The dial everyone calls Tiffany, which is not what Rolex calls it.
Rolex introduced the turquoise-dial Daytona in 2023 alongside the rest of the new generation. The trade immediately started calling it the Tiffany dial, after the earlier turquoise Oyster Perpetual and a colour association Rolex has never used itself. The catalogue name is simply the turquoise dial.
It is yellow gold on the Oysterflex strap with a black Cerachrom bezel, on calibre 4131. The combination is deliberately loud in a way the rest of the Daytona line is not, and that is reflected in how it moves: it was effectively unobtainable at retail from the day it was announced.
This is a watch found rather than ordered. Tell us how firm you are on it — whether only the turquoise will do, or whether you would look at the other gold dials — because that changes both the timing and what we can realistically put in front of you.

Sourced to your brief, itemised before you decide
Nothing on this page is stock. This is among the hardest current Daytonas to put in front of a client, and we will not pretend otherwise.
The brief
Whether only the turquoise dial will do, or whether the other yellow gold dials are open to you. Say if an unworn, full-set example is the requirement.

Condition of the case, the bezel and the Oysterflex strap are set out separately, along with service history and any verification arrangements you want made.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the Tiffany Daytona?
It is the watch the trade calls that. Rolex calls the colour turquoise and has no association with Tiffany; the nickname comes from the shade and from an earlier turquoise Oyster Perpetual.
Can it be had at retail?
In practice, no. It has been allocated rather than sold from the case since launch, which is why we source it through the network instead of a list.
Does it come on a bracelet?
The turquoise dial was released on the Oysterflex. If you want a gold Daytona on a gold bracelet we can look at the other dials in the same metal.
How long does it take to source one?
It depends on the configuration and how specific the brief is. We tell you what is realistic at the start rather than quote a number we cannot keep.
Can I pay in crypto?
Yes. Bank transfer in any major currency, or crypto; Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum, USDT and other major coins and stablecoins are accepted. The coin, network and amount are confirmed with you before any transfer.
