Finally finished the bike and got a chance to take it out for its maiden ride. The paint really is stunning in person. I tried my best to capture it in photos, but didn't really capture it well. It isn't really a WW build, but at least it's under 15 lbs/6.8kgs with pedals and cages.

My local bike shop has one of these built up in the showroom and it is a superb looking bike in the flesh. I'm glad you've chose Etap!!! And yes, embrace the gold chain!! You know it makes sense!!
Good luck with the build.

Please dont go for gold cabbles! Chain might be ok, but why choose more "bling" when the frame has so much - I would go all black on cabbles, stem, handelbar, seatpost etc. Saddle and tape might be white, as long as they're the same colour its ok.
That is sharp. Is it a fleck/glitter clearcoat over the dark paint?
Is this a new model or a special run? I haven't seen any word of that, but then again, haven't paid too close attention to Specialized offerings the past few years.
Looking forward to seeing the final build. E-tap would be cool. Agreed on going with black housing & other stuff. Gold chain would be nice touch, but let the frame shine instead overall.
Really diggin' that badge.

Agreed!
I'd choose white bartape and saddle.
Congrats Harold! Beautiful frame. I haven't seen you in a while, hope everything is great. Miss riding with you.
I've seen this frame in the flesh and the key aspect of this frame is how much it stands out in the light. If anything, it pulls people in from afar w/ the WCS color and the up close gaze comes with the speckled paint...
Would keep everything black as you really don't want detract attention away from the frame.
