Seems very topical with the Tudor bb58 blue bezel being released
I’’ve become a bit blue obsessed recently. Here are my two dive watches with gorgeous blue bezels.
I had the stainless steel Omega 300m a few years ago, but this titanium version is, in my opinion, well worth the extra few bob. It’s obviously lighter than the steel version, and the blue adds extra funk
As I’ve said countless times before, the 42mm Panerai submersible 1950 case is maybe my favourite ever, and the gray, textured dial is amazing.
Bring on the holidays so I can go for a splash in the sea!

Hmm, Omega, Panerai, Blancpain and...
Hamilton.
I do like that Panerai, and the Blancpain.
Love me a blue bezel - and that Panerai in the OP is a real eye catcher!
My favourite is my Certina DS Action -
Straton Legera is a beautiful thing, too -
Scurfa knock it out of the park, as well -
Here's another stunning blue bezel - sadly not my picture though...
And Tudor...
The only blue bezel in my collection
And one I hope to add...

One like this is due in later this week thanks to one of our well known movers and shakers.

Sadly now gone but this is an amazing blue bezel. Pops in the sunshine.

Blue is without doubt my favourite colour, watches especially. So much so Im having my first ever blue watch serviced to spruce it up, a 2005 Omega Seamaster. The only blue watch that didn’t quite bond with me was the 5711 I had, which I get is strange as it’s probably the most sort after watch on the planet. Just didn’t do it for me.
My favourite watch, so much versatility with the 3 strap options:
I love blue so much so I’ve one of these boys arriving soon :-)
As a blue watch with gold, this has to be up there - quite stunning!
Finally the blue watch to beat all blue watches would be a blue dial, 42mm steel Daytona. Wishful thinking eh!
I do like a blue bezel, however only have the one just now:

Actually up for sale just now but all this talk if blue bezels has me rethinking it.
I have a thing for blue bezel diver-style watches that started with a Timex diver that I had as a kid in the early '70s. Just spent 10 minutes googling images to see if I could find one, and I'm pretty sure it was one of these:
I well remember using the plastic bezel to display remaining time in exams and tests at school. I wore it all the time, not sure I actually took it off in bed and I believe that watch and its tight bracelet are the reason my left wrist is slimmer than the right one. It happily survived going in a swimming pool, and the Mediterranean on holidays to Spain, many times.
A couple of affordable options.
This one blue enough? ;)
Faded, but blue nonetheless.

I was almost about to say that blue bezels really don't do it for me, then I remembered my blue Tuna and the ChR wARD and various Turtles I had. Actually, I still sort of stand by that, the Tuna is dark enough that it isn't BLUE and there's a reason I sold the others.
VC is amazing @devonian
Something titanium from the 1990s incoming,

Always been a blue man though my collection has oriented to black. Currently my little seamaster is my only all blue bezel.
I think Omega nailed the colour on that. I have an incoming Seiko tuna with 2 tone blue bezel that I'm looking forward to.

I'll play as no one's posted one of these yet - newly arrived today.
It's a Phoibos Proteus.

I'm very partial to blue dials, but I think the only watch I have with a blue bezel is my Longines Hydroconquest
I do have a Yobokies blue 'Fifty Fathoms' mod bezel to fit (with other parts) to a SNZH Seiko at some point, but it's been sitting unfitted for a couple of years now!

PS ETA - Looks lovely, I think
Breitling Cosmonaute 809 - What's not to like?
Who can forget the 1675 Blueberry

If the BB58 blue is the poor man’s Smurf, let’s hear it for the daddy.
I do like grey Ti cases with blue bezels...
Since I can’t afford Ken’s FF, this will have to do!

2 Blue & a 3rd half blue half grey.
One of the best blue tones on a watch bezel imho:
Does this count? Turning blue! :)
I know they get plenty of flak, but i really do like the mixture of blues in my Squale Vintage Master.

Blue bezel has to be...

Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
