26 Best Turquoise Watches from Affordable to Luxury

One of the ways that many enthusiasts get to flex the lighter side of their collections, is by adding a little pop of color the otherwise fairly brooding nature of tool watches. With the release of the Patek Philippe Nautilus Tiffany Blue, the industry was lit ablaze with every kind of turquoise dial you can imagine.

The incredible success of the Nautilus, and the ultra-limited nature of the watch left a void that just about everyone jumped in to fill. So we thought today we’d separate the wheat from the chaff and highlight some of the other cool (and much more attainable) turquoise dials on the market. We’ve compiled a list of 26 turquoise dials that we’ve found to be our favorites - some more affordable and available than others. So without further ado, let’s get into the best turquoise dial watches

Patek Philippe Nautilus “Tiffany”

The grandmaster of all Turquoise dials is the Patek Philippe Nautilus “Tiffany” (Ref. 5711/1A-018). This watch has created quite a controversy around itself - Mostly due to it’s extremely limited availability, it’s aftermarket valuations, and who’s wrists it’s on. Right out of the gate, the first sale of the Tiffany Nautlus was $6,500,000 - granted the proceeds went to charity, the last recorded sale of the watch was still north of $3,200,000 USD. What’s even crazier is the retail price for the watch is only $52,635.

But due to the fact that only 170 will be made (to mark the 170th Anniversary of the brand), a very select few super-celebrities have actually seen the watch on their wrist. Tiffany stamped Nautiluses have always been a rarity, and increased secondary market value, but also adding an exclusive dial color just made the industry go crazy. The Nautilus Tiffany spent weeks making the rounds, with a seemingly endless amount of stories about it. For more information on the Nautilus Tiffany, you can read our release here.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41 Ref. 124300

While the Rolex Oyster Perpetual 124300 has always performed well (it is a steel sport Rolex after all), when the Tiffany Nautilus was released it kicked off a craze in the Turquoise dials. The Oyster Perpetual has been a staple in the Rolex catalog for a long time. It’s arguably one of its more classic steel watches outside of maybe the Submariner, which is a completely different category of watch. When the new versions of “The OP” launched, it came in a variety of colors and sizes. But one model was the clear frontrunner, and that was the Turquoise dial.

The watch went on to sell for many multiples over its modest $6,100 USD. In fact, at one point, it was trading and selling for well over $60,000 USD on the grey market. While the price has leveled out more now, it’s still one of the most sought-after watches in 41mm, selling for $32,000 USD right now.

Chopard Alpine Eagle Maritime

The Chopard Alpine Eagle was one of the fan favorites when it was relaunched in 2019. The traditionally golf-centered watch has come in a number of configurations and colors, but one of our favorites is their Maritime blue dial. The turquoise color is a natural progression with the current demand. It keeps the Alpine Eagle’s core DNA, but there’s something special about the deeply etched sunburst dial with the Turquoise color. It’s a rare color to see in a sport watch, but we love it. Price for the Chopard Alpine Eagle Maritime is $15,900 USD and is a boutique edition for Monaco and Athens.

Hublot Big Bang Unico Summer

One of Hublot’s more bold use of color has been the Big Bang Unico Summer - An out of left field Turquoise colored watch that packs a lot of features into its… singular use of color. Typically this color would merit a ceramic case and with the Unico Summer, that isn’t the case. Instead, Hublot has opted to color a Titanium case in the lagoon blue color. In fact, everything from the strap, to the case, to the crown, to the bezel utilizes the color. The only pop of “Color” is behind the skeletonized dial to the movement plate. The grey is dusted with a few of the movement gems, but overall, the watch is uniquely… well. Turquoise. Price for the Hublot Big Bang Unico Summer is $20,900 USD and limited to 200 pieces.

Doxa Sub 200 Aquamarine

One of the countri’s most tried and true “heritage” dive watches is the Doxa Sub 200. The watch was recently revamped and unveiled in 2019 with a smattering of color options. Of course, the Turquoise is among them, and became one of the better sellers. The vintage-esque aesthetics are complimented by some modern guts with a decorated Doxa movement and a 7-link stainless steel rice bead bracelet. Price for the Doxa Sub 200 Aquamarine is $990 USD.

Seiko Prospex US Special Edition Ocean

Seiko has always had many collaborations with a number of conservation efforts over the years. One of the more unique and “Out There” is the Seiko Prospex US Special Edition. Designed to promote ocean exploration and conservation. The model was released in 3 colorways, but our favorite is the Turquoise dial. The dial itself is treated to give it an almost bubbly underwater texture providing plenty of visual interest for a watch in this price point. While the watch is still innately a tool watch, it’s turquoise colorway and textured dial give it a really summery vibe and we love it. Price for the Seiko Prospex US Special Edition Ocean is a modest $565 USD.

Seiko Frozen Margarita SRPE49J1

The Second Seiko on our list is a lesser-known international release called the “Frozen Margarita” (Ref. SRPE49J1). The Ice Blue Presage was first introduced in 2020 and was quickly sold out. It was a surprisingly popular model with it’s lagoon blue dial inspired from a frozen margarita cocktail - A unique influence but, suppose we can see it valid. The watch measures in at the smaller side for the Presage at 38.5mm, but the watch comes on a really cool Milanese bracelet - To our knowledge, a first for the Presage. It’s a clean look that can be dressed up or dressed down, and those are always our favorite watches. You can typically fine the Presage Frozen Margarita for around $999 USD.

Swatch x Omega MoonSwatch Mission to Uranus

While we did rank the Swatch x Omega MoonSwatch Mission to Uranus towards the middle of pack with our overall ranking, we do think it holds it’s own as a baby blue / turquoise watch that’s both clean and unique. Obviously, the big draw to the MoonSwatch is that it’s Omega branded, and definitely much MUCH more attainable financially than the Omega Speedmaster. The watch was a little less popular than some of the rest of the MoonSwatches, but that actually makes it a little more widely available, since the MoonSwatches are still having supply and demand issues. If you can find one, it’ll run you $265 USD at msrp, but they’re selling for a little less than double that on the secondary.

Breitling Superocean Automatic

Breitling recently re-released the Superocean Automatic to mixed reviews. For starters, the bold colors aren’t something that Breitling has historically been known for, and the new Superocean collection has been equipped with a slew of color options, including a fun Turquoise color that moved up to the top of the pile in desirability. The watch takes influence from the Breitling Slow Motion from the 50’s with the blocky handset and indices. Paired with the bolder colorway, it’s a solid offering from Breitling at a reasonable price at $4,900 USD.

Gerald Charles Maestro GC2.0UP

Genta’s final company was founded in 2000, and was the resting place of his final design in the Maestro. The Maestro has gone through a number of tweaks and changes over the years, but the Ultra-Thin GC2.0 has become a staple in the brand’s collection. The Gerald Charles GC2.0 UP was developed in a run of 70 pieces for Ugo Piccini (Hence the “UP”) - a family owned jewlery and watch shop in the heart of Florence Italy. The watch is offering in stainless steel with an ice blue dial developed in conjunction with the Piccini family. Price for the watch was $17,010 USD. You can check out Gerald Charles’ current offerings at their website.

Oris Diver Cotton Candy

When Oris first released the Cotton Candy versions of their diver, it was to mixed reviews. On the one hand, the collection was really cool with a turquoise, green, and pink dial. The kicker was that they released it in a bronze case and bracelet. It was an aesthetic that was incredibly unique pairing pastels up with the more brooding and patina ready bronze case. But it simply worked, and while I can see the argument made that they are more feminine in nature, at 38mm, these watches (and especially the Turquoise dial) can really fit into anyone’s collection. Price for the Oris Diver Cotton Candy is $2,750 USD.

Monta Noble

Monta has become quite the staple in microbrand collectors collections. The Monta Noble is an incredibly refined watch with a number of unique color options. One of the more limited releases was the Monta Noble Turquoise. Released in September, the 100-piece limited edition was immediately snatched up. Monta capitalized on the Turquoise dial craze and it produced a truly fun summer watch. Price for the Monta Noble seems to be sitting right around $1,900 USD.

Orient 200M Diver

If you’ve followed Wrist Enthusiast for any amount of time, you know that we’re big fans or Orient watches. It’s really hard to argue with their value proposition and they seem to have something for everyone. Including, a turquoise dive watch with some great specs. The 41.8mm stainless steel case features a whopping 200 meters of water resistance with an automatic japan with hacking seconds. Overall, if you’re in the market for a Turquoise dial, you’d be hard pressed to find one with better specs than the 200M Diver. Price for the watch is only $227 USD.

Astor and Banks Fortitude

The Astor and Banks Fortitude has become a bit of a fan favorite when it comes to steel sport watches with Turquoise dials. In fact, it’s often pictured next to the Rolex Oyster Perpetual turquoise because the case shapes and stainless steel bracelet taper are so similar. On its own, the Fortitude stands well and apart from the crowd. It’s refined, an easy wear, and captures the essence of what makes steel sport watches so desirable. For a Micro Brand to do that so well is quite rare. And you really can’t complain about the price at $650 USD.

Sinn Aquamarine

Low Key flyer (especially in the United States) Sinn also offers a tool-y watch on the brands Aquamarine model. The canvas strap matches well with the 38.5mm stainless steel case - It presents an almost field Watch aesthetic. And the size of the case is actually fairly out-of-the-ordinary case size for the brand. It’s a more modest offering from Sinn that allows the bold colors of the dial (also out of character for the brand) to really stand out. Limited to only 400 pieces, the Sinn Aquamarine comes with a modest price tag of $1,460 USD.

Kurono Tokyo Seiji

Kurono Tokyo is a relative newcomer that utilizes a special lacquer finish that gives the turquoise dial a slick mirror finish. The brand has positioned the Seiji as a Women’s watch, but measuring in at 37mm, it really fits quite well on any modest sized wrist. The watch is playful and fun, and when paired with the white leather strap, the Seiji really could get away with being a winter watch or a summer watch - dressed up or dressed down. Overall, we’ve been a really big fan of Kurono Tokyo, and the fact that they have included a turquoise dial is an added bonus. Price for the Seiji is $1,793 USD.

Grand Seiko Peacock

We know, it’s a little late in the list for a Grand Seiko since they actually offer a number of really cool turquoise dial watches. But our favorite has got to be the US Limited Edition (Ref. SBGK015) in “Clear Blue” - which is really a bright turquoise color. The coveted manual wind Caliber 9S63  is paired with a uniquely textured dial inspired but the Ryūsendō Cave and it’s dazzling blue waters. The Plumaged dial features a circular pattern that extends towards the edge of the case giving a coherent and beautiful design that only Grand Seiko can truly pull off effectively. Obviously, this is super limited at only 300 pieces but looks to still be available for $7,500 USD.

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chronograph “Ice Blue” Ref 26317BC

One of the more notorious and rare Royal Oaks created, the “Ice Blue” brought a wintery vibed addition to the perfectly sized 39mm Royal Oak Chronograph. The cold aesthetic is a welcomed edition, but ultimately unavailable as only 100 pieces were made. The white gold Royal Oak is the ultimate luxury baby blue model that we’ve really seen in the Royal Oak line, and a chronograph to boot. Matching against the royal blue, the “Ice Blue” dial comes in Audemars Piguet’s Tapisserie texture with the contrast of a textured subdial configuration. It’s pretty simply a beautiful timepiece you don’t get to see very often in the industry. Price for the Royal Oak “Ice Blue” is $59,900 USD at retail, but sells for more than double that on the secondary market. It is a great addition for any Gerald Genta-designed watch collector.

Halios Seaforth Series IV “Pastel Blue”

Halios has certainly climbed the enthusiast ladder over the course of it’s short time in the spotlight, but the Seaforth Series IV has really been a core model for the brand. The Seaforth has gone through a number of iterations, but the brand has recently released a pastel line of dial colors, with one of our absolute favorites being the “Pastel Blue”. As a tool watch, the Seaforth is a serious dive watch capable of holding up with any number of other micro brand offerings in the same pricepoint. However we find that the vintage aesthetic with a steeply domed and slightly magnified sapphire crystal elevates the Seaforth IV to one of the leaders of the pack. Prices are a bit volatile since the watch it typically sold out and re-stocks can take some time, but it seems the average tends to shake out around $1,200 USD.

Tissot Seastar PRO 2K PW80 SS BR Aqua

Last but not least, we have the Tissot Seastar Pro 2K “Aqua”. The Swiss brand is known for providing quality Swiss watches for a reasonable price. And their entry into the Turquoise arena is a slam dunk. All things considered, the Seastar Aqua is a toned down dive watch with a more fumé style wave textured dial that is equally beautiful as it is a tool. Measuring in at an oversized 46mm, the watch comes fitted with an adjustable bracelet allowing it to be fitted over a wetsuit and superbly legible underwater with prominent lume. And since it utilizes the Powermatic movement, it features a whopping 80-hours of power reserve - much more generous than just about any other tool watch on this price point. Price for the Seastar Aqua is $920 USD.

U-Boat Darkmoon Aquamarina Limited Edition

U-Boat has most often been known by their larger more military-inspired watches over the years. In fact, they’ve even created a 60mm titanium watch for the Italian Military that we’ve caught Arnold Schwarzenegger wearing fairly regularly. But it seems the brand has turned over a new leaf recently with many offering’s well within the modest size ranges. While the oversized military divers are still offered, one of the more refined releases is the Darkmoon - A unique watch with an oil-filled dial and a large domed sapphire crystal. The 44mm watch has a nice profile, and we love the magnification and clarity effect of the oil against the dial. Paired with a turquoise rubber strap, the U-Boat Darkmoon feels like a watch you can wear to a barbecue, or on a yachting trip. Since the turquoise was extremely limited, it is currently sold out. But depending on size and configuration, the Darkmoon ranges for between $1,240 USD and $1,560 USD. You can check out the rest of U-Boat’s Darkmoon collection at their website.

Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Automatic Limited Edition

Christopher Ward has been killing it lately with the many additions to the C63 Sealander. One of the more recent releases sees the addition of a fume effect turquoise dial. It keeps up with the steel sport watch aesthetic it with copious amounts of lume, and integrated bracelet, with an obvious attention to legibility. It’s a solid watch from a solid brand. Limited to just 125 pieces, the watch comes with a beyond modest price tag of $925 USD.

Glashütte Original Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date

Vintage aesthetics are no stranger to Glashutte, and one of their most popular models happens to be a square shaped steel sport watch called the “Seventies”. It’s unique shape gives it an ample wear with an integrated steel bracelet. The inclusion of a turquoise dial is an added bonus, as the shape and style isn’t unseen in the 70’s and works well with Glashutte’s more brooding German designs. Limited to just 100 pieces, price for this watch tends to hover right around $15,000 USD.

H. Moser & Cie Pioneer Centre Seconds

Moser throws its hat in the ring of capitalizing on the turquoise craze with the Pioneer Centre Seconds in turquoise. Moser has long been known by its more minimalistic approach to dials. No text is seen except the brand’s logo etched into the sapphire right under 12 o’clock with the elaborate Fume dial stealing the show. The box hands and indices make legibility first and foremost with a matching turquoise textile strap. Obviously this was fairly limited, but price on the secondary market seems to be right around $15,000 USD.

Bell & Ross BR-X5

Bell & Ross may be mostly known for their radar style Pilot watches, but entered the turquoise dial race with a unique and summer-y entry to their BR collection with the BR-X5 - a cool steel sport watch that matches the turquoise dial with its BR05 caliber movement. What ensues is a matching turquoise dial with an oversized date wheel in Bell & Ross’ signature 41 mm case shape and matching “ice blue” rubber strap. It’s a perfect summer (or winter) addition to anyone’s collection. When it comes to luxury steel sport watches, it’s hard to complain about the $7,400 USD price tag.

Casio G-Shock CasiOak GMAS2100

We had to end this list with a CasiOak. Obviously using the resin tech and overall rubberized case, Casio has a plethora of color options for its flagship collection. Naturally, a turquoise model was soon to bubble to the top of the brands product offerings. With the GMAS2100, you get every luxury of the CasiOak case in a turquoise treatment. So whether it’s yard work, Mountain climbing, cave diving, or extensive hikes, Casio has provided a perfect turquoise companion for whatever elements the wearer may face. And honestly it’s a no brainer decision at just $139 USD.
