A blue is just a blue???
Is the blue dial on the ROC 26320 ST exactly the same blue as the blue dial on the 15400 ST?
Can someone post them side-by-side? |

I'm not positive, but I believe the ROC blue and 15400 blue are the same and the 15202 blue is definitely different.

AP uses a different shade of blue in every reference they make. The blue is different in the ROC and 15400.

Any insights into the blue changing on newest versions? Saw these comparison shots: http://www.network54.com/Forum/35339...ird+Dial+Color

The bold printing and the contrast on the darker dial really makes it lose a lot of sophistication. Also the bezel looks thicker and goes all the way to the lugs where the one on the left you can see the usual space before the lugs

On second look Maybe its just the lighting in the pics, subtle angle change from 1 watch to the other, as you know there are lots of texture & shadows on that dial.

I think they're both real, never seen a good fake of this - now the 15400 you have to be very careful about.
