Custom Shop Rolex?

Has anyone heard of Rolex designing a legitimate custom watch for someone that could afford it? For example, CF Martin and Fender make Eric Clapton model guitars designed originally for him that anyone can buy. Ferrari even made an Eric Clapton model, but I think it's a $4 million one-off. I haven't seen this happen with watches. For example, a "slowhand" Daytona with a custom color dial or something along those lines, nothing too crazy.
