White dial is the "true" Snowflake. One thing to consider is if you can handle the darker blue of the power reserve window on the blue one.

Must say I was so busy admiring the ice blue ,I didn’t notice the darker blue but looking again it wouldn’t be a problem,,,
Wondering if the white dial looks more ivory in some pics? Thanks Ben,m, |

You really need to see the watch(es) themselves. Pics just don't do it.

Thanks for the replies TRFs,,,,
I must admit I’m more excited about the SD snowflake then receiving our chnr ,apparently before Xmas but that will be more of a dress watch,,z, SD will be a daily wearer and I’m kinda savouring the moment until I see the white dial in the flesh ,,,,,,reading as much as possible about the history of GS and how the designers went to the mountain and tried to replicate the exact colour and texture of the snowflake dial is just nectar to me along with Adam and other members vintage pics,,,, Cheers,,,,,,j |

I much prefer the cleaner look of the 007, with the SD meter on the back of the watch, not on the dial. |

gorgeous !!! So clean. I hope GS will start putting the PR on the back of the automatic movements too. I don't massively dislike it on the front, thought it was a cool feature at first, but this and the darker blue dialed 007's are swaying me.....

My first journey with GS so apologies if not described correctly but when I look at the “ clean” white dial ,,, I now seem to look at the darker blue power reserve in the sky flake which I don’t think looks as complete? as the white dial,,, Your pics are stunning and looks fantastic,,,,that is a great colour blue,,,, 007 . Is that a full quartz movement Swish?,, I’m off to Chrono24 to have a look at the 007,,lol Thank you Swish ![]() |

None of these photos do justice for the Snowflake, tried one today and you need to see it to understand the beauty of the dial and how well is executed.
Very nice watch. |
