Proposed name for new "aged" lume

I recently bought a PAM 359. As most know, this is a model with the aged lume.

I was sipping an espresso yesterday while wearing it, and I noticed that the lume color was quite similar to the color of the crema on my espresso.

Since Italy is also known for its love of espresso, perhaps it would be suitable to call this "crema lume".



I'll try to snap a few comparison pics later today.

Here's the pic.

Zero post-processing on the image. All I did was resize it smaller.

Sounds good to me.. I wonder how long would it take for the original lime to develop a patina like that.. Any way to speed up the process? Hehehe..

Moreover, since its a sandwich, do you think we can replace the lime plate with that aged one? Hehe..
