Do it ! , As mentioned in the original post, expensive and the cheaper end of the scale are welcome.
My starting bid was only a couple of hundred.

Blued hands are blued hands. They are all beautiful so post away.
Here's another blue hand to even the playing field a bit. The request didn't say it had to be flame blued hands.

I have to ask, Brian: if this is your all time favorite, why do you no longer own the Robert Lighton Empire?
The title of this thread threw me of at first - are you asking for pics of my hands after I rode my motorbike for 260 km in -6C weather? Talk about blue hands. (Un?)fortunately, there was no camera around when I got of the bike
Okay, more to the point of this thread - I'm with Brian, also a sucker for blued hands, so no surprise that I have quite a few in my collection, from relatively cheap to not so, from old to new.
My most affordable blue hands* are found on my 2011 WUS CMW Moonphase SE
and the oldest ones on my Minerva VD712 Decimal Chronograph
Blue hands come from all over the world; the examples above are from China and Switzerland, but how about blue hands from Joure in Fryslân, The Netherlands
Christiaan van der Klaauw Ariadne
or from Germany:
Stowa FOLE
and from Switzerland (of course):
IWC Portuguese Automatic
Great thread, gorgeous pictures
* used to be on my Parnis Power Reserve, but that watch now lives on the wrist of my brother-in-law; there is more to that story

Intentional

Talk about blue hands.
I left it open to a bit of interpretation, so those too
