Yes. Inserts that are faded by salt water or bleach are usually more blotchy and Un even. While the sun faded ones are usually even. Of course there are exceptions.

The insert on my red has it as well. Looks almost reflective or metallic silver.

put it onto a NATO for the weekend. First rivet bracelet I've had on a watch and I must say, it makes me nervous. Seems so light and flimsy - sure it will be fine, but feels safer on a NATO
