Is it White or Silver?
Come on guys....anyone else have this piece?....under certain light the dial looks silver...spoken to lots of people and it is so difficult to get it just right, but when you look at this dial under Halogen light at just the right angle it appears most definitely silver.....most of the time it looks white (which is fine)....is it just the texture of the paint????? what is it????...white first picture, silver second.....I know the second picture really does look just like the texture of the paint but really, in the flesh it does look very very silvery......still love it!!!!

My other minor concern is resale. Chances are I'll add cash/watches to it to upgrade to a 5205 down the road.
