White Diver 15710 ?

I notice that this piece is starting to hit the AD's. I have not had the chance to see one live and am wondering if anyone seen or handled this reference ? If so, what are thoughts ? OR ?

Considering going back to a diver and maybe the white face would be a nice change....although not sure how good it would look on the SS bracelet (have one in the drawer ) or survivor hornback (yup in the same drawer ).

I tried it on recently and it is a beauty. I'd definitely pick it up if I was in the market for a diver. Here is a pic I took of it:



Pic doesn't do it justice.

I AM in the market...just not sure about the white face as I haven't seen it. Wondering if it has the same 'pop' as the black dial and if it would work with the bracelet and hornback.

I liked the framed date window, but that's about it to be honest. Dive watches are meant to have black dials.

It looks nice but I agree with Thomas here, for me a dive watch should have black dial, and apart very rare watches, like the Patek 5726, I don't like white dial watches, much prefer black and blue, blue being my favorite dial color

Black for me. The only watch I like with a white dial is my Rolex Polar Exp 2.
