Nice! I haven't yet had the chance to handle a British "best" gun.

From the third photo it looks like a lot of nice figure in the stock.

It sure does. I've had a few Parkers with a dark and aged finish like that where the grain and figure could hardly be seen. I had the wood only refinished and the figure pops now.
But, the British, being British, don't really care to overstate anything and they prefer dark, understated wood - even on their finest guns. .
