SUMMARY

Announced at Baselworld 2016, the Rolex Daytona 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 represents a new era in design for Rolex’s archetypal motorsport-inspired sports chronograph.
