Looking for input on dial colors

[Todd Fredriksen]

Hello all...
What dial color(s) do you fell would look good in the following design? I was thinking Yellow or perhaps a dark green?

Thank you for your input.

Best,
Todd

You've only got the blue dial on there, doesn't help us choose.

Well examples would help.. blue was last years hype ( personal opinion, like it though)

I am looking for input on other dial colors people feel would look good on the blue dial watch's design.

Ah alright, I always loved the subtle dark blue with sunburst on the Oris Aquis.

Green, always green!

There are a small amount green dialed watches out there. Looks cool!

I am a sucker for blue sunburst, so that one you got there looks pretty much perfect. But since you ask; how about grey sunburst? Looks good on a diver and looks good when matched with a grey suit or wool sweater.

Green dials feel more in sync with bronze/brass cases.

But since the name of the watch is "Midnattssol", I would go with something like this.

Great post and couldn't agree with you more.
I did an anthracite gray dial with the Baltic Shield so didn't want a repeat with this one. I do like the idea of a sunburst green similar to the blue.
Hmmmmmmmmmm............... got me thinking now.

Pearl white?

 

[Unter den Linden]

Green!

You could go green, but I am not sure about how it would look with an SS bezel. Can anyone find a pic of a dive watch with green dial/stainless bezel? My google-fu is not strong enough. Black bezel would work without a doubt though.

Dark green!

I may play with a rendering of a dark green sunburst dial and see how it looks. What about an accent color on the dial... gold?

Pearl white?

+ 1.

I would just love it if you keep it green sunburst/white. But I am very partial to that particular combination, so do not take my word for it. My very first watch was a green sunburst/white numbers deal. This is what I wore as a seven year old kid.

Works really fine on sarb017. Worth a try

I am wondering about a flat green vs. sunburst green? I am leaning towards sunburst similar to these blue. I would consider a no date option as well but not sure if the demand would be there for it.
