126610LV mark II gets a matte dial?

Anyone has their hands on this new model yet? It looks like a grayish matte dial compare to mark I

Why is everyone being disrespectful to OP? It does look matte, and that's a legitimate question.

To answer your question, the dial is the same as the previous 126LV and LN. The new rendering by Rolex is not accurate.

Wront. Bezel color is definitely different. Lighter more true to the original Kermit.

On Rolex website the dial color of the Cermit is described as "Black", which is the term used by Rolex for gloss black dials.

Matte dials, such as those on DSSD and DSC, are described as "intense black".

So, it appears that the new Cermit still has the gloss dial.

The image looks 100% better than it does in reality. Shame all professional models with black dials are not ‘intense black’.

Sorry, OP — look out for the SD4000

It’s because of the stock photo. The bezel color is the only change when seen it in real life.

It does. But its just a (poorly done) render. Its as if they took a short cut and just bumped the lightness setting on the Mk1 LV render.

You should have seen the meltdown some people had when the 126500 renders came out
