Blue watch blues

For the last week or so, I’ve been working the web, having had a fancy for a bright(er) blue dial automatic watch with a 36/38 diameter and a comparatively slim case.

Longines, Bulova and Citizen have nice colours. They also don’t have a ‘day’ feature, which I’m not keen on, although I’m happy with a ‘date’.

I’m reluctant to splash cash because I know that it’s an impulse buy rather than a dream watch and I was going to invite suggestions from OF.

Anyway, I then realised I actually had one tucked in the back of the sock drawer that ticked quite a few of the boxes …. and that it’s an Omega



So, I’m going to sit on my credit card for a while but, in the meantime, if anyone has any suggestions ….

I'm sure I 'stole' this picture from here, but I can't remember the owner.

If you're searching, please find one of these for me too! 🤣

I've never come across anything else similar. Lots of Longines blues seem to be damaged. I think a bad reaction with blue dials and lume seems common with many makes.

I’m a big fan of Longines Admirals too



(PS. The bracelet is an aftermarket from AliExpress)
