The Rolex Daytona is widely regarded as an icon in the world of luxury watches, and it’s not at all difficult to see why. It offers a timeless design backed by superb underlying functionality that traces its roots to a vibrant racing heritage. What’s more, the state of the grey market indicates you couldn’t sell your Daytona at a loss even if you wanted to, so you could always tell your wife it was an investment.
The particular ref. 116523 on offer here sports a deep blue dial that draws inspiration from the aesthetic of late-20th century motorsports and is adorned with applied gold Roman numerals, hands, logo, and indices. The case and bracelet combine steel and gold elements, but they don’t spoil the piece’s sporty aesthetic. On the contrary – they complete it. The red flourishes on the dial underline the sporty color palette and soften the transition to the glistening gold tachymetric bezel, tying the design together beautifully.
Inside, behind the solid caseback, the venerated caliber 4130 is ticking accurately away, chronograph at the ready.
