I'd have to guess the blues are exactly the same. Not sure they'd alter the chemical process to make a different shade... or could alter it that subtly, even.
The perception, however, next to red or black, can certainly make all the difference in how we see it and how the light interacts with both colors.
I'd love a BLRO, too, but don't ever see myself spending that much on a watch (absent winning the lottery!)... too many bikes to buy. :D
[edit]Or, since the BLNR starts out blue and the black is chemically induced and the BLRO starts out red and the blue is induced, maybe they are different!
