Grey between steel and gold
The grey dial is the link between the two metals: it matches the steel of the case and lets the gold rims of the counters stand out, as photo 04 shows. All five photos agree on a mid-grey face. If you want a warmer face in the same case, look at the champagne 116503; for more contrast, the black two-tone 116503.

How does this 116503 dial look in daylight?
Silver-grey. All five photos show a steel-grey face that turns a touch lighter under bright light, and the gold-tone counter rims stay the strongest contrast.
