Although I believe the owners of this fact, we still have no pictures (which I am sure are difficult to capture the effect, like chocolate dials, but which can be captured by a half decent photographer) which I, and certainly a lot of others, would love to see out of quasi-academic curiosity. So to me, saying this, means nothing. My 145.012 also has a glossy/satin/deep-black dial, but so far, in pictures, I can't see the descriptive difference between it and the ultraman dial. But I could imagine it, if I wanted to. Yes, the lume also apparently has a certain patina, but that particular batch of lume could have been used up on watches that happened to be lumed at the same time that it took to use it up and that coincidentally included some 'ultramen'... they are not the only watches of this reference to exhibit a caramelly lume (and not all of them had this color either) and the next mix of lume slightly different etc (i.e. the cook was a bit too heavy on the salt)...
