I sold my Daytona Z, now got a V, but subdials look different!

Is it me, or are the rings around the subdials more shiny and silver on the V version of the Daytona? I recall my Z Daytona being more of a titanium like color. This is on a black dial 116520. Please help.

No, I'm pretty sure they are the same. Why did you get the same watch just with newer serials??

I sold to raise cash. Then had sellers remource. I swear the sub dial rings seem more shiny and silver on the V than what my old one used to look like. I compared this to my friends white dial, and his has more of a titanium hue to it.

Hmm...that's interesting. Now, I'm interested in seeing what others have to say. I had a D-series before, but I never took notice of this.

might be in my head, but who knows. I would like someone who may have a V and a Z side by side to chime in.
