i know things
well, no. i know the lighting thing. in my case, the carbon is just not the quality of these 55 & 35. yes, mine has the reflection thing as i rotate it in the light, cool. but the carbon layering and quality is not nearly as good, you guys would call it BAD. i call it "good enough", as i don't buy a watch solely based on closest to gen. i decide what i like of gen, then look for the best i can afford in rep, if its good enough, i get it. that is where i am at with all of mine. as flawed as mine are, i still enjoy them, as they "represent". the McLaren, i would have bought better if it was available, AMO told me mine was the best he could get.It's the lighting he used. Low light with high flash makes the NTPT reflective. But it doesn't look like that regularly.
now, another question i have, the finish. as in flat, satin, matte, gloss. what does gen have? mine was quite flat, the black looked dark grey, kinda yuck. so i put a little polish to it and it looks much better, the black is actually black and the orange pops somewhat. all in all, i am happy with it, for the price. again, i would have bought better if it could be had.
