Recently I've been bitten in a bad way with a 1911 bug, coupled with a need to buy a 45th POTUS MAGA gun. I've decided to buy 2 Dan Wessons, a duty coat VBOB and either a Stainless Valor or SB. 

With what I've read so far it seems to me that the SB is a Valor with a few nice additions such as - ball cuts, adjustable night sights, recessed ss hole, duty coat frame. 

Is there any functional advantages to the Valor or does it come down to cosmetics?

It's cosmetics and features. Pick whichever one you like better.

SB is built to the same tolerances of the Valor.  I have both and if they were both in 45 I would choose the Valor but only because of personal preference.  You may consider doing what I did and get the Valor in 45 and the Silverback in 10mm.   Both are fantastic weapons.

I had a Valor, and it was OK. I could not get it to group consistently, and that may be due to my eyes not liking the rear sight. I bought a custom Silverback recently, and I have to tell you how much I love it. I had it done all in Duty Treat, added a short trigger and a magwell. It is phenomenal!

Silverback all day every day!
