In Response To: Question on Speedmaster Blue Dials ()

: An associate had a Speedmaster automatic with a
: blue dial that looked great. I have a few
: questions for the experts about the blue
: dial.

The only Speedmaster in production with a blue dial is the Day/Date (it's Automatic) model 3523.80.00 and is $2395 US MSRP.

: 1) Is it only the Speedmaster Automatic that
: had a blue dial?

Yes

: 2) Are there different shades of blue dials?
: The one I saw was a deep blue. The pictures
: I have uncovered on the Internet look
: lighter. I want to get the same shade of
: blue from the one I looked at.

One color blue. It might look different in different lighting and photographic situations

: 3) Do they still make Speedmaster Blue dials? I
: have an authorized dealer looking but they
: are not much help (a chain jewelry store).

Last I heard, they still make it. You need a different Authorized Dealer. Fortunately, I have one of the best. Check Your E-Mail for a referral.

: Thanks in advance.

: Bob
