The Daytona Rolex Timepiece
The Daytona Rolex Introduced at Baselworld in 2016, the reference 116500 demonstrates Rolex’s unparalleled mastery of noticeably advancing collections while still nodding to the past. Replacing the 116520, this updated Daytona Rolex is most easily distinguished by its black Cerachrom bezel, as seen on both the white and black dial variants. Though Rolex had fitted Daytona models with Cerachrom bezels in the past, the 116500’s release marks their first instance of doing so on a stainless steel model.
The reference is also representative of a return to form, as its dial features contrasting subdial surrounds similar to that of the Zenith Daytona. Paired with a black ceramic bezel, this most modern watch channels the spirit of even earlier Daytona’s fitted with black acrylic bezels, making it the ultimate horological marriage of 1970s flair and today’s advanced engineering. After having been anticipated for years by collectors, prior to its release, it’s now firmly positioned as the brand’s most desirable model.
The Daytona Rolex Performance
The Rolex Daytona is not just a pretty face; it is built for performance. Powered by the Rolex Caliber 4130, this chronograph movement is known for its reliability and precision. With a power reserve of approximately 72 hours, the Daytona Rolex ensures that you will always have accurate timekeeping, whether you’re at the track or enjoying a night out.
The watch is also water-resistant up to 100 meters (330 feet), making it suitable for various activities, including swimming and snorkeling. The combination of durability and functionality makes the Daytona Rolex a trustworthy companion for anyone who leads an active lifestyle
