Good point BlueIris, the blues do start with 4 in the color code, so that maybe 'dark navy'...

colors that start with 4 are in the blue family, such as the dark navy. Even though it is a blue, it really looks black. There was a dark navy Roma on eBay recently that the seller identified as black. Night is in the black/grey family and starts with a 1.

carrera - The dark navy (identified as black) Roma that was on eBay is: http://cgi.ebay.com/Authentic-Botteg...ht_7938wt_1167

Look at the pic with the logo stamp. That is the only one where you can see the bag has a hint of blue.

yes... the photos are a great help. They all look just like normal black to me. Also, I got hold of the BV's catalog booklet and i saw a comparison page under the men's section... nero and dark navy... if i were to put into words... Nero looks like a warm black, dark navy look like the cool black.... but then again... maybe the lighting played a part when the photos were taken.....
