The Oyster Perpetual Tiffany blue face watch has become one of the world's most recognisable and coveted timepieces. The watch has been around since the early 1900s, but it wasn’t until the 1950s that it became the iconic piece it is today. This pre-owned Rolex blue-dial watch features a classic round face, with a striking blue background and bold white text. The name “Tiffany Blue” is derived from the renowned jewellery store, Tiffany & Co., which has been selling the watch since it was first released. The watch’s iconic blue face was designed to match the colour of the store’s iconic blue box. Its timeless design has also made it a favourite among watch collectors, and its value continues to increase over time.

The Rolex Sky-Dweller blue watch is one of the most sought-after timepieces in the world. It is incredibly popular due to its unique combination of modern style and classic elegance. The blue dial and gold accents make it a timeless piece that will never go out of style. Its limited production and exclusive availability make it sought-after and hard to find.

Its popularity is likely due to its combination of classic design and modern luxury. Appearing on the wrists of a slew of both sports stars and celebrities alike – Roger Federer, LeBron James and DJ Khalid – this stunning timepiece is sure to continue to be a classic.
The Rolex Datejust blue face watch is a classic timepiece from the world-renowned Swiss watchmaker. This iconic pre-owned Rolex blue-dial watch features a unique blue dial with a classic three-hand design. It has an Oyster bracelet with a deployment clasp and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. The watch is powered by the self-winding Calibre 3135 movement and has a power reserve of 48 hours. The sunray finish on the dial creates delicate light reflections, allowing light to be diffused along each engraving, which moves with the positioning of the wearer’s wrist.
With its strong, definitive blue hue and lacquered dial, as opposed to the usual Submariner sunburst dial, it’s easy to see where this watch earned its nickname. Crafted entirely out of 18 karat white gold, this second-hand Rolex blue-face “smurf” is a highly desirable sports watch which came to market in 2008, celebrating Rolex’s 100th anniversary. Waterproof up to 300 meters, equipped with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, a unidirectional rotatable bezel and a stainless steel Oyster bracelet. Depending on the lighting, the used Rolex blue-face Smurf is said to have a ‘wet’ look due to its lacquered blue dial and matching Cerachrom bezel, which remind people of the diving history of the model. The model was discontinued in 2020, with Rolex keeping a close guard on the actual numbers released.
