I don't want silver calipers or a silver headset. Black is king.
I'm interested why it would look better with a silver/pewter headset? Wouldn't it be weird if all the other bits are black?

Sorry, misunderstood previous posts, thought you were considering silver calipers, i think the black groupset looks great.
I have a silver CK on my Argos and i can switch between black or silver finishing kit nicely with that. As others have said i think it might match the lugs nicely but also the downtube bosses and cages. I also think it could maximise the impact of the wheels and groupset by keeping the frame looking than much more classic.
Note the use of might and could, it's a killer build that would be hard to improve on

It would look weird. Look at my De Rosa from the previous page. It’s either all black or all silver imho (regarding headsets).
I bought a 2nd headset in black even though the 600 was fine only because it bothered me so much.

This is lovely, personally i wouldn't change anything just for looks whilst the handling's out. If you want silver calipers DA 7900's might be good modern option. The only thing i'd change for looks would be the black headset to a silver/ti/pewter option (you'd probably want this if putting a silver stem on). But then again if i'd just forked out for a CK i wouldn't want to change it!
