    Just have seen recently a 5002 with a gold frame date window and have been asked several times if I have removed it from my 5002. So far I was not aware of a BP with a gold frame date window, neither the 5002 or the platinum versions. 

    Have I missed something?

    The frame is not gold.  Sometimes, it is a photographic illusion.  There can be reflections making the frame appear diffrent.

    Thanks Bill, that explains a lot and I was hundred percent sure that I know the BP models quite well.
