RolexDaytona

Offered by a private collector, this 2022 Rolex Daytona ref. 116500LN was purchased new by the vendor from an authorised dealer. The watch is accompanied by its display box, outer box, warranty card, sleeve, booklets and swing tag. Rolex’s five-year international warranty provides cover on this example until 2027. The vendor advises the watch is in unworn condition and has graded the watch ‘AA’. The images appear to be consistent with their assessment with no signs of wear visible on the case or bracelet. 

Announced at Baselworld 2016, the reference 116500LN was met with much enthusiasm from collectors and enthusiasts. Rolex’s decision to incorporate its ‘Cerachrom’ bezel on the steel Daytona was highly anticipated after appearances on several precious metal variants. This key update gives the model a more contemporary and substantial feel on the wrist and contrasts nicely with the crisp white dial on this “panda” variant. The case remains at 40mm, an ergonomic size suited to a wide range of wrist sizes. 

Housed inside the case is Rolex’s first in-house chronograph movement. The calibre 4130 was introduced in 2000 and has powered the Daytona ever since. It’s equipped with an impressive 72-hour power reserve in addition to being chronometer certified and tested after casing to a tolerance of +2 to -2 seconds per day. 

The Daytona has long been one of Rolex’s most coveted watches. With a history in motor racing, the model represents the perfect combination of sporty looks and luxuriousness.
