Carrera Chrono Silver

Hello all,

I'm new to RWG and this exciting world. I picked up my first "real" replica (haha)a few days ago and after reading this site. I previously had a "cheapo" Tag Carrera that I picked up in Saigon while on vacation and loved it. Knowing what I know now, I think it was a cheap asian automatics movement, but served me well for a couple years of daily wear until I lost it when the band broke. So I decided to buy a new and improved replica from Josh. Picked up the same Carrera Chrono silver a7750.

The mechanics look and feel ok, but the dial seems a little odd to me. The 9 o'clock subdial seems very white against the silver dial. So white that it actually looks odd to me. It actually stands out enough that I wonder why the designers would intentionally make it this way, so I guessed it was a flaw in my rep. This topic was discussed awhile back on the following

So I'm curious if anyone has picked up on recently. If so, how does your 9 subdial look? Some of the pics from Colin's review shows it a lighter color, but still in the silver range where as mine looks like a white or cream. Anyone bought one recently? Thanks!

I also picked up the black one the same time I picked up my original silver. It was a crap copy but it surprisingly still runs today. When I say crap, I mean the outer bezel doesn't even have the tachy, but it's my beat up watch. Let's hope other silver owners chime in. Thanks.

As the lucky winner of the silver Carrera in the mega raffle, (thanks again guys!), I got it today and it does have a cream colored sub-dial at 9 o'clock. Beautiful watch I must say, and having never been a huge fan of Tag I was quite surprised at how much I like it.

The only visible difference I see between it and what Tag has on their site is that the bezel on mine is black and on the gen it's SS.
