updated renders with 2 dial options (black dial and light gray dial (white think may look too aggressive with the contrast of ceramic black bezel/white dial)

 
Can't wait for the preorder info.

And that new grey dial looks really nice and compliments the orange min hand and text rather nicely.

Here is my take.

You already have a Gray dial for the Borealis Sea Dragon.



If you will fabricate a Borealis Forum Watch that is a white dial using an existing case, but DLC'd(suggesting using the Sea Dragon), then I guess gray is ok to use on the Scorpion Fish.

Below is a picture of a white dial(non lumed), and in this case PVD'd tegimented case, Sinn watch.

If there will be no other white dial watches from Borealis, I believe the Scorpion Fish would be a great case to showcase it. White can be both a dressy and casual style.

If you do not want an "aggressive" pure opaque white, maybe look into something like the Rolex EXP II polar white dial or the PAM 523. The Aegir I have exhibits a "polar white dial" which is stellar.

Here is a picture of my Cave Dweller with black bezel.



Here are others borrowed from the net:








Even with a stainless steel bezel would be hot too.








Here are my Aegir and Christopher Ward watches:

I was trying to get this combination, when I photoshoped the pictures (pic from the Web). The colors does not look aggressive to me.
 
The white dial looks real nice! One suggestion would be a white date wheel with black date. See the white dial watch examples I have posted. All have white date wheels with black dates.

Thanks for considering the white dial!

The black disc was to match the bezel as it is black but we can change it to white, sure. It will even cost less to manufacture as won't need to be reprinted.

We can keep discussing design for an eternity but that won't make us move forward.

Request was to have dial in white which we did. If we are going to make more and more changes we will keep working on a circle ...

If I keep asking factory to get changes done and approved from their side they will likely sell cases to someone else as we are not firming order with them.
