Opinion on this 16700

Looking for opinions on whether these hands should be color matched. Recently got brand new jubilee bracelet and it was suggested by several connections on IG.
Any opinions?

looks very nice and I like the insert too. You could get it color matched but that is definitely something you need to decide for yourself. My Dad is dealing with the same quandary at this point as he is getting his serviced. The disparity is about the same or even more pronounced on his. He was fine with it until I mentioned color match and then the wheels were turning…

Hi, Are the hands original and the same age as the dial?

Or are the hands changed out and that's why they don't match?

If they are original hands then I wouldn't try to get them color matched.

I think in any case, I wouldn't get them color matched and just leave them as is. But that's just my opinion.

Thanks..i am not sure if the hands are original. I have seen many GMTs like this where the plots are more beige then the hands. In fact i see it quite often. Just getting opinions from the forum. Thanks for your opinion.
