Daytona 116500. Dial matte black?

I've been looking at many pictures of the new black ceramic Daytona and to me it looks like the dial carries the same matte color like the sea dweller ceramic.

Anybody agree?

The reviews I've read have said that it's glossy and almost looks enameled (which it is not). I guess we'll all find out this summer.

Thanks! Do you think it looks the same as the black on the 116520 then?

To me, from the photos and videos I've seen, it looks the same. But seeing it in person will really be the only way to know for sure. Can't wait!

Probably the same as on the 116515LN yet silver instead of Everose.

Oops, thought you were referring to the outer bezel. My bad (wish we could delete posts).

For sure has an inky, glossy appearance, VERY different from the SDC dial.
