After trawling through countless images on here and videos on youtube of the black faced SA and white faced one, I still can't decide which to go for :(

I have a silly question though, but why does the black look smaller than the white one?

Same reason women like to wear so much black. Black makes things look smaller. Like if you painted a room with black walls. It would appear much smaller than the same room painted white. Its an illusion.

Always bet on "BLACK" my friend, lol. In all seriousness, the black dial SA is more of a rich textured dial, IMHO of course. I stare at the white dial and get bored, it looks plain and dull after a while. Go and see them both in person before you decide.

Black is slimming!

I'd say that to be certain about your decision, it would be best to check out both of these watches in the metal. Head to a local AD and see just how big/small these wear. It's certainly different than looking at photos on the internet.
