ROLEX – Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona

Introducing the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona  

1963 saw Rolex launch a watch inspired by the Daytona Beach (Florida) car races that were held from the 1900s to the 1950s: Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona. Then in 1965, the model was updated and its bezel was given a plexiglass ring, its pump pushers were replaced with screw-down ones and its dial was engraved with “Oyster” and “Daytona”.

The whole thing is brought to life by the self-winding 4130 calibre inside the 40mm steel case.

Price: 11,800 CHF
