Too pickey?

New to Rolex and this site and deciding on what to buy. I really like the look of the TT Submariner black with one exception. It looks to me like the numbers and marks on the bezel are more yellow than gold. It looks to me like
Rolex tried to match the gold color and missed the mark. Makes it look a bit cheap I think. Have others noticed this?

They have many models to choose from if you don't like that 1.The new ceramic bezel 1 looks nicer in my opinion than the older model.No Rolex looks cheap and some of us pay a small fortune for old beat up,faded,distressed,scratched and worn looking vintage models.Welcome to the site I am sure there is a Rolex model you will fall in love with

I took a good look at it a few days ago and have no complaints. Just my opinion.

You can switch up to an aftermarket bezel on the TT black sub and keep the original for resale purposes , i am actually on the hunt right now for an gold numbered bezel because this yellow does look very awkward.
