Hi guys,

I am in the mood for a blue dial but not sure which one I should settle for.

Am considering the Sky Dweller, the Daytona (although I already have an SS white and and SS black), the YM40 and the Nautilus.

Other ideas more than welcome!

I think I am leaning towards the SkyD (probably more reasonable in terms of budget and also less seen around) but all thoughts appreciated!

Thanks!

I'd love me a WG Daytona.

but since you already have not just one but TWO SS Daytonas, I'd "settle" with the blue face Nautilus.

The best blue dial watch is the one you want to own and wear,and its your opinion only that matters.

Smurf and WG Pepsi have very nice blue dials.

Here is mine:

I like the smurf but does it wear dressy? While I am comfortable wearing a Hulk, I find the blue of the Smurf a little less "subtle" for dressy situations. Am I wrong in your experience?

locutus49 · 4 October 2019, 02:43 AM

We don't dress up much in San Diego but I wear the Smurf on all occasions and, yes, I would wear it with a tux. But I have been called "an iconoclast and a pedant" so I tend to make my own rules.

I love my WG DD Lapis Lazuli.

It can certainly “go dressy” if you want (tho I usually wear it with jeans), and I believe there’s a YG one still FS here on TRF!

I have a both the yellow gold and white gold blue dial subs. But I still think this lapis blue dial takes the cake!

I like Lapis Lazuli dials. Beautiful!

Sorry, I did not see your question. Maybe too late but anyway, I wear the smurf in all occasions with no problem.

I find that watch to be awesome, but certainly not “dressy”

5711, Sky Dweller, DJ41 stick or diamond. I couldn't get the first two in a reasonable time frame so I got the DJ Blue diamond dial. Currently on the waiting list for a blue SD. I got the DJ41 jubilee with diamond dial so it would look a bit different than the SD if by a miracle I get it.

I personally find this gradient blue dial the most attractive.

The blue on the 5205 is also mesmerizing.
