Rolex can do blue
Rolex Green is great in its many iterations but for my money I'll take their blue! I've also had a blue DJ and love the blue SD and hope to be adding an ice blue DD40 in a matter of weeks.

The Bluesy is a bit too blue for me, but the YM40 does blue in such a cool & classy way.

I've just had the green light for a bluesy at my AD. I've always wanted the watch but...omg! It's gone up in price so much!
And I think it trades under rrp now.

Agree - my favorite is the blue on my BLNR or the blue on the WG sub. Also love the azzurro on the DJ. All beautiful!

Two great looking watches! Rolex does so many blues very nicely!

Just sold my Milgauss but it was a really beautiful watch IMO

I’m a big fan of their blue dials too. My 2 favs are the Smurf & the Smurf dial version Bluesy.

There are very good reasons to buy from the AD vs greys and the Bluesy is an iconic Rolex. Hope it works out for you!

This shade of blue is not as wide spread as other blues.

Absolutely agree! Rolex really does blue exceptionally well. The blue dials have a certain depth and vibrancy that’s hard to beat.
