·How many different shades of Gulf Blue can you point to on that 917. Both the colours of the new and the old Formula 1 are on there.

Compare these pics:
A pic I took of the Gulf-Porsche 917 at the Porsche Museum.
Rob's try on pic, albeit under bright lights. But there was also a bright spot light on the above car at the museum.
OTOH, the Monaco Gulf CAW211R's stripe is slightly too dark.
The rest TAG Heuer's Gulf models have the stripe in pretty much the right shade of blue. But the shade used on these two are off.

·Of course it depends on the lighting. But the new Gulf F1's light blue can appear very light, so much so that @abrod520 mistook the outer dial circle to be white.

Your photo from the Porsche Museum just emphasises how amazing the blue is. Thanks for adding that too.

·Nearly as funny as Nicholas Biebuyck saying the new black Carrera having the date at the 12 was a mistake.

·Check out the video on my blog today. Even though he goes on to say it's not that big a problem, it's hardly 'on message'....
