crawltochina's photo of the sea blue leather case doesn't seems to be what was like in the website.
phobos512's photo is closer to what i would expect for a sea blue.

True. My saddle brown for my iPhone 6s Plus looks gorgeous after a year of use. I fear the sea blue with take a dark dingy turn like the red and midnight blue. If I am wrong and it looks good, I will definitely purchase.
One guy is using HDR on his shots to make it look brighter than it is. Notice how much the red pops too.

Yeah I saw a saddle brown on an iPhone 7 going out the door while I was at the Apple Store. Looked good. But I still got the sea blue. Having second thoughts though. I've got a leather case on my 6 Plus and it's done well, but last week on Kali River Rapids my phone case and I got drenched. It didn't fare too well, and now that the iPhone can actually get wet, the leather case will be the weak link.
I just received my midnight blue and it looks almost black. Definitely not as navy blue as the apple store projects. Im considering going to the sea blue but its another 1-2 week wait. :/
I got mine in today and I haven't put it on the phone yet but I'm really digging the color. Its like a carolina blue, not too light but not too dark either. Would look badass on either the matte black or silver phones.
Here's how it looks on my matte black. Sorry for the iPad mini quality.
Edit: that's a reflection on the edge in the 2nd shot. It looks weird but the case fits perfectly.

.Sea Blue is gorgeous!
I love mine. All of the "look at my iPhone 7 Plus" attention without going naked =P. The blue definitely looks "new", and it's really more of a "dark baby blue" than expected. I don't believe I can think of anything comparable really. Really cool color.
If only Apple had marketed Matte as "Stealth Deep Black" and made up a story about how it absorbs light (and how hard it is to manufacture, etc...) IT would have been the trendy color. At least people will know what a cool person I am now thanks to my case!

Then after enjoying its beauty for a few minutes I quickly put in the Sea Blue case.
I really like the look and fit of the case.
I always think the Sea Blue case would work well with a white and silver iPhone. Anyone has a picture of sea blue case on silver phone?
After seeing all these pics I've decided to order my first leather case (in sea blue of course) to change up my product red silicone case from time to time.
Has anyone tried spraying All-protector on their leather case to prevent some of the dirt build up? I'm wondering how it will work if I do it on the case.
This is the stuff i'm talking about, but their are other brands as well obviously.

I use Renaissance wax on all of my leather cases. It's so good on almost everything, and even a tiny tin of it lasts forever.
It also provides the tiniest bit of tack to the leather, which makes it awesome to hold.
I've gotten more compliments on the Sea Blue in 5 days than any other case in the last 2 years. Gorgeous!

Wondering how this color looks after some wear-and-tear, after it inevitably accumulates dirt/oil and the edges turn black. Have this ready for pick-up to use with a gold 7 Plus. DetroitBORG's Youtube video shows this specific pairing -- it's a really nice & unique color combination.
Having second thoughts however, and thinking about picking up a saddle brown instead. It also fits the gold beautifully and i'm thinking the brown will look more elegant when aged.

I'm using my sea blue exclusively and will take pics in the same location, under the same lighting as time progresses. I'll eventually post the shots once time progresses. It's only been a week about.
