I can find all the other colors but not this blue. Was this a limited release?

Hey thanks for the link - it directs me to googles homepage...I also noticed that its the watch on the front of the oyster collection e brochure but isn't listed on the list of watches in the brochure....

It is no longer offered since 2010 and G serial numbers - it is gone from the 2011 dials catalog.

But they are sold here and on eBay and other watch vendors on a regular basis - some BNIB as NOS.

Nodelicious · 26 December 2012, 06:45 AM

Ah now it makes sense. Thanks. Love that dial.

That is a beautiful color combo.

dysondiver · 26 December 2012, 07:38 AM

its striking , but i do wish they would put the numbers the right way up when you look at it on your wrist ,, simple pilot style ,,, but the colours are catchy.

joe100 · 30 December 2012, 10:23 AM

It was t really limited but unpopular. It lasted on until 2010ish but can still be found new at some ADs. Saw one in my travels not long ago

kier333 · 30 December 2012, 10:30 AM

Its hideous looking

joe100 · 30 December 2012, 10:37 AM

I think the blue/orange and the silver/orange were great additions to the line. I felt it was a step in a more modern direction for the typically conservative AK. The only downside to the orange dials was the fact neither had lume anywhere including the hands. In pilot speak, it was a true VFR day flier

vintagewaferthin · 30 December 2012, 11:57 AM

Love that dial!

ecsub44 · 30 December 2012, 11:58 AM

I'm pretty sure one of the ADs in my neck of the woods had one recently.

Rocco22 · 30 December 2012, 12:44 PM

There on ebay all the time.

kxux · 30 December 2012, 01:22 PM

My AD was showing it to me the other day when I was shopping for jewelry for my wife. Unless he sold it in the past few days it's in his display case. I'm sure they are still available.

biscotti · 30 December 2012, 01:28 PM

That actually looks very unique, I like it.
