126000 Tiffany blue: Is EWF dial with Clean for the rest the best option?

Dear community,

I've been reading a lot on the 126000 in the recent days and although there's a ton of documentation on the DJ or the Daytona, it's slightly less the case about the 126000 Oyster Perpetual. There's a good thread on the Balloon version but I'm into the Tiffany blue and I couldn't find anything.

After carefully reviewing the different options, it seems to me that the Clean Dial is way too fluo and the EWF is closer to the right shade. I haven't analyzed the print/font though.

What do you gents and ladies make of it?

In order: GEN, EWF, Clean

I grabbed EWF for my wife in the 36 and she couldn't be happier with it. Dial color looks great indoors and in direct sun. I'm sure the CF hybrid would be objectively better under strict scrutiny but the ROI might be lacking. Your call.

The clean dial is pretty much perfect, color-wise. One of the dealers did a side by side comparison with the gen a clean dial.

Well ok all websites it looks way too fluo. The saturation is extremely high and it does look more blue than turquoise. That’s why the comparison you posted surprises me a lot. But thanks for it, that’s interesting to see.

Thanks for your feedback. I really find the EWF dial to have the closest hue.

I hear they updated the VSF and Clean dials, does anyone have more photos with the V2 Turquoise / Tiffany dials?

I recently bought an EWF 41mm tiff purchased M2M, the dial is pretty damn good, it really pops in bright light. Also the hands are very well cut and polished, they really shine very bright when light hits them. I am too new to this whole game to render an opinion on the case shape etc. The only thing I might do is look at movement as accuracy is not in the acceptable range for me. For the price there is nothing to complain about.

To render any real conclusion you will need to make sure these images share the same colour space and are white balance corrected.

I’ve also heard of a “custom dial” option for the Tiffany blue - has anyone heard of where to find these?

I've been doing research in OP 36. For the Tiffany, VSF is superior to Clean. No need for me to point out which is which.



However I think other than this I would go with Clean for every other model especially the sunburst silver. VSF and CF are very close in this space.
