Just curious coz I was comparing it the other day with my vintage Lemania stopwatch and the blue hands look different, though of course the Lemania is old and the Nav B is new.

Or are they chemically blued?

I believe it is electroplating.

I believe it is electroplating.
Correct!
When in doubt, go to the source. I asked Jon at Debaufre this question and he confirmed, they are blued via electroplating.

Electroplating is the same as chemical plating right?
