It's a difficult problem which I'm dealing with as well, though mine are Tremper supersnow (possible) eclipses. Here's what I came up with:
If the gecko clearly has a white blaze on its nose, I'm comfortable saying it's an eclipse
If the gecko doesn't seem to have a white blaze, I'll either say it's not an eclipse, or, if I'm not sure, I'll market it as possible eclipse.
I've produced 4 so far this season and sold one. I sell the ones that I'm sure are eclipses for $100 and will probably sell the "maybe"s for $75.

Unfortunately I think Aliza is right on this one. Once you breed for a while and get to know what the differences are in your lines between super snows and SSEs you may be able to say one or the other with confidence. If you're unsure it has to be proven out by breeding back to an eclipse or I would sell it as a probable possible eclipse if it looks to have a blaze. All of my super snows hatch with white legs and white noses and none are eclipse so I would hesitate to call it one until you know what your pair produces. Good luck!!

What was the pairing and do you have pics from when it hatched, too? And now recent pics?

As far as I can see, it is not albino (because of the black dots), so it can not be super radar. About eclipse it is hard to know by now. Could you tell us the parents?

It looks like the eyes are red, so it's likely that the dots are dark brown. If the eyes weren't red, I would agree. If I'm seeing the eyes wrong and they are black, then not albino. But sometimes the brown is so dark on some bells that it looks almost black in pics. I have a couple like that.
