Rolex Daytona 116503

Description

• Oystersteel & yellow gold

An undisputed icon of motorsport and a symbol of exceptional watchmaking expertise, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona represents the perfect fusion of robustness, precision, and elegance. First introduced in 1963, it has remained for six decades the ultimate benchmark among prestige chronographs.

Reference 116503, crafted in Oystersteel and 18-carat yellow gold, stands as the contemporary interpretation of the legendary two-tone model. Introduced in 2016, this watch combines the technical excellence of a high-performance chronograph with the refined brilliance of precious materials. Its deep black dial, enhanced by applied gold hour markers and sunken subdials, ensures optimal legibility while reinforcing the sporty and sophisticated identity of the model.

The 40 mm Oyster case, water-resistant to 100 metres, houses the calibre 4130, an automatic chronograph movement developed and manufactured entirely in-house by Rolex. Equipped with a column wheel and a vertical clutch, it offers exceptionally smooth and precise chronograph operation. With a power reserve of 72 hours and Superlative Chronometer certification, it guarantees outstanding timekeeping performance.

Fitted with an Oyster bracelet in steel and yellow gold featuring the Oysterlock clasp with Easylink extension system, this Daytona provides impeccable comfort and a perfect balance between sportiness and luxury.

This 2020 example is offered with its complete original set, including the Rolex guarantee card, green seal, manuals, cardholder, box, and outer box.
