there is an option, then I guess that blue is more desirable

OP, think these are two separate questions.
1. Pretty sure black is most popular color if you go by sales 2. Favorite color for me is also probably black but blue a close second and depends on watch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Really dependent on model. If I had to generalize I would agree with others the most popular are black then blue.
Some state that "green is the new blue" which is true to an extent. It's trending and hot right now, but I don't think it will ever be as universally popular as blue long-term. |

Even though most of my watches are black dials, white dials really sing to me! If there was a white and black dial Pepsi I would certainly pick white there

Black looks great but lacks the shine and burst effects of the blue and green dials.
There's nothing quite as eye catching as the green dial of a sub LVc. |

Always a fight between Black and Blue.
Hence the popularity of the BLNR. |
