Icon10 Datejust blue dials

Are the datejust blue stick and roman dials the same colour, or are they slightly different?

I think they are different.
Perhaps some one can shed more light on this?

Maybe the DJ II is the one with differences between the blues?

OP, are you asking about new or older watches? I've seen (and have) a different shade of blue on an older DJ.

Depends on the reference numbers. On the DJ2 they're definitely different on the roman dial and baton dial.

Anyone got any pictures of a 116200 or 116234 with the first (top left) dial that TSW posted above?
