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.

My favorite blue, just based on the dial and not how it works with the rest of the watch is the smurf, however the Sunburst is amazing as well

Just based on looks, probably the new SS SkyDweller. Not sure how that blue compares to the DJ or YM, but love that whole package. Although I would have to see how big it fit on my wrist before actually buying it.

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