Patek Philippe Twenty-4 Automatic - blue or grey dial?

[LovingDiamonds]

Hello my lovelies,

I am a fine watch lover and have quite a few pieces in my collection:

Chopard white gold La Strada with diamonds
Patek Philippe Twenty 4 Quarz silver with diamonds (rectangular case)
Rolex Datejust Oyster Perpetual 36 mm silver diamond dial
Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 37 mm blue with diamonds

Next on my wishlist is the Patek Philippe Twenty-4 automatic (round case). I placed my wish with my SA only 3 months ago and yesterday I got the call that „my“ watch arrived…

Now my problem is that I am not sure, if I made the right choice with dial color…I always thought I wanted the blue dial, since I adore dark blue dials on watches, like my AP for example - but this is a very very deep petrol like blue that appears almost black most of the time. Im just thinking that the blue in the Twenty-4 is maybe a bit to bright and not that neutral and probably the grey dial would be a better choice?

What would you like better - grey or blue? Maybe someone even owns this watch and can share his/her experience. Every input is much appreciated!

Thank you

PS: Please note that the pictures of the two watches were taken in different stores - so its a different light.

I prefer the midnight blue as it just looks lovely on your hand especially in the last image..

Agree. The gray isn't bad, it just looks a little flat, has less dimension to it compared to the gradient one sees in the blue.

I think the blue is amazing!

oh it's such a touch decision.

For me it would be an easy decision; the blue.

Blue all the way.

Both watches are absolutely gorgeous, but I prefer the grey.

I think the grey looks a little bit more feminine and also more subtle.

Best wishes with your decision.

Wow so many clear votes for the blue! I’m surprised and also even more confused about what to choose now than before Thanks everyone!
I’m with Miss Happy - leaning towards the grey because it is more subtle and feminine but also love the blue…hm…

I agree with this.

I’ve tried both. Blue grabbed me more.

I think I prefer the grey. The colour looks harmonious with the band and the diamonds and agree with the others, more feminine. Although the blue is striking, I feel that the grey would coordinate better with all clothing styles. It seems classic and timeless.

My vote is for the grey, it is stunning on you! I also see some warmth in that grey, almost leaning taupe, which I love.
