I'm such a danged slow poke in my payment "system"--US snail mail (no PayPal) that I haven't gotten it yet unfortunately. I just PMed FM and he hadn't even gotten my letter (and payment) yet so, I'm sure I won't have it until next week. I do have an extra bezel that is the gunmetal gray HA which is a bit lighter and, on the purplish side as you have said. I'm going to believe that the 1D I do get, being from the same batch as yours, will be lighter as well. I'll let you know when it comes though.
