I have the black one from the first batch and I believe that this color is in line with its 'tactical' design. The chrome finish is nice but IMO better suited for a less aggressive design.

The NDI must be black, just as a Ferrari must be red.

My NDI is black but my Ferrari is yellow... :naughty::laughing:

OK, maybe I am color blind, but my NDI isn't black. It is a dark pewter - which looks like a dark metalic grey with a hint of green in it. We might argue what we call this color but it certainly isn't black. Whatever color you call it, I prefer it to the silver. The darker color gives it a more military look; the silver a bit too flashy for the military or my tastes.

do you have the first model with the bright light decal on it?or the new one withought it.

I think the first defenders had a pewter finish but the more current or new ones are black.

I have 2 NDI's. One was from HKEquipment without the head imprinting but with narrow threads. The second one came recently from TAD with the wider spaced threads. Neither is what I would call black.

If you have an NDI, look at the rubber switch boot. That switch boot is black. The body of the light does not match that color, does it?

 

[Fallingwater]

You're quite right. I really meant "dark".

bling has no place in tacticool operations :nana:

I think you're right; look at the photos below (compare the kinda-black Nitecore Defender Infinity to the true-black wristwatch).

The 'black' one is like this:

The 'silver' one is like this:

That black watch looks awesome. When I looked it up I almost died.

$5250!

Yeah, I know the feeling. I don't get any closer than online photos.

But it looks like a bargain compared to the other watch (platinum), which is $250,000!

Even if I had the choice ...I would have picked black due to its a tactical light,just my prefrence.
