Why you think this White Dial DD40 wont compliment my RG Choco dial? I think they are very different it will be perfect. Ones a dark dial on Rose Gold, the other is a light colored dial on Yellow Gold.

Better than having 2 x Rose Gold ones I think.

White would be my choice. Champagne is classic but makes it all a bit too one note.

Guess I’m in the minority, but the champaign dial for me. I’m not a fan of the white dial on the yellow gold or rose gold day dates. Love the champagne dial

Legibility shouldn’t be an issue for you if you are good with the legibility of the chocolate dial DD that you have

Of your choices, the white dial is fresher, crisper and younger looking. If it were me, I’d keep the rose/green and trade the chocolate for a platinum DD.

The contrast of the white dial is amazing! The golden dial is nice but not for me!

I vote for white.

I think the chocolate dial and the rose gold go together like the champagne dial with yellow gold.

Adding the white dial yellow gold version would add more to the collection I think.

Just my opinion.

That is the primary reason why I dont want to go champagne. Its like the combo of RG/Choco perfect but I'm after some contrast this time.

I did think about silver but I have a RG Skydweller with sun-dust dial already so that is probably overlap again in terms of dial colors.

This is what I meant to say.

Yeah it’s a tough choice, but again, I vote white
