Introduction

Released in 2020 as Rolex revitalized the entire Oyster Perpetual collection, the new OP41 ref. 124300 features the incredible in-house Rolex cal. 3230 movement within its 41mm entirely satin-brushed stainless steel case. Featuring 70 hours of power reserve with COSC certification and Rolex's own "Superlative Chronometer" certification, this new movement has ensured that the latest Oyster Perpetuals remain accurate to within -2/+2 seconds a day and feature the same level of horological engineering as any other flagship offering from the Genevan brand. Aside from its movement, the Oyster Perpetual was also given an aesthetic overhaul in the form of a range of new and immediately recognizable Stella dial reminiscent dial options. Ranging from turquoise blue to yellow to green to coral red and a selection of other colors, these new vibrant dials fuelled a massive shift in public opinion for the Oyster Perpetual, as it went from a relatively obscure offering to an instant hit overnight.

Featuring a rich blue dial that can change from a dark navy to a bright electric blue in different lighting conditions, the ref. 124300's sunburst display is an excellent addition to this understated and robust timepiece.

THE CONSTRUCTION
THE CONSTRUCTION

Named after its automatic winding movement and water-resistant case, the Oyster Perpetual ushered in a new era of watchmaking at Rolex and the wider industry as brands scrambled to create timepieces as rugged as this iconic piece of design. Now, the Oyster Perpetual lies as the foundation for every sports watch Rolex makes, and for good reason.

Condition

The watch is in overall near-mint condition. The stainless steel case and case back show light surface marks from wear, with a more noticeable mark on the polished bezel. The blue dial and hands are like new. The Oyster bracelet is in near-mint condition with light surface marks and no play between the links. The bracelet currently fits a 7 1/2” wrist, and has 12 links, 5 of which are removable. The watch comes complete with boxes, guarantee, booklet, wallet, numbered hang tag, and COSC hang tag.

Our Perspective

The bedrock that every sports offering from Rolex is built upon, the latest edition of Stella dial-inspired Oyster Perpetuals has reignited the flame that collectors have for this iconic timepiece, and rightfully so.
