* Glace Verte 116400GV — green-tinted sapphire crystal, only colored crystal Rolex has ever produced. Through-thickness tint via kiln process Rolex describes as "one of the most difficult aesthetic operations" the manufacture has attempted; deliberately not patented because the process is so difficult to reverse-engineer.

* Z-Blue 116400GV-0002 — electric blue sunburst lacquer pigmented with zirconium, reads aqua/turquoise through the green crystal. March 2014 launch replaces the discontinued non-GV black sub-reference.
