I too own this watch and I've posted a few pics in other places but as [MENTION=28526]andyc[/MENTION] has stated pics do not do the watch justice compared to seeing in daylight and on the wrist.
I am extremely happy with my purchase but I did go through about 3-4 watches bc they do vary in quality with the gaps in the sel.
As other have stated the blue one does suffer from the same flaw as the black and you can see the layer of gold on the steel but it's not as severe as that pic of the black one.
I know this is technically a flaw but if you are considering buying this watch Dont let it hold you back from getting it because on the wrist it is next to impossible for anyone to see the sides of the sel.
Here are some pics I've taken with the watch in different lighting and also how the side of my sel looks:
