I just recently sold this aaaabsolute stunner! 

[FLwatchguy73]

No way I could have sold that one ! Did you get another to replace it?

[MattWatch]

Ah, i have maaany many watches to replace it! That was actually a buy - restore - sell job, but must admit it was quite hard to part with!

I'm so glad this topic popped back up. I'm new here and hadn't seen it. Blue is probably my favorite dial color, in contention with champagne.

Even so, looking through my collection I appear to only have 4 watches with blue dials. Then again, my collection seems like it's probably puny compared to some of you here.

In order of acquisition:

Seiko SNKK45 ("Seikonaut"):

Seiko SNZH53:

Grand Seiko SBGA375 (it's hard to coax the blue out of this one - it looks black most of the time - had to get in bright sunlight for this picture):

Bulova Precisionist 96B257:

I was looking through all of these and realizing that so many watches look quite pretty with a blue dial.  I do not have a single blue-dial watch.  I may have to rectify that. 

[Flubber]

Thank you for this. I love blue and even my car is blue. Beautiful watches you guys have and I'm impressed with how many nice, blue watches, Seiko has made thru the years.

My blue watches in no particular order. Hmm, apologies for the hairy arms. Never knew that was rhe case but the again I haven't taken a lot of close photos of them (the arms that is) before.

It needs a bezel, but I’m working on that...

Is that the same watch as in your avatar ? The "avatar watch" has a bezel so were did it go ?

[Tudor]

Avatar watch is a black dial 1978. 
 

This is a blue dial 1976.

My only watch, not a real seiko, I bought it specifically for the brilliant "turquoise" color to go with the inlay I did on the watch tips in the band.

Seiko SNKP23 watch ordered from USA, arrived UK yesterday. Changed the strap to leather. 7S26 movement. Very pleased with it.

Latest offering from me, this Seiko 4823-5017 from March 1976....

Now fitted with a new crystal and paired with a nice blue genuine croc strap...

('Slight' improvement over seller's eBay picture........)

Ooooh, that's purty.

The crystal on this 404 club blue dialled Accurist got swapped this evening, so I figured it was time to show off the improvement. 

It is a complete smudge and dust magnet now, as you can see. No sooner had I popped it on my wrist than it was sporting a big thumbprint and some instant air bourne speckles. Despite all that, the blue dial is pretty impressive without all of those distracting scratches.

Here it is under the inspection lamp, with the old crystal for comparison.

Mine even has Blue in the name !

My eye catching blue dialled Limit branded Tissot 2030 quartz mechanism watch.

The same caliber was uses in the Tissot Seastars from this period (around 1977).

I finally got round to replacing the crystal on this rather nifty sunburst blue dialled Orient 21 jewels "Crystal".
I'm not sold on the strap, but it will do while I complete the testing of it.
