This site does have it with champagne colored or 'brownish gold' fonts

Yup. All the other pics I also only see white. But I have seen one or two champagne colored. I'll Try and find it.

The older versions had a lighter shade of champagne date wheel but it is only white on all models for the 40mm. But if you look at the rep champagne dial, the date window is smaller than all the other DD40s leading me to believe they got lazy and just used the dial out of the old DD2

Ya I noticed that as well Dorn.. which is why I opted for the equally stunning silver dial. Was the safest option for me and I personally think it's the nicest one out of the bunch.

Check how nice the silver looks:

Looks good mate. I got the YG black motif dial. It still waiting on QC pics

Is that last pic of the silver rep or the gen? Font of the days doesn't look as huge as on the others. Either way looks great

To clarify - that pic is a GEN, I just couldn't find a proper close up of the BP rep! Can't wait to post pics of mine once I receive it.

Did you get qc pics yet?

Not yet my friend.. I only sent the payment to Toro today, I think it's realistic to wait a couple of days before receiving my QC pics.

I know. Bloody TT. This is why I stopped using them years ago but thought I'd give Andrew another chance. Obviously a mistake on my part.
