Are you sure you ordered a Blue no date version? I haven't shipped any of those out yet, other than DEMO Dave's. Perhaps I have your order incorrect in my master file. :scratch:

I have to ask again because it's pretty apparent in the last few photos posted - this one in particular - is the lume on the hands a different color than the lume on the indices?

You didn’t see the post immediately above yours?

To clarify, I was kidding.

But, I did order a blue no date. Image

Yes, ever so slight but enough to contrast the markets a bit.

I have actually never noticed it in person. I've spent a lot of time photographing the Mid and wearing it this past weekend and did not notice a difference in hand / dial lume color. I think the photos enhance the effect due to the lume glowing in the shadow of the depth of the dial in some pics.

Another couple pics of the Blue Mid. One of the nicest blue hues I've seen with a sunray brushed finish. IMO it works really well with the SS bezel and gray NATO strap. I really like the gray outline of the hour markers and hands too.

I had not noticed on mine either to be honest.

Nothing better than waking up on a Sunday morning to finding out my first International shipment had landed and I have a happy customer!

Hi Todd,
Received my blue dial watch yesterday.

It is fantastic.
Don’t know what you have done but this is by far one of the best dials I have come across!
Execution of the case, bezel, lume, all excellent.

Well done!

Keep me posted on all your new creations.

I went four damn years without purchasing a stupid watch. I ordered this Karlskrona and now the fever is burning... I've already decided on the credit card and the next watch. A Colt 41..
