This new style of display makes for greater character clarity and, when not in use, forms a smooth, homogenous black surface that gives the interior an added level of modern elegance.

In other words the cluster produces a bright white readout during the day for visibility, and then turns to a soft orange glow at night. This technology can also be found in the modern Merc S-Class and other Japanse counterparts. Nightime pic below. This is one the most elegant well designed interiors I've laid eyes on!

Check this web site- click the 7 series multimedia highlights, then watch the "on the road" video. It a great visual!! http://www.bmw.com/com/en/index.html

It looks absolutely stunning.

From what I can tell so far, the only change they applied to the 760 instrument cluster over the 750 is that the bottom of the two chrome rings show up in blue rather than white (to simulate the chrome).
