Before purchasing the Omega Seamaster White Dial, I looked for many videos on KZread, but I couldn't find anything as high quality as yours. You are the best video maker. I support you. Thank you.

Versatility is another good reason. Also, a rubber strap comparison would have been nice. Both look better on the strap imho but black on black currently really is my fav as well while I have to say that it is a really tough one which is why I'm watching those kind of videos😂

I went back and forth over these two for a long time, but in the end I went with the black. I think ultimately what helped me decide was how versatile the black dial is and how much the dial changes depending on the light. Also, I plan on buying an Aqua Terra and the white dial on rubber strap looks amazing. Congrats on your amazing timepiece.

I went with the white, I personally love the contrast of the bezel and dial. Another big thing for me is I plan on at some point getting a black dial chrono, possibly the Speedmaster and that just looks amazing as a black dial (unless I magically got handed a 50th Snoopy).

Like the gentleman above said, “the black works better in bracelet”…. I had the exact dilemma picking between black and white dial, I ended up choosing the black dial, and have no regrets. For me personally the white dial looks “cartoonish”. The black tile looks classier and more legible. Great video

If you’re going for a black diver it should be the Submariner. The Omega Seamaster should be in blue or now the new white(I owned a 2003 blue and currently own a 2022 whiteface). If I get another dive watch I would get a Blancpain Bathyscaphe in blue. Also, with your colorful tattoos I’m surprised you went conservative with the black dial.

“Should be”? How come? I own one Rolex, and I paid a pretty penny for that watch since I bought it on the grey market.
