Catalogue Essay
In 2020, Rolex unveiled new interpretations of its iconic Oyster Perpetual, featuring dials in a series of vibrant colors. Evoking the playful ‘Stella’ dials of Rolex’s past, the new models were available with lacquered dials in yellow, blue, green, coral, or baby pink. Much to the delight of aficionados with a predilection for vintage timepieces, the new Oyster Perpetual references were an immediate success, garnering substantial waiting lists at authorized Rolex retailers.

The present Oyster Perpetual 41 ref. 124300 features what is arguably the most coveted and desirable hue in the palette – “Turquoise” blue. The 41mm Oyster steel case and Oyster bracelet provide robust yet comfortable proportions, while the turquoise blue lacquer dial adds a spirited accent. Inside beats the self-winding cal. 3230. This in-house movement not only drives the central hour, minute and seconds hands with high precision, but also delivers an impressive 70-hour power reserve.

Discontinued in by Rolex in 2022, the “Turquoise Blue” is one of the most popular and sought after Oyster Perpetual wristwatches. The present example is fresh to the market from the original owner and in excellent condition. The watch is accompanied by its warranty and presentation box, and is a versatile watch that can be enjoyed on any occasion.

Rolex

Swiss | 1905
Founded in 1905 England by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis as Wilsdorf & Davis, it soon became known as the Rolex Watch Company in 1915, moving its headquarters to Geneva in 1919. Like no other company, the success of the wristwatch can be attributed to many of Rolex's innovations that made them one of the most respected and well-known of all luxury brands. These innovations include their famous "Oyster" case — the world's first water resistant and dustproof watch case, invented in 1926 — and their "Perpetual" — the first reliable self-winding movement for wristwatches launched in 1933. They would form the foundation for Rolex's Datejust and Day-Date, respectively introduced in 1945 and 1956, but also importantly for their sports watches, such as the Explorer, Submariner and GMT-Master launched in the mid-1950s.One of its most famous models is the Cosmograph Daytona. Launched in 1963, these chronographs are without any doubt amongst the most iconic and coveted of all collectible wristwatches. Other key collectible models include their most complicated vintage watches, including references 8171 and 6062 with triple calendar and moon phase, "Jean Claude Killy" triple date chronograph models and the Submariner, including early "big-crown" models and military-issued variants.
