Hey folks. I just received my watch and I can't tell if it's just me or if I got the wrong bezel color.

My original order was the AT CrPO Grey bezel with orange numbering.

here's the link to what I ordered: http://www.intime.co/omega/1415-pla...mm-1-1-best-edition-on-ss-bracelet-a8500.html

here's the QC pic I was sent:

What I received:

I originally asked for higher res QC pics (ones supplied were < 100KB) - this request was denied. So I approved based on what I saw, which to me was a grey bezel. But now I am not so sure.

I dont see anything in their description of the bezel being "Grey"..


They use alot of light so they will always look a little different.


Looks great.

you're right, and I did check the description after the fact and there is no mention of bezel color. And they do use a lot of light in the QC - also noted that as well. I have seen other posters' wrist shots in the Omega sub-forum where the bezel clearly looks grey. Now I am wondering if a 'grey' version even exists!

Agree with that it does look great. Thanks for your input :)

There is no genuine "grey" bezel. The ceramic and liquid metal models both appear as different shades of grey and black depending on lighting.

Fixed the pics, you need to use the tags from photobucket mate not the [url] tags.

The bezel in all those shots is black BTW.

Thanks trailboss. I'll use the insert image function moving forward. And thanks for confirming that they are all black.

You can just copy the link from Photobucket or even manually add the tags.
[ img] before the URL and [ /img] after it (minus the spaces).

And here I was thinking this thread was going to turn in to another one of those 'what colour is this dress?' moments.
I can see where the op would think the bezel is grey though, it does look like it in the QC picture, but regardless its still a beauty watch.
