From what I remember of the article, it said that the origin of the watch was unknown, but they thought that it might in fact be a custom job from Rolex.

Do not quote me exactly on that because the article was writen in Japanese and my Japanese is not all that great.

Anyway here is the pic.
Yes that is possible like the special dials,made for Arabs etc,but never heard of a blue dial in production retail.A franken watch or a special order,looking at the patina on lume that was a long time ago.
