Can you post a high Rez photo of this color in bright sunlight and overcast? TIA

Here is one. Cloudy-ish day, but plenty bright. No filter, iPhone 8 believe it or not.

Inside...so LED lights. I think this was my upgraded (LOL) iPhone 14, iPhone 8, no filter again.

The entire front and hood has PPF on it, just to level set. The rest of the car does not.

Gentian Blue pops under parking lot lighting. I am uncertain as to the type of light or the Kelvin color temperature.

Not my car, but here are some sun shots I saw on here when I was trying to decide on color.

Thanks. I also had a 911 in NBM. How would you compare the two colors?

My original choice for my 992 was to repeat my 997 NBM as it was still available at the time but I made a call late in the process to go with the brighter GB color. Some say it is too "purply" for their tastes but I wanted something that popped more in the sun. My other serious consideration was Chalk but I did not see Chalk in person before finalizing my order and wanted something a bit more fun, feeling that Chalk was more subdued. Unfortunately I can't have one of each.

It's a very dynamic color. Pictures don't do it justice. My Taycan 4S was in Gentian Blue.

Love this thread as I am waiting for my GB Turbo S Cab which is stuck at Emden for a few more weeks... I'll happily post up my pics when I get it, but this is helping me pass time until my car gets onto a ship

Blue gentian, I think it's the most beautiful color for this 992. In fact, during the presentation the 992 was in this color.
On the other hand, I ordered a PPF on all my 911, do you think the color will change? Thanks
