Violet / Purple Dials

I am searching for a watch with violet/purple dial. Just to try that color, I had before the Festina Alegria. Nice color but not a quality piece. So I am searching for another watch. But here are some requirements that made it very hard for me to find one:

First of all, I am collecting elegant sportswatches, the Aqua Terra/Oyster Perpetual style (see pictures of some of my watches). Three handers with no complication or at least a day or day/date complication. Case size goes from 36-39mm and only traditional brands / no micro brands. Watch should be equipped on a stainless steel bracelet and the movement is not that important for me. With this given conditions, what would be the watch you would suggest that has a violet/purple dial?

I would argue that CW is no longer a microbrand.

Thank you for your suggestion, maybe it is time for me to look at these. The oldest brand I have considered was Frederique Constant but CW is definitely another brand worth to be considered by traditional brand enthusiats like me 🙃

Great one, only I am not so sure, if they come with a stainless steel as well. Or at least I have to find one.

I got the Zelos Swordfish Field because I wanted to try a bold color. I think it's brilliant.

Not to take anything away from the CW Twelve, but the Bel Canto is also available in purple...

I have the Radcliffe Le Dome in purple and the DuFrane in Wine. You can also check out Tsao watches. Based in Baltimore MD where purple is the Ravens color.

I’m just actively ignoring what you said about microbrands :). This watch is just too good. I have one myself (as the retailer said), but then in blue.

Grand Seiko (though it is 40mm)- https://www.watchcrunch.com/leatherngold/posts/wruw-2024-04-02-7257c533-muhqecne-371407

Then there is a Rolex Oyster Perpetual Red Grape Dial (sorry, don’t own it)

The purple is really nice!

I'd source a pre-owned Vario Versa and pair it with an aftermarket Forstner Komfit bracelet...

The 40mm PRX is soon releasing in a gradient dial going from vibrant purple to a blue so dark it looks black. Still, it’s a PRX so I wouldn’t count on it to be reliable
