Audemars Piguet Blue Dial Watches

When Gérald Genta sketched the first Royal Oak in 1971, he finished the render with a deep navy tone he called Bleu Nuit. That single choice sparked a half‑century romance between Audemars Piguet and blue dials—from the crisp “Petite Tapisserie” of early Royal Oaks to today’s smoked‑blue Offshore diver and the glacier‑blue gem‑set Concept. If you’re looking for a watch that feels both classic and current, you’ve just found your colour.

Why Choose a Blue‑Dial AP?

• Iconic Hue – Bleu Nuit, Nuage 50 is exclusive to Audemars Piguet and instantly recognisable.

• Versatility – Navy pairs with a charcoal suit, smoked blue pops against casual denim.

• Resale Resilience – Blue‑dial Royal Oak chronographs historically trade 8–10 % higher than equivalent black or silver models.

• Collector Cred – The original 5402 ST was blue; wearing one nods to the brand’s roots.
