Any negative feedback on the blue dial?
Specifically for the 26320. Planning to flip my black to blue.
Can't see any disadvantage for the blue (versus black and silver), but you guys might have. If any negatives pop out on the blue I'm pretty sure it'll still net out better than the other 2 colors. |

No way! Far and away the best dial on RO and ROC but I can understand those who don't feel it's worth the premium.
Money is out of the equation I think it's an easy choice to go blue ![]() |

Money/price difference/premium not an issue. Just the overall look and feel versus the other 2 colors (moreso versus black).

Blue watches are the best, have a blue 15300 and a PP 5712, they go with any style and clothes IMO and look awesome, way cooler than silver or black.

Have to agree with everyone else, blue is the best dial colour for AP and PP in my view...nothing else compares as demonstrated by the premium and relative rarity.
Go for it!

I guess blue it really is! Would love to hear whatever negative feedback there is on the blue (versus the other 2) but it seems it'll be very hard to come up with one. So yes, blue it is. Hard to beat that.

There can't be any negative feedback, only people who might not love blue in watches, they will tell you that you can't wear it with anything like black for example, but that's not true, I wear my blue 5712 with anything and it looks awesome in any case scenario, so don't worry, just get it and I am 100% sure you will love it. Congrats in advance, blue is the way to go, especially with the RO models and the Nautilus ones on Patek side

I have two blue's on SS and LOVE them. There is a difference between blue's side by side though. Some have a grey tint, some are deep blue and some are more medium blue. Noticeable difference between my ROC and QP. The QP has much richer, deeper blue and can sometimes be mistaken for black in low light. The ROC is blue in all light and little more medium blue w/grayish tint.

Only negative imo is that it is usually priced higher. Since that's not an issue, easy choice!

For some reason and I am in the minority I never cared for the blue dials. The only blue dial watch I like is the Journe. I think they did it nicely. I don't like the blue dial on the nautilus or the RO. I think the original RO's blue dial was more a greyish blue and I like that better. But the bright blue they use now, to me doesn't seem very versatile. I think black and white are far more versatile. Though for the RO I'd go with a black dial and for the ROC I'd go white.

Blue is the only colour I would get and was prepared to pay the premium for it!

Your preference on the older grayish blue is a good one, makes it more in line with the versatility aspect. I think this new one adds a little more pop though, which I appreciate too. Thanks for your comments. Interesting. |
