Poll: what blue Dial Rolex would you add?

No wrong or right answer (please keep the buy what you want comments for another thread)

I have a few pieces (in signature) and I'm looking at 3 blue dial models that I can go with. I will be happy with any, but only want one. Which one would you add.

126334: batons with oyster (i put away a jubilee smooth bezel 126300 for my son when he is ready for it)

116400gv- z-blue

126622 : blue yachtmaster

116659SABR is my favorite blue dial Rolex. Blue skydweller 2nd.

Of your options, the yachtmaster. If datejust with fluted bezel and jubilee was an option, I’d choose that over yachtmaster.

Blue YM is such a great shade of blue!
It also has slim lugs and rounded sides and I love the red features on the dial.
can't go wrong!

If money was no option… 116659sabr would be on the list. I can go jubilee, but want more of a sport feel. I have the batgirl and daydate and I feel adding another jubilee will be too much with my collection. My only reservation with the yachtmaster is the bezel…. My wrist seems to be attracted to doorknobs when im wearing my watches lol.

Then Blue YM. Personally wouldn’t get it due to bezel but hey it won’t be mine. That blue dial is the best I’ve seen on a Rolex.

The one I just picked up today of course! Bluesy. I had the datejust blue dial, that is a great dial, but like it with the blue bezel as well. I figure if you go blue, mind as well go all in.

I do love the 5 digit Bluesy.
I thought the two-tone would be a bit too much, but that blue is just mesmerizing!
It’s fun for casual and for formal. Hard to believe, but it’s a great every day watch!


Now, I also have the John Mayer, Jr., 116509/Blue, but I really never wear it. (Please don’t give me a hard time about that….). Yet, it’s spectacular! My wife keeps telling me just to put it on, but I have to many other beautiful things, so I keep this one in the safe. One of these days, I just might surprise her!!


(Damn… I was all set to add pictures, but I can’t figure out how to do that dependably using TapaTalk!!. Sometimes it lets me add photos to the gallery and sometimes it doesn’t!!)

I’m picking up a blue 126300 (smooth / jubilee) from my AD this week. Really looking forward.

How long do you think the WAIT is for the blue sky? About to get my third watch from the same ad and may ask to be on the list knowing it may be beyond a year

The obvious choice for me would be the incredibly beautiful and not on the list Bluesy!

Honestly…..

Day Date (white gold/blue)
Sub (bluesy)
SkyDweller
Daytona (white gold/blue)

….would all be ahead of the options listed.

Not trying to be antagonistic but I agree. I can't see any of those options competing for wrist time with your current collection. The only one that will hold it's own is the Sky-D.

I'm actually in the process of pursuing a Blue YM40 myself. The combination of blue sunburst with red text and seconds hand works really well together for me.

Of the choices, I'd go YACHTMASTER but I'd really rather have the Sky Dweller
