Dial text differences between 116613LB and LN?

I was wondering if anyone knew why the text on the blue dial TT sub is gold coloured, while on the black dial its white?

Its the same for the all gold 116618s.

the 5 digit TT's and all gold subs had gold text on both the black and the blue dial.

More curious than anything

Thanks in advance if you know

I don't know but it is one of the most appealing aspects of the blue dial, just work perfectly together.

One of the reasons why I'm saving for the LB over the LN

Had a 16613LN and the gold print worked well, loved it. Now got a 116613 and the gold print is ace too. I guess they needed a little more contrast with the big white maxi markers on the 116613LN(?).
