And in most of the pictures I've seen so far, the black on the insert looks blacker. It could be the show lighting or the contrast with the blue (or the maybe white numerals) but it sure looks like a deep dark black whereas the regular GMTc can often cast a greyish or silvery sheen (which I like btw).

I'd like to hear about this from anyone that saw it in the flesh.

Thanks. Maybe Rolex changed the recipe for the ceramic & numbers for some reason.
