Ritchey is doing its level best to confuse the marketplace. Their web site and many places on the net would suggest there are both a Pro and WCS model of this crank generally available in the US. The WCS is the model with the partly polished crank arms and black outer and silver inner ring as installed on the Dbrk Big Leg Emma. Most of the places on the net show the Pro model with black arms and silver rings. Excel shows the Pro on their site but is actually shipping the WCS. Aebike.com shows the Pro and describes the Pro.
According to Johannes at Ritchey all compact cranks in the US are the WCS model. I was just curious because aebike has 'em for about $125 and the ones at Excel are $200. I ordered from aebike and will be anxious to see what shows up at my door.
Obviously have not done too good a job of breaking the bike buying habit.
