Coticule ID for a newbie

[Bandini]

I've just buyed this coti in a local store near my home. Can you identify this specimen?

I'm new to cotis so any advice regarding characteristics is welcomed!
Thanks!

The colors are a bit confusing. If you have a chance, could you take pictures of the stone while it's sitting on a piece of white paper? A shot more directly overhead might help too since the angle in the first picture might be causing glare (just a guess, I'm not a photographer). I want to say that it's a La Verte or a La Grise, but the dark lines on the side confuse me.

The light in this office is the worst possible. These are my best, hope the colors are right now:

Thanks!

That definitely looks like a La Verte to me. I bet it's slow but easy to use (and probably very hard).

By the way, welcome to coticule.be. I hope all is well with you in your country. I would love to visit Spain some day, as part of my heritage is there.

You're a lucky man to live so close to a stockist.

Welcome to Coticule.be, Bandini.

Thanks for your time danjared, hope I can learn the secrets of this specimen.

Welcome to Coticule.be!

La Verte is possible, but if I had to take a bet, I'd say La Grise. Similar to

After receiving my La Grise around noon today, I'm inclined to believe Bart. These La Grise of Regné resemble certain La Vertes too closely for me to distinguish them easily.

Briefly explored during 2009, which delivered a number of (mostly) large sized La Grises, but currently inoperative.

There's some more information in this post of mine:
