White dial moonwatch?

I really like the way the moonwatch wears but I’d like a white, navy, or other lighter-colored face. I’ve tried on other variants of the Speedy but wasn’t crazy abt how they wore. For example, the Racing was too chunky for my taste.

I can’t make heads or tails out of the Speedy reference history. Can someone point me to a reference(s) that has a lighter-colored dial but with the same dimensions as a moonwatch?

There are some options for you. Off the top of my head I can think of a few: Mitsukoshi dial, the past two Silver Snoopy models, some of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics models, the white Project Alaska model. I’m sure there are more.

Thanks! I love the Project Alaska but sadly, it’s out of my price range for now.

Was about to throw in the Gemini IV LE (blue dial, limited edition caseback, otherwise a standard Moonwatch).... it sells for around 8k EUR and I don't know how far your budget will stretch

...but it's a hot lookin' watch

Cheers,
Michael

If you like a moonphase have a look at a 3575.20 or a 3575.30

Alternatively, the 3506.31 / 3507.51 offers a Panda/Reverse Panda dial.

My bad... you were asking for a WHITE dial Moonwatch
So just forget about my suggestion with the blue dial.

Sorry!
