That makes sense Paul.
In Response To: Re: Not tropical, simply brown ()

I didn't think this colour was original but it explains why we see so many of these 'brown' dials. One slightly puzzling thing-these earlier dials were termed as 'charcoal grey' so you would have thought had a grey tinge, not brown. I guess from a marketing point of view a 'charcoal grey dial' is better than a 'brown dial' perhaps....
Best,

: Gents, this series of Camaro dials are all the same with deep brown
: base with contrasting black sub dial ring.
: Thats how they would have left the factory. There are only a
: handful of Heuer dials that go "tropical" and this is
: not one of them.
: This does not change the fact that they are beautiful dials.
