Can you Identify this Tartan?

I may have an opportunity to acquire another kilt rather inexpensively (which might mean I don't even want it). Can you, kind members of the Rabble, help identify this tartan for me?

Unless I'm missing a stripe somewhere, it's BlackWatch.

I can not see the stripes within the blue, but I would guess black watch as well. If it were me and it fit, I would pick it up at a good price! I have been wanting a black watch kilt.

Thanks, guys. The image quality isn't great, and neither is my tartan ID expertise. I figured there would be some folks here who could do a much better job. I really appreciate the info. I'm currently trying to get some additional info from the seller to see if this is something worth getting in trouble with my wife over.

Good luck with that, Minus HD.

Specifically, the version of the Government Tartan worn by Officers of The Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders, and now by The Royal Regiment of Scotland, with the pale green.

(The tartan worn by The Black Watch had a much darker green.)
