Lol, is a beauty eitherways, doesn't have to turn brown.

On a tropical note, I have seen many sellers claim their watches as tropical and expecting a huge premium even when they have a slight hint of brown which is playing on the grey area of calling it tropical(I don't mind those watches being called slightly or mildly tropical) , to me a true tropical dial should be a clearly visible light brown like in links below and are the ones that command real collector attention
