Gen blue dial Steelfish

Recommended Posts

aksingh

The gen blue dial Steelfish has always been tough to photograph and also hard for the makers to get right, so I thought Id put up a few pics of my gen to try to show what the exact colour is and how it changes in different light, for those who are thinking of getting one.

Haha, no chance, the rep blue is way off - the black is the closest.

simply lovely blue fish. The dial looks gun metal at some angles.

The rep blue fish dial isn't as accurate as other colors, the reason I started buying reps was because I can't tell the difference in most cases...especially certain Breitlings. .

Me too - I suspect, side by side, the rep would look too blue.

On its own though I reckon the blue rep is pretty attractive.

The rep blue is too violet, not greyish blue like the gen, altho the colour changes so much depending on the light. The latest Fish looks a bit closer to the gen blue tho.

Ya i got the black background and its silly close to the gen. Only difference is mine has the the square seconds hand which some of the older gen Sosf had to im fine with it.

Cheers guys, got the diver for £80 on ebay. I wasnt sure about it, being quite plain, but it is thick and muscular and works perfectly with the Fish and even better on my black dial B01.
