Black dial milgauss GV would match better.

Wrong post. Great contrast to the op and the Milgauss.

I love the fact that it’s kind of an underdog and it’s unique style ties into my character. But what do you all think of it’s look on the wrist?

This will be my second (forever watch) in my collection next to my sub that I bought from AD on my birthday in July.

I think it’s between this. Datejust 41 or OP39 all in white dial.

I kind of like how the milgauss will keep the collection in the professional lineup with some tool watch heritage

I personally like the contrast. Makes the white dial pop

After some thought I have to say that if you're intent on a white dial then the watch is fine. I think I'd like it better than the OP or DJ.

I think your skin tone is complimentary to the white dial!

In the end go with your gut, not other’s opinions. Every time I’ve bought with others opinions, I end up bored with it and selling and then go and buy what I gut-wanted anyways and don’t get bored with it.

I think it looks great. I have the Z-Blue and would love to get the white dial in the future.

I think it looks good. I just hate how thick the Milgauss is! That's the only thing keeping me from getting it.

Also wasn't the white dial discontinued some time ago? Has that thing been sitting at your AD for years? Could get a good discount on it.

I think a white DJ41 with fluted bezel would really pop as well.

I’d try on a white dial DJ41 and the OP just to compare. I think the orange highlights on the Milgauss may be too much
