6263 coffee dial

Hi everyone,

First time posting. Saw someone with a vintage 6263 with a dark brown coffee dial with silver sub dials. Was this a factory color, or faded tropical? The guy said it was his grandfathers watch. It was stunning! Any thoughts!

Welcome to the forum. If you post several good quality pictures I'm sure you will get several opinions.
