At the beginning of 2020, Rolex brightened up the Oyster Perpetual offerings with the launch of a vibrant array of models featuring a series of brightly coloured lacquer dials as a subtle homage to the iconic “Stella” dials from the past. Launched in three different sizes, 41mm (ref. 123400), 36mm (ref. 126000) and 31mm (ref. 277200), the lacquered dials were made available in the following colours, yellow, green, coral red, tiffany blue and pink (only for ref. 126000). Immediately making an impact on the first day of its launch, the model has since become one of the most sought-after Rolex sports model in recent times.

Featuring arguably the most desirable color amongst the selection in “Tiffany” blue, the present example is the 36mm variant offered by the original owner. Interestingly, this “Tiffany” blue Oyster Perpetual is unlike any other with a characteristic to notice. While the Oyster Perpetual is known to be certified with the chronometer certification indicated at 6 o’clock for excellence, a small detail or “mistake” on the typography on the “U” of Superlative appears slightly shorter than the rest of the text. Likely to be an oversight or known to the community as an “error” dial, this Oyster Perpetual certainly stands out from its peers. With the announcement just this spring of the discontinuation of the short lived "Tiffany" blue 41mm variant, the present Oyster Perpetual 36mm is still in production, but yet speculated for how much longer before its discontinuation. Presented in excellent overall condition example, this is a chance for collectors to acquire an unusual example right now.
