Why is the silver cheaper than the black or red?

maybe more are in stock than the others, hence the price drop. At first it wasn't cheaper, even was more at one point I think. Amazon changes their prices for many reasons, the market, product stock/availability, manufacturer and supplier suggested price/stock, current market price and demand. if you want one and color doesn't matter, jump on the silver.

I've had mine for 3 months already. To answer your question I think the black shows less wear than the silver one. A friend of mine introduced me to this product and he had the silver one. Although it looks sleek and cool, since it has brighter color than black I could easily see dirt and some wear on it. With the black, even with wear and tear its not that easily seen. I hope this helps.

I purchased this about a month ago and it was the same price as the silver one. Why the price jump'?

Mine was a black and purple watch. but I ordered the color I wanted. So if that is the color advertised that is the color you will get. They all work the same though honestly. So I don't understand why different colors cost more. I picked the cheapest honestly

I have silver and am very impressed with it, there was little difference in price when I purchased it. I could find no difference in the specs, so it must be the law of supply and demand.

It is black and the quality is better than the silver one I have ordered before.

I havnent noticed a difference in either of them. My guess is, solid black appeals to the majority of consumers than a bright orange, so they're charging more for the item with the most demand to make more money.

I ordered mine and it was silver, no issues. Works well.I do not think they make it in red, do they?

Probably the different colors, since Titanium generally cost more then black plastic.

I ordered the silver version with a "1-2 month wait" on 11/3 and it's scheduled to arrive today. Original estimated delivery was as late as Jan 5. It was $399.99 and I would have liked the black, but couldn't justify the price difference. I love how, for example, canon G9s are selling for way over retail and G10s are bouncing around $460. So order the silver LX3k from amazon, as they seem to have just gotten some in.

The red one seems to be a little thicker than the black one that I see here. I hoe that this helps.

The cost difference is that for a professional mechanic, or anyone else, the black color is the least desirable. I've lost several black flashlights in the interior of a customer's car. A black tool laying on black carpeting is invisible. Also, I believe it is more expensive to Anodize [electro-chemical process used to color the aluminum case] colors other than black. My advice to pick a bright color that you like and pay the extra money. It's worth the few dollars more.

Sorry, I have no idea why the black model is more expensive than the red. Could be the provider of the black paint is greedier.

I think so, I am looking for the same thing as you. I think the only difference is S is silver and B is black
