My only blue faced watch, not worn it for years though and I’d actually forgotten I owned it.

My gardening/diy blue watch. Had it for years and it seems to stand up well to being knocked about.

Thought I'd try a new strap on my Casio....I think it suits it.

That strap looks great on your watch. It highlights the light blue accents on the dial and seconds hand very well.

I changed the bracelet for a leather strap today as well and must say I'm happy with the way it turned out.

My blue choices:

VC historique complete cal moon phase wearing a custom strap from Aaron Bespoke. I absolutely love this watch and happy to wear it with shorts and a tshirt. I don’t think it should only be worn formally.






Next up is my IWC AMG collaboration. This came direct from my friend who managed to get one from the boutique in Toronto and then sent it to me as a $5 gift to the Philippines smile





Moving on to a 26480TI sporting a blue croc strap instead of rubber





Finally we have a bluesy

My wife bought me this a few years ago, I've recently re-found it after moving house recently and it's quite nice in fairness.

It’s actually almost impossible to really see how blue it is in photos.

I do like blueness on watches. Here are my two:

This one I loved from when I first saw it in a Top Gear Watch suppliment many years ago. It seemed to disappear from stores after a short while and I thought I'd missed the opportunity, but then saw it a couple of years ago in a Tag shop, so bought it as didn't want to miss it again! Really like it.




This one I purchased last month from the Jet2 in flight magazine shop. I wanted something fairly cheap that I liked, which I could use as a holiday watch (i.e. something that could be invaded by water slides, sand and sea - and survive). This fit the bill perfectly!

I really like the look of the Le Forban Malouine, with the navy dial. However, I just acquired this instead, figuring it’s much more universal for a daily (sorry, photo doesn’t do it justice, it is a blue dial, honest!)



Thing is….much as I like it, I think it’s a fake. What’s the consensus on the etching on the rotor?



The serif on the Fortis font doesn’t ring true either, and the machining on the movement retainer just seems off.
