Sapphire Blue vs Royal Blue

So, between switching jobs and moving into a new home comes the obligatory purge of the scrub hoard. I recently was hired on by HHC who requires royal blue. I have found my favorite scrubs thus far are Medline Angelstat. I had to borrow a pair from L&D when soiling my own and fell in love with them. Thankfully, they come in abundance in Ceil Blue, my previous color - but I fail to see the difference between Royal Blue and Sapphire for all intents and purposes.

Sapphire vs Royal Blue 'officially' (also a graphic designer on the side, which makes this so annoying) is Royal Blue is a deeper, more subtle color - almost Navy. Sapphire, however, is the 'royal blue' I seem to be thinking of and seeing on employees and as the example with scrubs on the interwebs. I do realize, also, that if the calibration on my screen isn't 100% correct, I'll end up with something crazy in the mail (learned this the hard way).

I've checked from my phone, fiance's phone, both our computers and sapphire looks equivalent to royal blue, just named different for Medline's sake.

Has anyone ever bought a pair of Medline's Sapphire scrubs and can tell me for a fact how true to royal blue they are or aren't?
