As shown, Turnbull colors are predominantly a deep blue and are nearly always recognizable as his. My personal preference would be to see more ‘rust-red’ sheen in the mix. This is not to say Turnbull colors aren’t beautiful and well done!

It is difficult to find someone who accurately can replicate original Parker case color. That is why I suggested folks to show their ‘re-cased’ guns, when done and by what shop.
