Dynasphere Challenger Ball Set

I have a bronze set I like a lot. The cue ball not so much. It's got this pearl like look, I can't see it spin at all. Partly the ball, partly my vision I guess.
Buy the 6 triangle (Rhodium cue ball) if you want more visible spin feedback, they are only $25:

 
And the Vanadium set goes a step further by matching every single ball in the set down to exacting tolerances (e.g., matching weights within ±1.0g), unlike the Challenger set.
What do you mean by, "unlike the Challenger set"?
The tolerance is the same for both sets. Also, the Challenger set is the first set to be produced on a fully automated production line. It would be hard to beat the consistency of a fully-automated line.

From the Dynaspheres website:

Challenger:
Size57,2mm
Weight169 grams +/-1,0g

Rhodium / Bronze:
Size57,2 mm +/- 0,08mm
Weight169 grams +/- 1,0 gram
 
Those are the same specs/tolerances
Yes to same initial size spec, but the variance on the size is tighter on the Rhodium / Bronze given no variance is listed for the Challenger (otherwise, they should list it for the Challenger). Either way, I'll continue to pay more for the Rhodium given I like the cue ball and consistent circle around all numbers design.
 
Interesting they don't list a size tolerance.
On side note I have an unpopular stance. I'm partially color blind and love the new WNT set for watching on TV. I do agree they are not good looking but for the first time I always know what ball is what. I would probably never buy one for myself don't have as much trouble IRL.
 
The solids have the number in a circle, while the stripes don’t, it’s not the first balls set to do this, I just don’t like it.
I prefer the Centennials style of design
Also the the prints looks like its bleeding
I always thought the Aramith Super Pro's were a great looking set too.
