I would normally go with the black dial but I'm not digging the yellow on it. I really like the white dial and I like that the bezel is black rather than silver as it balances the white well. With a black band, I think the white would look really good.

I don't have a wrist shot with me, but here is a pic of my white dial on the bracelet since that has not been posted yet.

That means you can't go wrong either way. I'd agree with that. I have to say, even though I'm generally partial to black dials, that white dial is one I could see myself wearing.

I agree 100% with your earlier statement about being very good bang for the buck. Might be the best deal in the game at the moment.

I voted black as I think it looks better, particularly with the yellow contrast. I just don't like the white on that watch for some reason.

Was there a decision that needed to be made? If so, did you make it, and what was the outcome?

The decision still hasn't been made... :)
The AT is still one of the options, but I'm also very tempted by a brand new Steelfish, that I could get, if I move fast. Will decide in the following weeks.

Both very strong divers, and the Fish has a devoted fan base, no doubt. It's priced more reasonably than the IWC, too. Still, if it were me, I'd go with the AT. I just like its appearance, finishing and proportions better than the Fish. I'm sure you'll find many who disagree, though.

Right on Jackson. Funny (and interesting) how personal taste may vary.
