Waffle Dial 28.5mm – Blue Metallic

A deep sunburst blue dial with guilloché waffle texture, designed in-house by Nomods for Royal Oak-style Seiko mods. The metallic blue finish shifts between navy and bright cobalt depending on the angle and light, with each square of the waffle pattern catching reflections independently to create depth across the entire dial surface. At 28.5 mm diameter, this dial fits the Royal Oak 37mm V2 and Petrichor 37mm cases directly. Compatible with NH35 and NH36 automatic movements. Applied markers with C3 Super-LumiNova provide reliable legibility in low light.

Specifications

Compatibility

Movements: NH35 and NH36. These are standard automatic (non-skeleton) movements with a solid rotor. The dial feet are positioned for the 3 o’clock crown. This is a solid dial — it is not designed for skeleton movements like the NH70, NH71, or NH72.

Cases: The 28.5 mm diameter fits the Royal Oak 37mm V2 and Petrichor 37mm cases directly. This dial does not fit 41 mm cases or the Seikonaut, which require 30.8 mm dials.

Designed by Nomods

This waffle dial is an original Nomods design, not a third-party sourced component. The guilloché waffle texture is precision-stamped into the brass dial blank before the metallic blue sunburst finish is applied, creating a layered visual effect where the color shifts with wrist movement while the geometric grid remains crisp at every angle. Mass-produced mod dials typically use flat printed textures. Our waffle dials have physical depth in each cell of the pattern, which is what gives them the light play that flat printing cannot replicate. The blue metallic is the most versatile color in the waffle range — it pairs naturally with silver, gunmetal, and black PVD cases.
