The dial is much busier so the blue is just not as prominent. So me the dj

Dials like these are typically pretty dynamic with changes in light. I would only make that decision by having them in hand and evaluating what “you” like best.

Wow hard to argue with that - I think your version (smooth bezel with jubilee) is the exact one I would get if I go this route

That dial is a way too busy for me. I like the DJ41 Blue/Smooth/Oyster. Might be my next pick up. Waiting on what Baselworld brings in 2020.

SuperOcean dial is like watching Hammy the Squirrel in Over the Hedge...just way too much going on. Love the simplicity and clean lines of the DJ and the blue dial is out of this world, eye catching...loved that video by Dougiebaby -- except I would go for the fluted bezel (which I intend to do after my Daytona purchase).

The Breitling's blue is eye-catching but the dial is too busy for me.
