Legendary brand collaboration that conquered the watch industry – Patek Philippe and Tiffany

Introduced in 2021, the now iconic model – Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 Tiffany from its first announcement left no watch lover or collector indifferent. Not only did it represent a collaboration with the prestigious jewelry brand Tiffany & Co., this watch from the Nautilus collection is also the last produced 5711 model. In a limited series of only 170 pieces, it instantly became a watch every collector wants to own. With a waiting list of up to eight years for the model with the classic dark blue dial, it was clear to everyone that getting the Tiffany blue dial model would be almost impossible. The watch was sold in Tiffany & Co. stores exclusively to their most important customers, and at the first auction open to the public, the watch sold for an incredible $6,503,000, which is 120 times its retail price of approximately $55,000. But Patek Philippe is not the first brand to introduce a watch with a light blue, or turquoise dial.

 

Pioneer in the trend of watches with turquoise dials – Rolex Oyster Perpetual

Rolex, with its entry-level collection - Oyster Perpetual, has delighted fans of simple luxury watches from its first introduction in 1931 to today. The collection's name comes from the word Oyster, referring to the waterproof case up to 100m, and Perpetual represents Rolex's name for the automatic movement. These two revolutionary features are still found in almost all Rolex collections today. From Rolex's simplest collection, in 2020 a model was introduced that has marked the watch industry in recent years – Oyster Perpetual with a turquoise blue dial. The watch with the turquoise dial overnight became one of the most sought-after models, which meant only one thing – other brands had to create more accessible versions of the iconic dial color.
