Might be out of budget but has a silver dial and blued hands.

Thanks, that was one of the ones i could remember and lust after! I have remembered now, Stowa make a lovely example in the form of the marina.

What about the Omega Broad Arrow? White faced with gun blued hands? A classic imho;-)

The Stowa Marine Original is what you are thinking of - white face and blue hands. In fact blue hands on watches like this are plain steel. The blue effect comes from flaming the steel to create very precise oxidation in that colour. It is incrediby vivid, but not painted.

Stowa MO is certainly correct.

I'm sure there are many watches with blued hands against a white dial.

Others that come to mind are the IWC Portuguese and Regulator - both available in that style; several Dornblueths, etc..

Breguet originally did 'blued' hands on their pocket watches, no? Still a feature on many of their wristwatches today. Yum.

Fortis B-42 Marinemaster has a blue second hand - HTH :-)

Thanks guys for that, it has certainly opened up my choices.
