I think, even in precious metals, it's more of an even split:

While I love the Zenith-look, I do prefer the counter-contrast. I also love those six-digit Daytonas that are counter-contrast, but with counters having no inner printed track. I don't think any of the 12-series have that look anymore.

Thanks for posting that link. I was on vacation in July and completely missed your brilliant post. Fantastic indeed.
