I had my Rolex cherry popped with the white dial Daytona C early December 2016 after I saw it on magazine and went immediately like I've got to get myself one of these. I did some brief research and looked at both black and white dials and when I found that the little dials for the black are silver instead of white, it became a more obvious preference for me to buy the white dial which has smaller dials in black color which go nicely with the black ceramic bezel. I am a newbie to Rolex watches and am certainly no expert but I think may be for the same reason the white dial version catches more eyes and higher demands mean a slightly higher asking prices.
Before I saw this watch I didn't have much feeling about Rolex watches at all, now I'm spending a hour a day browsing through TRF and other websites - with a particular interest in Daytona and somehow the older generations also started to catch my eye now. I guess that's what people refer to as the Rolex bug-bite, huh huh .... And like yourself Daytona Dreaming, I too own some IWCs but they never got me hooked like this before.
