Could We be Confusing "White" / "Silver"??
In Response To: Re: White Faced Monaco ()


could there be some confusion about white dials, silver dials and something called "starburst"??

This same confusion occurs in the Autavia world, and just this morning I learned that different executions of the Siffert Autavias (Reference 1163T) actually had different shades of white paint.

H-E-L-P!! There is only so far that you can take this "field guide" / "recognition guide", before it becomes an "idiot's guide".

Just a thought (or two).
