Hi Everyone, this is my first post on the board. I am form the NYC area and no longer a college student who thought Chinatown and Times Square reps were good looking. I am into Breitling and purchased my first starter gen a couple years ago. I have researched the rep market and must thank this forum for answering so many of my questions via search. I am ready to purchase my first rep.
I am hooked on the Breitling Avenger II Blacksteel GMT V2 rubber band from GF via a TD. I decided on this because of:
-I have a somewhat smaller wrist (just under 7"). This was a better choice for me compared to the bigger and bulkier Blackbird
-dark casing, sporty look and rubber band
Before I purchase after the CNY holiday and give the TD some time to get back into their normal operation, I wanted to just understand something I was unable to find an answer I was able to understand fully. Are these two watches the same color even though the descriptions differ from site to site?
I looked at Trustytime's site for this watch and it is described as the "BSW0400A - Avenger II GMT BlackSteel DLC/TI/RU Black GF V2 A2836".

The description on Chazingtime for this watch does NOT have "Blacksteel" but has DLC listed. Now I somewhat understand that DLC is the name for the finishing process? And the description on Trusty does not have DLC. I am just hoping the casing is the same darkness on the below watch.

My main hold back is trying to understand the difference between the two descriptions? Is the Chazing watch more of a lighter case color (which I do not want) or just camera angle compared to the Trusty pics which make the piece look like a darker steel (which I do want) color.
I appreciate any input before I pull the trigger. I will be sure to document my timeline of the purchase, QC, shipping and unboxing on this thread or on the TD section of the forum. Thank you.
