Titanium. Titanium pieces have sandblasted texturing between the polished components of the bezel.

Many high-end timepieces lack the hacking feature, including VCs. Doesn't bother me at all. |

Just got my 2018 Overseas back from a full service from the VC Boutique in Manhattan. (No polishing).
After six years it had started to lose about 15 seconds a day. Even though it was out of warranty, they comp'd the service. Nice. |

Looks great after six years!

I traded for mine, received it new but outside of regular warranty. It was running slow and needed a link so I sent it in for service. Same deal with me, took 16 weeks but was returned complimentary plus the link fee. I was really surprised and each step along the process was professional and very pleasant. Came back in a nice little travel pouch to boot. |

Right now, this is the one I’d choose as my retirement gift to myself. Though I have a few years to go and reserve the right to change my mind… |

Both dials are stunning, of course, but there's something more magical about the earlier dials, IMHO. (I've owned both variations.) |

Nice VC trio.
Here the “family photo” of my 3 VCs in my collection. Funny how they are all different from your 3 but the two trio are also very similar…

Old vs newer blue

The attached shows images my 7900 in comparison with a 2018 and they look quite similar. Seems to depend on the intensity/angle of light. They are all beautiful and yours looks great! |

Two photos below, albeit in different lighting, show the main differences. First photo is the older brighter dial with turquoise highlights not found on the newer dials. Second photo shows a newer dial with the much darker highlights. |

Looks great! I’m considering the 5500v reverse panda as well but have never tried it on. I Concerned it might be too big. I also have an AP Diver and a Rolex SD43. Would it be similar to those on the bracelet? Or be even larger? Thanks! |
