Actually, the historically 100% accurate colours would be:

1) Reticle:

Daylight: Black
Nighttime: Green, due to radioactive mass in the wires placed on the lens

2) Bearing vernier:

Daylight: Black background with white numbering

Nighttime: Same but lighted with own lamp (white) and with a touch of the ambience light, i.e. if the conning tower is rigged for red, you would actually see the numbering in orange-red

Hope that helps
