I would expect the black dial with arabics to get noticed the most.

Yet most ADs will tell you it's the white dial SA they can't keep in stock. After all, the SA is the "full ling" of "full lings," and it's blingier with a white dial IMO. Looks bigger too - not an opinion.

As long as you like it, who cares about the attention. Unless you bought it just for the attention....

Anyone who collects watches and tells you they don’t have a bit of the exhibitionist in him is lying, lying, lying.

But here’s the deal. Which do you like better when you look at your wrist? That should be the weighted factor.

i like both colors.
white is more elegant and classier...black more sporty.
just wondered what is the reason for that that dark dial gets more attention on the super avenger.
may be the contrast with the sub dials witch in a different color on the dark arabic dials makes it pop alittle more!

The contrasting sub dials on the darker face can be spotted from FAR away, making it a no brainer it is a Ling!
