TT Blue Dials

Guys

I was looking on the forum pic gallery and one of our members has a newer lighter blue dial (BlueSub71) which was bought at the same time the dials changed. Compare this to the darker dial pics of my sub which follows. I think you will get the idea of the differing colors. I have taken my pics from many angles but still get the same deep blue hue, the camera doesnt do it justice, with the naked eye, my sub dial is almost purplish. The new TT Blue subs are lighter blue. The difference is more marked if you look at both dials with the naked eye.

I guess it doesnt make a difference, just a matetr of preference, but wonder why there is a difference in blue dials?? ceramic bezel coming out or maybe its hard to control the colour on the production line of the dials and could be a batch??

In fact, the latest batch of TT Blues that ia have seen (my AD had 3 new ones come in) were even more lighter then the first pic dial.
