Hi Some of mine with splashes of red



























Though hints of blue work well too - Saturdays on Seikos for example. Cheers JML

How is it that RED is such an attractive accent color?

 
 By: cazalea : September 10th, 2019-10:47
After seeing xxcesar's Seiko, and TimJ's Seiko, and the Rolex of vitalsigns, I realized how frequently we see RED. I did a quick scan through my collection and came up with this assortment of watches with Red accents: How many of us have watches with red ...  

I don't have that many...

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-10:50
Here is one which immediately comes to my mind... A bit more red... Even more red... Best, Nicolas ...  

I just found another one...

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-10:51
How could I forget!!! ...  

And a very discrete red...

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-10:54
I must really be attracted by Red, finally... ...  

A few more for me too

 
 By: cazalea : September 10th, 2019-10:59
Red against white Red against black ...  

Very cool, this Ikepod. [nt]

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-13:22

Oui! and it's independently adjustable for two separate time zones

 
 By: cazalea : September 10th, 2019-13:25
both hours and minutes can be set without restriction, making it a rare, true 2-zone watch for those 15 or 45 minute zones! Cazalea

Excellent! [nt]

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-13:44

Another one...

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-13:59
...  

And what about this one???

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-14:00
...  

That's a pretty good showing considering its only 3 minutes since I posted! Thanks Nico [nt]

Of course, with too much RED it can overpower us, and become glaring on our wrist.

:))) [nt]

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-10:52

Agree

Don't forget the red Daytona on a white dial SS model!

 
 By: Spangles - Dr. Tabby : September 10th, 2019-11:46
Too perfect. VC's SS CdV has a small red track which looks very well done (at least in pictures, hope to see it in the real).

I like the meteorite dial with red hands!

 
 By: cazalea : September 10th, 2019-11:54
...  

That's very nice, you have a good eye. [nt]

 
 By: Spangles - Dr. Tabby : September 10th, 2019-18:35

That's a nice look! [nt]

 
 By: Spangles - Dr. Tabby : September 10th, 2019-18:35

When you want to get attention, is there . . .

 
 By: Dr No : September 10th, 2019-11:59
. . . any other color? No, I thought not. Same goes for watch design. ;-) ...  

Yeeees! [nt]

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-13:39

A couple of mine

 
 By: ChristianDK : September 10th, 2019-13:28
PP 5960 A JLC Master Moon ...  

It will only get worse ;-) [nt]

 
 By: ChristianDK : September 10th, 2019-14:19

What? :))) [nt]

 
 By: amanico : September 10th, 2019-14:21

;-) ;-) :-))) [nt]

 
 By: ChristianDK : September 10th, 2019-14:23

Haha - you’re right;-) [nt]

Yup a definite star :) [nt]

Psychologically, red as a colour grabs our attention as a warning or signal

 
 By: skyeriding : September 10th, 2019-21:15
Perhaps due to its use in nature, as red usually symbolises danger (e.g. blood, venomous animals, etc.). Thus it stands out as a strong accent colour, especially contrasted with a plain-coloured dial. Regards, skyeriding

Red it is...

 
 By: Tim Jackson : September 11th, 2019-05:21
In addition to my aforementioned Seiko Padi, the 3 pieces in my collection with red accents on the dials. Cheers, Tim ...  

Nice UN!

 
 By: donizetti : September 11th, 2019-05:25
Sometimes the red is very subtle Best Andreas ...  

Yes, yes, yes. [nt]

 
 By: amanico : September 11th, 2019-09:17

You, Sir

 
 By: Langepedia : September 17th, 2019-02:06
Have an absolute legend there. One of my all time favorites.

It must not be blue with a red accent...

 
 By: JLCman : September 12th, 2019-01:30
I love the little red details of my IWC Spitfire chrono. It adds this very special touch to an already marvelous classical design. ...  

Yes I seem to have a lot of red highlight examples.

 
 By: InDebtButOnTime : September 12th, 2019-16:46
Here's a few where it works well... from subtle to ... uh, less so! ...  

How about this one?

 
 By: Horologically_minded : September 12th, 2019-23:23
Incidentally, it was my first step into this crazy hobby of ours! ...  

And the jewel of my little collection...
