Which Rolex watch with blue dial is your favorite?
Which Rolex watch with blue dial is your favorite? Mainly based on the color not the model of the Rolex.

Also I notice the blue Milgauss and 41mm blue Datejust dials looks the same in terms of color is that true?

No, the Milgauss blue is lighter, more sky and less navy. The blue subc is the most vibrant, more so than the YM and DJ which are actually quite dark indoors.

You have the hands strategically positioned so all the dial script in visible! Planned or chance?

Okay this watch may be the winner here. Not only does it have a nautical look but you can dress it up or down.
