More blue dial watches
Mrs Cazalea and I stopped by our local watch shop today, just to do a bit of looking before Christmas.
Teri showed us a pair of Breitlings (totalling 3 blue dials) that were very shiny and very glittering and soon very covered with our fingerprints.
I know BLUE is a favorite color of Purists (I have 5-6 myself) and so I began a quest in the cases for blue-dialled watches.
Knowing my love for the unusual, our sales lady brought out this Gerald Genta aka Gerald Charles watch.
Solid, heavy and a jump hour (or turning hour) movement on a mother of pearl disc and blue dial center, on a blue strap.
Sensing we were on a roll, I asked to see the very nice Aqua Terra mid-size with blue dial. I like this one on my wife's wrist. Heck, I liked it on mine.
Then I spotted a Tutima Yacht Timer Chrono sporting a blue dial, Sonata-style hands, and tri-color decor.

And it's housing a Lemania 5100 movement too - the yellow hand is the chrono minutes counter.
Although a bit past its sell-by date; having spent a long time in the case, a good deal could be had on this watch.
Of course the matching pair of blue Hublot dials caught our eyes too. We chose the diver rather than the Classic to photograph.

There were blue watches everywhere on the counter; every one a different shade. None matched the PuristSPro blue though.
which brings us to the Breitling for Bentley "work-out arm weight" chrono. I'd never seen one before - this was VERY NICE. Not my style, but very nice indeed.
I started looking at a heart-shaped, blue-dialed ladies watch when I was (a) thrown out by the sales lady, and (b) yanked out by my wife.
Apparently they both had better things to do than feed me blue-faced watches all afternoon.
What can I say?
