How can I control? I've seem a black limited edition X100.

You're fine with the black model, it was only released later in the X100's run, some time after the "sticky aperture blade" problem was known about and resolved.

"SAB" was caused by a defective batch of the motors used to drive the aperture - Fuji repaired affected cameras for free at the time - chances are that any X100 working ok in 2017 either had the repair or never needed it in the first place.
