Those two are the best that I have heard of. Call them and discuss. Brad told me he was aware that different colors could be produced. Whether that could be done reliably is another story. There are Parker experts who say that nobody yet has exactly reproduced Meriden colors, but Turnbull and Bachelder are close. Others say they are dead on.

But this kind of detail and sublety would be difficult to reproduce. Yes, I need to straighten the screws.....they all work loose after a while.

My personal view may not matter, but I see a transluscence in original colors that I don't see in re case color jobs. Its even more pronounced on physical inspection in natural light.
