New ROO Navy vs Newer One

Well, I read in some thread that AP has changed the shade of blue; but couldn't locate it again.

Anyway, it's actually true. Here they are side by side.

I kind of prefer the old one. The newer one is a tad pale to my taste. What do you think?

I always though the new navy is pale... can the newest be more pale :)...

If the newest is on top I think it looks like more like the blue shade of platinum 44... shading is pretty bad on this pic...

I like the darker blue on the old one

I prefer a lighter blue, otherwise it will just look black a lot of the time.

I saw the older one today.

So far my favorite of all I've seen in person.
