Just ask the TDs for OF aquaracer with gen selitta. send them a photo of the one you want. They have a lot of variety. I get mine from SEAD

I see the same effect on mine. I think its just a glare though...Here is it

On a different note. Are the center of your hands painted black or are the just polished silver? Mine are polished silver which is another miss for ZF.
The workmanship is not optimal. I did some work under the incident light microscope... I broke all the edges of the watch and all the edges of the bracelet with a ceramic stone with 3000 grain. Now the watch feels better when worn. I noticed that the titanium alloy is very soft. I'm not used to that from titanium.
I have had the gen bracelet with TUF-Pelagos 39. I can confirm that the gen bracelet has sharp edges.

Here you can read a

It varies a lot. Clean fixed their Explorer 2 dial in what seemed like under a week. But ZF has a poor track record, so I’m not exactly holding my breath.
I ordered the Thorn homage from AliExpress a while ago. Beautiful watch but it turned out to be only 37 mm (watch body) and 38,xx mm (bezel). Too small for me...
I just wish ZF would let me buy the bracelet for like 200USD. I have no issue keeping my TUF, but I'd love to be able to swap it onto a titanium bracelet every once in a while.
I think this is one of those situations where it's just best to wait it out, a v2 will come out eventually. I remember buying the 39mm BlackBay as soon as it came out with the long crown tube and mismatched lume, then sure enough the v2 came out and I was bummed. I can wait it out for the v2.
Just kidding, I'm ordering one with the trustytime coupon code for 8% off.

You can buy the whole watch for like $270 from nonTD. Maybe buy and then sell the head for 150?!

I'm not sure it would work well... I think the downfall of the TUF is the thick chapter ring which is attached to the dial. If you managed to swap them, you'd end up with an odd gap between the hour markers on the TUF dial and chapter ring from the ZF.
Just my thoughts.
I had my ZF P39 apart to swap in a SW200 with a no date setting lever and the chapter ring was definitely fixed to the dial.
