I just love blue dial watches
It may be a lasting trend or it may be fading, I just love blue dials. They somehow jump to the eye much better than black dials.

Thanks, it is a Garrick S5, a British watchmaker. You can customise it at will. This particular one is a certified piece unique. A lovely watch at 39mm, 60 hours reserve, +3 sec/day accuracy, hacking seconds.

Thanks, it is a small Omega Speedmaster, Mark 40 triple date, 35.20.53.00, automatic movement, 38mm, +10 sec/day accuracy, this is remarkable after 15 years without service with that many complications.

I'm always a fan of blue dials. This watch embodies almost everything I like about a watch in blue.
