Is this 8F Overseas 47040 w/ ceramic bezel and flat-black dial a fantasy model?

Just found this at Trustytime. Seems like it was only added to their catalog two months ago.

Can't find much discussion about the 8F 47040, nevertheless this one. Also can't find this exact reference as a gen. Is this a fantasy model? Looks pretty good to me other than the cross is fat.

Right, but the deep stream is a gray dial with titanium bezel. This one is black dial with ceramic bezel. You can tell by the pics the dial is very much black and not a shade of gray.

Anyway, I would much prefer a dark gray ceramic bezel over the scratch magnet that is titanium, even if it's fantasy.
