Need help choosing a dial...

hi all,

I contacted Vac to do a custom build for me. Project will be a 201/a & 202/a non-matching dial. I am after a sort of burnt orange non-matching dial (numerals will be orange to replicate the oxidation of the tritium due to the varnish, while hands will be off-white due to not have the varnish). I have posted the dial Vac has below along with 3 other pics of gen dials for comparison.

My preferred dial is the LAST pics of the 202/a with the numerals being the MOST orange, at least to my eyes. I just want to try and match this color as close as possible which is why I am asking all of you for your take on which of these dials the Vac FGD dial resembles most. Can always try a different mixture to see if we can get a closer match.

It could be my eyes playing tricks on me but I would like others to chime in to give me a 2nd opinion of the TRUE color of the numerals and which dial MOST resembles the Vac dial in color tone.

OK please have a look and let me know what you think.
