Which Daytona OF?
I’m considering adding an oyster flex to my Pepsi (jubilee) and Royal Oak Chrono collection. I’m between the Ghost (silver dial with black subdials) or the baby Le Mans (black dial with silver subdials). I think they are both different enough from my AP that either work, but curious to see TRF’s preferences.
While the Ghost is generally more popular, the baby Le Mans is very appealing because of the sun brushed black dial. I think the sun brushed black dial gives the watch a little more visual interest. That said, I also really like the balance of the Ghost with the black sub dials, black ceramic bezel, and black strap all matching nicely. Which do you pick to add to my current collection?

On Oysterflex, the black dial for sure. To my eyes, it’s a more coherent piece. Good luck with your choice!

I have both in the family and absolutely wear the black dial way more often than the ghost

I think the Ghost. It’s one of, if not the best Daytona in the catalogue. I’d love to have both, but if choosing one only, I’d go Ghost.

The black dial appears to be more legible to my eye. So I voted black.
