My TD is telling me that this is a grey navitimer as I requested (first pic attached). And these pictures sure look blue to me (2nd pic). How am I supposed to deal with this and then I receive a blue watch? how do you deal with someone you telling you one thing when clearly you see another?

I think you should trust your TD on this one.

The dial is grey. You are seeing the combination of the bright light reflecting off the crystal, the bright white box reflecting off the crystal, and maybe a blue tint natural to the crystal.

Notice the similar effect on this black dialed Panerai.

It's grey, you won't receive a blue watch, so no need to worry about that break down just yet.

how do you deal with someone you telling you one thing when clearly you see another?

Just accept you're wrong - again.

On a bright note, look at the bezel on mine, compared to yours.... looks like the updated it and made it a little better... meaning that the slide rule markings are really close to meeting the markers on the dial - like the gen....
So, that is a positive and this is a really well built rep... it’s actually the below mod that I do believe is repped...

I showed you the difference in the gray and blue I. The pics I posted...
I can’t see how you’re seeing blue there... it’s certainly gray and black!

Yeah the video helped confirm that the dial is definitely black.

However, the logo is silver not gold as in your original picture. Do they not have the gold logo version?

The dial is dark grey, not black. Note the difference between the main dial and the subdials

Yeah looks awesome, so I guess there's still the sunken date issue?

Don't know what else to say... That's definitely a grey dial. That blue ish tint is the anti reflective coating on the crystal.
