Dial color for full gold Rolex Day Date? Black vs Silver vs White vs Champagne

I am set to buy a full gold Rolex Day Date 40. Fluted bezel. I am a man.

This will be my dress watch (i.e. not an every day watch, have an old two tone datejust for that and a Cartier 21 Chronoscaph which I use as daily) to be worn on occasions such as a special gala, etc.

The champagne is elegant but a bit tacky, the black one is less tacky but Too contrasting. Hence, I am mostly undecided between silver and white which are a bit boring but more elegant.

Also, I am really uncertain between whether I should get Roman numbers or not.

Let me know your advice and thoughts.

Thank you!
