Cerulean rules - Blue watches
1 minute read
There’s no getting away from it: blue is simply everywhere. On dials and straps, in the shimmering depths of sapphires… A brief dive into the world of the ‘it’ colour with de Grisogono, Glashütte and Harry Winston.

Blue shows no sign of fading away, as the colour of kings continues to shine on fashion runways and in ladies’ wardrobes as well as in jewellery and watches.

 

de GRISOGONO - Tondo by Night blue
A watch that is not short on character and visibly destined to sparkle by day and glow by night. This Tondo model is distinguished by its ability to stand out in the dark thanks to Pearly photoluminescent composite fiberglass – a luminescent material that endows blue with a truly unusual radiance. Innovative in terms of form rather than horological substance, this version rounding out the colourful range of feminine Tondo models is nonetheless resolutely precious – since the bezel is adorned with 48 blue sapphires, while the oscillating weight of the self-winding SF 30-89 movement is daintily set with 60 sapphires.

Glashütte Original - Sixties Panorama Date
Discretion, elegance, retro charm. While timelessness is doubtless the hallmark of this model, the Sixties Panorama Date nonetheless keeps an eye firmly on trends and visibly revels in adopting an extremely appealing midnight blue shade: firstly, on its domed silver-toned dial with a sunburst finish, discreetly punctuated by Arabic numerals, a slim minutes scale and soberly designed hands enhanced with Superluminova; as well as on its midnight blue strap in Louisiana alligator leather. Another interesting detail for enthusiasts of the Saxony-based House is the fact that this is the first model in the Sixties collection to offer admirers a chance to view the self-winding movement through the sapphire case-back.

Harry Winston - Midnight Collection Automatic 42mm
Classic, easy to wear and… blue! With this model, Harry Winston once again proves its ability to develop both complicated watches and others that are apparently simple – the latter being in fact no easy task. The 42 mm-diameter white gold case featuring an extremely restrained style frames a blue dial bearing indications of the hours, minutes and date. An anthem to purity that is also an invitation to savour the delights of blissful immersion.
