Do folks really like “Tiffany blue” or is it merely a case of liking what it’s associated with… ahem… the crown?

Sorry, my mistake. Read the OP wrong.

Mine is more than 10 years old...

To be fair, Rolex did it well and others saw what a hit it’s been and that’s started the hype. It’s not really Tiffany & Co but close.

I liked the stainless steel one so much I bought black too...

Tiffany Blue has been in existence for a very long time. And it is the symbol of very high quality jewelry. Women dream (at least that's what my wife tells me) of getting their engagement ring in 'the little blue box.' Tiffany has created watch lines with several high-end brands. I know of Omega, AP, and Patek in addition to the Rolex models.

56 years and I've never heard of Tiffany Blue. But if above photos are any representation, I do find it pleasing. Especially Travis Morgan's Borealis.

 

[Goaterade]

They could name it “hobo balls blue” and I’d still buy it. It’s a very nice color.

 

[SigDigit]

I prefer Blue Waffle!

If you think the Tiffany Rolexes are expensive, don't even look at the Pateks. I won't even mention the $2000 set of Tiffany Blue billiard balls...

This does not have to do with your other thread where your wife thinks a small seconds register looks “feminine” to her, does it? If so, maybe a Skagen Aaren Kulor Light Blue Silicone watch might do the trick.

Those are some mesmerizing dials!

 

[OogieBoogie]

Sorry, but Tiffany blue dials remind me of the boxes that Tiffany jewellery and ceramics come in. Rolex doesn't even warrant an afterthought, especially when other brands have used it. If I see a watch in a similar colour I usually like it. Also, some come across as more Wedgewood than Tiffany.

Generally I like the colour, but maybe a bit too in your face 🤔

I prefer the deeper blue dials.

Yeah deeper blue for me too. This looks like they ran out of blue pigment, halfway through the process.

They are pretty though.

I mean, it's Turquoise. Growing up in the southwest, I've always liked the appeal of some of the indigenous jewelry that used Turquoise.

So why not a watch dial?

The association with Tiffany the Jewler, doesn't bother me in as much as it's just impossible to obtain it seems.

 

[Ticktocker]

Tiffany Blue, Aquamarine and Turquoise Blue is a more romantic and luxurious way of marketing Baby Blue. Just like Navy Blue is a more masculine way of marketing Midnight Blue and Pink has become a more masculine"Salmon".

 

[NeverQuiteSure]

I liked both of these dials and assembled both of these watches before I was aware that Rolex had come out with a dial that resembles the second one.
