A vivid blue ring and camouflage-pattern strap give the openworked Excalibur a cool, wearable color frame.
RDDBEX0940 makes sense when a buyer wants color without giving up everyday coordination. Blue works naturally with the clothes many collectors already wear, and the warm case prevents the watch from becoming monochrome. The green RDDBEX0939 is more unusual and graphic; the red RDDBEX0938 has the strongest visual heat. This blue configuration belongs on the shortlist when the openworked dial should remain dramatic but the strap still needs to move easily between denim, navy tailoring and black casual wear.
For a buyer who wants a strong colorway that still works naturally with navy, denim, black and grey.
Roger Dubuis RDDBEX0940 uses a vivid blue chapter ring and camouflage-pattern rubber strap to frame its black openworked dial. The rose-gold-tone 42mm case supplies warm contrast, while the hands and lower rotating display stay visible across the bridge network. Among the red, green and blue siblings, this is the easiest color-led choice to wear with navy, denim, grey or black. It still has unmistakable Excalibur presence, but the cool palette is simpler to integrate into a modern rotation. QC should cover blue color consistency, dial printing, hand clearance, case profile, strap and clasp.

Blue frames the mechanics without crowding them
RDDBEX0940 places a vivid blue chapter ring around a black openworked dial, then repeats blue through the camouflage-pattern rubber strap. The rose-gold-tone case brings warmth between those elements. From the front, the blue ring defines the perimeter and the warm hands cross a network of dark bridges. The lower rotating display gives the dial a clear point of motion near the bottom.
The color arrangement helps the complicated dial stay readable as a design. Blue marks the outer track, warm metal identifies the hands and case, and black carries the bridge architecture. The notched bezel reinforces the angular Excalibur shape without adding another color. This layered contrast is the main reason to select the reference.
The most wardrobe-friendly color sibling
The red RDDBEX0938 delivers the warmest and most energetic impression. Green RDDBEX0939 feels more individual and graphic. Blue is the easiest of the three to coordinate with navy, denim, charcoal and black, which gives RDDBEX0940 a useful role as the color-led watch that can still appear often in a rotation.
The strap keeps the look casual and contemporary. Its blue, grey and black blocks create more texture than a plain rubber strap, yet the pattern stays within a cool palette. On the wrist, the warm case remains visible between the strap and dial, so the watch does not read as a simple blue sports model. It retains the theatrical contrast expected from an Excalibur.
Configuration and daily interaction
The blue RDDBEX0940 brings together a 42mm case, manual-winding RD509SQ configuration, sapphire crystal, patterned rubber strap and a rose-gold-tone treatment over steel. The fitted strap and broad lugs give the case a stable, integrated outline.
Manual winding makes the watch a more deliberate object in a collection. The open dial is there to be viewed, and the case is designed to be noticed. Buyers who want a quiet office watch may prefer a closed dial or neutral strap. RDDBEX0940 is better for someone who wants the mechanical architecture visible and expects blue to be part of the purchase.
QC from front view to clasp
The primary image should show a consistent blue ring, clean printing and enough contrast for the hands to remain distinct over the bridges. Angled views should keep the lower display, exposed wheels and bezel teeth sharp. The crown-side photograph is useful for case thickness, crown alignment and the fitted strap transition.
The open caseback should be centered in the rear view, with the black strap underside and case screws visible. The clasp image should show the blue pattern, folding hardware and strap condition. A wrist image then confirms how much of the warm case and blue strap remain visible in normal wear, completing a QC set tailored to this exact colorway.
Questions to settle before ordering
Why is RDDBEX0940 easier to wear than the red or green versions?
Blue pairs naturally with navy, denim, grey and black, while the rose-gold-tone case keeps enough warmth for smart-casual clothing.
What separates this from a plain blue sports watch?
The black openworked bridge network, lower rotating display, notched bezel and warm case create a much more theatrical dial and case structure.
Which image best shows the case profile?
The crown-side view shows the 42mm case thickness, bezel teeth, crown alignment and the fitted transition into the patterned strap.
What should be checked on the clasp image?
Look for clean folding action, even warm-tone finish, undamaged strap holes and a consistent blue pattern across the exterior.
