PM Daytona Subdial Size Differences

I’ve been intently studying the last couple iterations of PM Daytonas, and maybe it’s me, but I cannot unsee the different sizes in subdials amongst them.

Specifically, darker dials appear to have slightly larger subdials than the lighter dial options. See picture below. And to me, aesthetically, the slightly larger subdials are much better looking 👀

Which is a shame because that sundust looks amazing despite its diminutive subdials! 🤣

🤔. I’ve noticed it on the ghost too. Perhaps it’s just my eyes playing tricks on me but there sure looks like there’s more space between those subdials.

I doubt there is, but agree my eye is seeing what yours is too.

They are all the same unless you use high magnification and depending on the person's eyesight.

I see it but believe it has to do with colors.
