I don’t pile go with the silver

The dial just looks cleaner and less busy in the silver dial than in the blue.

My two cents

The blue stands out compared between the two & is killer!

It’s weird - wish the blue had contrasting subs but the panda dial
Blends right in to the wg bezel in a way I don’t like. So, I’d go 519.
Blue if forced.

Depends on if you want to stand out. Silver is great. Blue is not as common. Blue for my vote.

Silver. The contrast with the panda sub-dials is simply splendid.

Out of interest did you end up getting it from ebay? I I'll be interested to know what the experience was like. I have only ever bought directly from an AD so just intrigued

Hi,

No I bought it from a grey dealer that I have bought several watches from, I am not brave enough to spend that much money on ebay

I adore the 126519. It’s my grail, and I’m working towards it. However. This. Is. Just. Epic. I think it puts the 519 in the shade. I’d need to see one before making the decision to target it. But from photos, it’s a more beautiful piece than the 519.

Yeah I had a poll n this a while back. Vote was close between blue and steel panda, but the comments were heavy to blue. One responder said the blue subdials wash together n the main dial in low light and preferred the black subdials of the steel.

I went with steel dial

While I think both are stunning and the contrasting sundials of the grey is beautiful, my vote is with the blue. It's a stunning watch in person.

Any Rolex with a blue dial is a bit more special than the other choices :)

I like the blue. Saw one a month ago and was surprised at how nice it looks, feels and wears. Can’t go wrong either way...

Not into whitegold watches but if I do it'd be the blue dial.
