Looks like the standard Motors to me, just in one of the less common / popular colours (grey violet).

On my screen, there is no purple. There is almost the colour of the anti-reflective coating. When I looked at it, I thought, WTH it's black not purple. Then everyone says grey-violet. WUT?! The ad is crap as well.

I think it's a lighting issue. Blowers has one for sale which just looks grey to me.

This really is a dial that changes colour in different lighting. The purple is probably a truer colour, but it is not an intense purple. The grey in the Blowers photo really does need that shallow angle to come out.
