I love wearing mine! The different shades of blue it throws off can only be appreciated in person. I like that the stying is a bit quirky while still passing for conservative. And that all-18kt gold movement is gorgeous. Just a killer piece!

It is definitely the most intriguing dial I have ever owned. I still get lost in the different shades of blue.

I wish to be able to see one in person one day.

A few years ago I put on my "plan" the Royal Oak and the CB. I am financially not ready yet but if trends continue this way I will never be!

The dial is indeed incredible, going from dark blue to light blue reflection.
But most intriguing is when you see the numbers floating and their shadow deep inside the dial. You need to see it to understand what I am talking about. As no picture can show what the naked eye can see.
Never seen that in any other watch.

I have never seen one in the flesh, so I don't understand the strong following this watch gets. Nice, but I guess the pics do not do it justice, at least for me.

What others say is true -
It’s impossible to photograph the magic of this watch. You need to handle it and experience it in person

100% true. I never feel like I take a good pic of mine. But easily one of the best if not the best blue dial watches I've seen.
