BP, Angus and the Miyota one, I don't know the factories of the last 2 but from seeing the pics the Miyota looks the closest. I own the Angus one which I felt was better than BP.

Which dial color would you say is more accurate to gen black or white? I ruled blue out as I understand it is pretty off.

I'm also very interested in the answer to this question. Moreover, what's "off" with the blue one (a side by side pic would be greatly appreciated)? It honestly makes me slightly sad if the blue is so "off" since that's the one I was considering. Just awaiting a Miyota review before I make up my mind definitely.

Can anyone provide a high resolution shot of a mountain dial to confirm? My 2824 is awesome (angus) I want one in black, of the Miyota is of the same caliber quality and detail as the one by angus, if they really are the same watch with clasp and bracket excellence. Then I'm pulling the trigger.

This one should be white, silver or blue. Just my opinion, have the black BP version with swiss ETA but if choosing again would go blue or silver. Why? - because the AP DIver I can only get it in black anyway (and I prefer the Diver in black). Too many black watches already:)

Just picked up one with a Miyota movement from MR.

Gallery link is -> here
Movement link is -> here

Quite pleased with it. Definitely notice the lack of consistency in the depth of the bezel screws, with the one at 7 being the most obvious and practically flush, while the others are slightly recessed. Pretty great stuff otherwise.
