Determine the amount you would pay but would be extremely pi**ed to have to pay.
Multiply that amount by three to get the actual cost of the Porsche option.
Using this formula I estimate the cost of Yellow Deviated Stitching to be us$3000.

IMHO go for the full monty. Going for deviated stitching on only a few select parts makes the non-deviated stitching stand out.

If your getting a full carbon package, then what would be the "full monty" on the yellow deviated stitching ? I'd like to do the seats, dashboard, doors, door handles, middle console and rear side panels. With the carbon packages I don't think I can do anything else in the way of stitching (ie. the tiptronic lever/handbrake). What say you ? Anybody else done this yet ? This time I'm buying my turbo and modding it so I figure why not customize it (my 03 996 X-50 was a bare bones no frills machine).

The carpeting or the floor floor mat appears to have a color to match edging??? What is the exclusive option code for that?

What color is the interior shown in he link? (it appears to have just changed from blue to black! your earlier link showed blue rugs with whitish edging)

MMD I have seen the SC gauge with a black dial also.
I'm sorry, that's true. Black SC dial ONLY comes with base 997.
If you order "black dials" option in a 997S you still get the silver SC stopwatch.

This is wrong.
I was concerned when I ordered my car. I went for black dials and was told the SC wart would match the dials.
It did indeed.
They're not that dumb!

FWIW, The entire yellow this and that thing is passe.
Orange is the new color. Yellow is dead on arrival now.

OK, here are lots of pictures of yellow deviating stitching in a GT3, Alas, this GT3 order was a Groom Crime ! They did not study the options guide carefully and order the shifter and handbrake to match the yellow deviating stitching.

That's great news. But I have definitely seen a few 997S with mismatched dials. Did you specifically order a black SC dial, or did you just order black dials (hoping the SC dial would be black as well)?

When I was interested in getting yellow dials for mine, my salesperson showed me a factory bulletin warning everyone that the sport chrono dial would still be silver not yellow. So, there's only black and silver dials for that. I guess they're not THAT smart.

SC comes only in black or white unless you go through Exclusive dpt where anything's possible but takes more time.

When I visited Porsche in Stuttgart last summer I also asked the head of the exclusive department if it would be possible to order the SC dials in any other colors other than silver or black and he said no.
