Paint Decision - Blue or Blue

[geebang]

My painter has provided me with my two doors each prepped and painted with my top two colour choices, Guardsman Blue & Viking Blue, to take away and make a final decision. The body has now been prepped and is in primer (approx one week from being ready for final paint). I've been pretty set on the Guardsman/Wimbledon striped combo from day one, even though every representation I have seen seems to be slightly different (understandably with photos). I am rather pleased with how my live sample of GB has come out and I think its still what I want as no. 1. I really like the way it changes under different lighting conditions. However... the Viking Blue also looks great in the flesh but don't think it would suit the W/W stripes (and I'm pretty set on stripes). I'm interested to hear what you guys think... I know they are fairly simple colours but I definitely want blue and something classic and period correct, and of course gorgeous/wow factor! By the way my wife thinks Viking is too light and silvery and likes the darker variant (OMG could this be the first time she has shown any interest in the build?)

My vote is for the lighter, however either one you choose will look great.

If I chose one it would be guardsman.

I like the Guardsman blue because its really close to my Regatta Blue.
Blue is my favorite color.
