While watching YouTube coverage of Watches & Wonders 2024 it was painfully obvious that most of the "journalistic" web sites are now just extensions of brands marketing departments. When I started becoming interested in watches (around 2017/2018 time frame), there seemed to be much more genuine journalism, but perhaps the shilling was just disguised better than it is today. Between that and brands that seem to have the attitude that we should consider ourselves lucky to be allowed to spend our money on their over priced trinkets, my interest in watches is starting to fade.
I think that's true of most Zelos dials. I have a few watches from Zelos, and the dials look so much nicer in person than they do in photos, even though they look great in the photos as well.
I'm impressed.
Blue is one of my favorite colors for dials. There are so many different shades of blue that you could probably have a very diverse collection with nothing but blue dials, each with their own unique take on the color. Blue dials in my collection include:
Girard Perrgeaux Richeville looks blue in certain lights, but almost black in others.
IWC Pilots Chrono 41
Omega SMP 300 with "electric blue" dial (Ref 2255.80)
Oris Divers 65 with inky blue dial
Oris Aquis Great Barrier Reef III LE
Studio Underd0g Desert Sky
Zelos Horizons GMT with teal dial. I've never been able to capture the true color of this one in a photo. It's the only one of my watches that my wife has ever described as having a gorgeous dial.
