Whats the nicest white dial Rolex?
1) Daytona SS
2) Milgauss
3) ExpII (42mm)
4) DJ II

Tough choice to make, but....I have to go with the DJII

+1 Agreed. As a cheaper alternative, the DJII with white sticks is pretty amazing too.

Actually if we can submit our choices I'll go with the DD 36mm with Meteorite dial (I think we can consider it white) or the choice of our great friend JustABreatAway!

I had the white dialed 116520 & for me the 42mm ExpII excels in all areas the Daytona fell short: size, date & no PCL's. If I had an interest in buying another Rolex that would be the one.

If you are want all SS then my vote goes for the Daytona. If you are talking about all gold then I would vote DDII.

There's also a full YG Daytona shown around here that looks beautiful with its white face. If we're to choose from the above list, I'd be tempted to go white ExpII for 'tack pant attire'
