Question on the 765 - did you consider getting the bezel numbers reprinted black? Or would that be heresy?

Jury is still out on that one , but I have some with painted black bezel numbers so I can switch watches whenever I want ;-)

The black looks nice , but the unpainted looks great as well , not sure what to do here so I'lll leave as is for now
