Black Bay Bronze dial question

I got the latest V6 BBB last week and it seems almost every time I look at it, it looks like a sterile dial. Is this normal? Is the gen like this too?
Strangely, when I photograph it, the text and logo are visible.

Gen is not like this. I assume its the print they use and the lighter dial shade that makes it hard read.

So all reps are like this and it's not just a case of me getting a bad dial?

There is a slight difference between the two dials (of the two rep factories) from what I recall but neither really change the problem with hard to read text. Some light is better than other of course but it's what has stopped me from buying one. It's just a big difference from gen. Everything else looks fantastic though.

Just wear it for while and see if you can get used to it. If not, you can sell it M2M

Gotta say though. It exceeded my expectations regardless. It's a beauty.
