    I think the Orange on Doxa dials is one of the best.

    This one has to be right up there also along side Black.

    Re: Favourite Dial Colour

    i rather like white but have never quite been bold enough to part with the money for one, so black i guess

    I love the blue on my airman 2000, looks black in low light but in sunlight it's a stunning blue.

    Variety is the spice of life etc, but still keep coming back to black dials.

    My favourite is silver, love the way it changes character depending on lighting conditions. Some examples below.

    Silver guilloche on a dress, black on a sports, diver or chrono.

    Re: Favourite Dial Colour

    Most of mine are black now, but I've had several white dials, some full lume, some not as well as blue, orange, silver etc.

    Not had a yellow dial yet, but I've a hankering to get one.

    Generally black or silver but the green on my Seiko Alpinist has its own attraction.

    Each and every watch has its own style - for Luminor I preferred black

    Re: Favourite Dial Colour

    I never cared for white dials,with one exception;
    The "Siffert" Autavia.

    IMO a black dial looks good on almost any watch:





    But orange also looks very good on the right watch:



    blue is nice too.. :)

    Brown...i think it's not easy to find watches with brown dial

    I hate with a passion most of the Defys from the Nataf era (except maybe the zero-G, but purely on watchmastery grounds) but I REALLY like those.
    Is it yours Dave? Anymore photos? PLEASE :D :bounce:

    Thanks

    I am not green with envy; green is my natural colour :D

    Funny that most people, even in the WIS community, will forget the Defy when they think of toolwatches...

    There's black and there's black. I find gloss dials much less appealing than matt.

    Re: Favourite Dial Colour

    black for me too!

  38. #88

    Re: Favourite Dial Colour

    got to be blue

    Re: Favourite Dial Colour

    Every watch I like, own or have bought has a black dial, however on a Doxa I love orange and I like the white on the Rolex explorer. other than that black all the way.

    Black and white are my favourite, but cant choose between these 2 : white is classy, and black is perfect for sporty watches

    Re: Favourite Dial Colour

    Not easy question I believe: Black (for chronos); Very dark blue; Blue (Glycine Stratoforte); Silver (Hamilton Jazzmaster Chrono); Golden (depending on the model); Antracite;...
