I love these little guys and might just pick up both the coated and uncoated, but it will be a shame if they end up using the blue bezels. I much prefer the silver, but it looks like most people are voting for blue.
As shown in opening photo. A rival for my Maratac CR123.

Why not a gunmetal bezel?
Uncoated and silver from this crop of selections. I love me some patina on copper…
+1
Gunmetal is a good option.
I like bezel and clip in the same color
If gunmetal bezel: gunmetal clip
If silver bezel: silver clip

Uncoated might be slightly more appealing, but I would accept both, coated or uncoated.
Just don’t make the bezel blue please. And could the button be made out of copper too? plastic button on beautiful brass light is just wrong…

clearly unfinished is the way to go .
the upside of these lights is you could use them to fix the shut off valve under your sink and … use them to fix the shut off valve under your sink.

I’d take it uncoated with silver bezel in a heartbeat!

Olight really need neutral white option! Its mandatory!
I vote for coated and SS bezel.
I’ll take the one on the left just the way it is! Very industrial looking, or steampunk, which ever, I want it! Does it take a 18350? :~

I’m with you, that uncoated/ss or gunmetal whatever is the best option for this light. I’ve got the original black ano light and it does not take 18350. I wouldn’t expect this to either. 16340 works fine through.

Are the walls thick enough to take a brake cylinder hone to them and still have room for an 18350?
Regardless, I could justify a couple of 16340’ just for this light…

I think you’d be buying those 16340s…

Welcome. It’s really a great little light and the copper will be awesome I’m sure, but I really hope it’s not blue pvd…

Another reason for my vote on the unfinished copper
Antimicrobial copper-alloy touch surfaces can prevent frequently touched surfaces from serving as reservoirs for the spread of pathogenic microbes. This is especially true in healthcare facilities, where harmful viruses, bacteria, and fungi colonize and persist on doorknobs, push plates, railings, tray tables, tap (faucet) handles, IV poles, HVAC systems, and other equipment. These microbes can sometimes survive on surfaces for more than 30 days.

Antibacterial if unfinished, plus the patina can look so worn in without any actual wear….
Of course coated will look shiny for a long time, each has their own virtue…
