    Thanks all for these sharing these pictures. I've been considering blue for my first serious watch purchase. I think these pictures have helped convince me that (i) I really want blue more than I first thought, but perversely (ii) that it is not the right way to go for my first proper watch, which should be more universal.

    The Memomatic shouldn't be in this thread, of course, because it has only one third of a blue dial.

    The two, inner, silver sections carry the vestigial hands to set the alarm.

    Wish I'd never sold mine. But then it couldn't have been here, either, because the dial was grey. Cool, cool grey ...

    The Christopher Ward is the most interesting - to me at least; the dial seems to a different colour every time I look at it... for the first few days I was almost certain they had sent me the charcoal one, then the sun came out and I was baffled as to how I could have thought it anything but blue :)

    It's a shame the sky wasn't so blue today.

    Blue dials?

    Blue is the colour....
    Here's one for you John



    Funnily enough it was the blue dialled Portuguese that inspired me to change my order with Dirk. Very glad I did.
    It has to be the only blue dialled, white indices 99.2 with a hacking movement ever made I think?

    Here's a 1973 King Seiko Vanac.
    Typically 1970's with the electric blue face, faceted crystal and baton hands.
    In perfect condition.

    I can't even read the slide rule, let alone do the calculations, but I still think it's a handsome watch and I'd like one.

    Never really had a blue dial. Then I saw this in a shop window at schiphol airport and for some reason HAD to buy it. Never owned a citizen before but loved the colour scheme of the blue dial and greenish lume. It's got the same sort of dial appeal to me as the colour scheme on the blue yachtmaster (ok, slightly different case, I know) but was a few thousand euro cheaper and I had no problem wearing everywhere on a family beach holiday once I'd slapped it onto a lovely soft silky navy blue NATO strap I found lying in the strap box. 100 euros or so well spent.

    Lovely! I'm on a perpetual look out for the right one of these, but unfortunately keep getting side-tracked.

    A few of mine; for everyday wear I don't think you can beat a blue dial.

    Picked this up in a trade from Mart on Saturday. It's my first blue dialled watch since a Tudor Sub from eons ago.

    Pic borrowed from Mart, hope that's OK, I'm having trouble uploading on photobucket at the moment.
    Beautiful watch IMO, & wears just like a 42mm Explorer, supremely comfortable on my wrist.

    Some of my absolute favorite modern watches have blue dials such as:
    Rolex 116622 yachtmaster
    Rolex 116000 oyster perpetual
    Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra

    I'd have more blue dials than any other colour at this stage, not planned by any means, just how it turned out.

    I did start as I meant to go on though, with my first watch I got as a kid.



    The madness came later...





    Quite a bit of blue in this one;



    and a couple of Russians.





    And another early GP quartz.
