Blue watches, why are they popular now?
Sep 13, 2018,16:59 PM
I cannot help but noticed this blue trend becoming stronger.
If I remember correctly, it all seems to kick off in 2016, when Omega came out with the CK2998 and the Master Moonphase Chrono, then we start seeing blue
Of course I might be wrong because the 2 famous watches: AP 15202ST and PP 5711 has blue, and especially their P version, more blue.
What comes next is the blue ceramic cases, Blancpain, blue dial PP 5930G, Blue SkyDweller, Chopard LUC PC, MING, Seiko Presage, ceramic dials...
Today, Volker's AP ROO has blue (VERY blue) and luca.rev's Eagle has blue....not a day without blue watches.
Why is blue dial or blue watches popular now? Or they has been that way?
The sky's blue, the ocean's blue, and the most common apparel, I think, jeans, is blue.
Therefore, our eyes and mind is very used and adapted to blue.
Black, white are very popular as well but they are more traditional, do not have that various shade or radiant that blue dials can play.
Once a while, you will get Green, Yellow and Orange but these colors are not going mainstream.
How long can this Blue trend last?
Blue is now the next Black, what will be the next Blue or Black?
Even cars in Automotive pages are Blue today
