DJ41 - Real life pics showing off the sunburst dial

I'm pretty close to making the DJ41 in black my first Rolex, and I've been reading that the DJ41 comes with a sunburst dial. I've tried on the black dial with smooth bezel twice in different AD's, and haven't been able to see the sunburst effect. Maybe it was the store lighting? What confused me even more is that I asked one of the AD's whether it's true that the DJ41's have a sunburst dial, he looked at the watch and said 'nope'! I pointed him to the pic of the black dial on the Rolex website which clearly showed the sunburst, and he just looked confused.

Does anyone have any pics showing off the sunburst effect? Black ideally.

I guess it would be more difficult to see with the black dial, but sharing the photos I have.

Yellow lighting made the dial look close to Rhodium, with just a hint of the sunburst...


Natural lighting...
