Hmm. Let's see, you want an example of something perfect that exists in reality. Perfection by definition means without flaw. So what's a flaw? Hmm. A flaw can be something that causes deviation from perfection.
So you want an example of something that doesn't deviate from its perfect state. Essentially you want an example of something that doesn't "age", something that exists as it is. You want something that is not affected by space time but if something exist then it will be affected by space time.
So you want an example of something that doesn't exist in reality and exist in reality because in order for something perfect to exist in reality it must not exist in reality.

(After some thinking........)

The answer is vacuum. It exists in reality but also doesn't exist in reality and is exempt from imperfection.

Where's my prize?

Wrong!

Tell me which simple molecules have changed in 4 billion years?
Water? Nup? (and heaps others).

See, nature is the only thing that is perfect. We contain 70 water.
We are all at least 70% perfect... Nice boobs, add 10%. Pretty, add another 10%, theist, deduct 10%, doesn't like bacon, deduct another 10%, hairy armpits, deduct 20%!

Will the vacuum also be receiving a prize? Might be a bit tricky at the awards ceremony.

Okay. So let's consider water as perfect. What happens when you boil it, it turns to vapor - no longer perfect. Every molecule screw other molecules and make baby molecules.

For some thing to be perfect it must exist as it is.

Hmm. So that's a bit confusing... So is that like the first prize or the ..second prize? I bet it's a first prize but I'll take a "second" prize if you don't want to hurt some poor chaps heart. Just make the air quotes when you give it to me

Nope. Gravity can be high or low so it can't be perfect in that aspect.

Water - changing form is not always a sign of imperfection.

Prize - So close, yet so far away.

Gravity - change in variation of strength is not always a sign of imperfection.
