I cannot seem to decide between the white dial and the ivory pyramid dial. I know i wanted the classic datejust look (36mm, jubilee braclet, light color dial). But im extremely conflicted and keep going back and forth.

minute_man · 15 February 2017, 05:01 AM

I'd go with the white; cleaner look plus lume.

Formulansx · 15 February 2017, 05:22 AM

Yep plain white

Shichinin · 15 February 2017, 05:27 AM

Not a datejust person but I also would go with white dial between these models.

toneafficianado · 15 February 2017, 05:30 AM

White is right here.

Gerry62 · 15 February 2017, 05:34 AM

White

AboutTime · 15 February 2017, 05:43 AM

Both are really nice and the pyramid dial is much less common. Still I prefer the white dial.

Brandon(phila) · 15 February 2017, 05:49 AM

Ivory Pyramid looks much nicer in person.....looks much richer.

JRT · 15 February 2017, 05:52 AM

The one has the white dial with lume gets my vote.

Castiel · 15 February 2017, 05:53 AM

Based on the pics, white is right.

SemperFi · 15 February 2017, 05:58 AM

Another vote for the white dial.

Psmith · 15 February 2017, 05:58 AM

Not crazy about either, but would go with white.

No brainer.

White!

dba · 15 February 2017, 06:16 AM

That white dial is classic Datejust.

Arclight · 15 February 2017, 06:25 AM

white, much cleaner

VladimirS · 15 February 2017, 06:34 AM

Nice to see another Vladimir!

I like the plain white, crisp look.

OmegaJJH · 15 February 2017, 06:40 AM

Although the other dials are rarer I'd go white.

Bigcigardan · 15 February 2017, 06:47 AM

My day date is in for service and dial swap I wanted pyramid but wasn't available so chose white. Get the white it's very legible compared to most of the other dials. imho the 16233 with a white dial is one of the cleanest in the line up.

I'll go with the crowd...white!

encarter13 · 15 February 2017, 07:02 AM

Both look great, but white dial looks best

zakattack62 · 15 February 2017, 08:09 AM

You say in your post you want the classic Datejust look. That makes the answer so easy. White dial all the way.

natosub · 15 February 2017, 09:04 AM

From those pictures the white looks preferable, but in person the pyramid is very nice!

HL65 · 15 February 2017, 09:10 AM

Love the pyramid - one of the best dials for DJ IMHO!

JMK01 · 15 February 2017, 09:40 AM

Definitely white face!

OYSTERMANN · 15 February 2017, 09:42 AM

Undoubtedly, the plain white dial.

mps354 · 15 February 2017, 10:18 AM

I think the pyramid dial makes the watch a bit more interesting

vladamir15 · 19 February 2017, 03:42 AM

Thank you very much for the feedback guys. I had already sourced the watch with pyramid at a good price, but I guess now I have to keep searching. I think I'll try to see the pyramid dial in person. But if not, I'm leanig towards the classic white.
