To me transluscent looks more period correct for a 70's bike for some reason, but white looks better on most bikes. The nicest looking bottle I ever owned was a white one with big winged "C" Cinelli logos on it I got back in the late 80's. Sadly it outgassed it's plasticizers and cracked on me some years ago. Now if you can find them, sellers want big bucks for them....
