Description
- The Daytona has long been one of Rolex’s most coveted watches
- This 2011 example offers the added appeal of a ‘Paul Newman’ dial, which takes its nickname from the dial’s design, which is similar to that of a vintage Daytona worn by the late actor and racing driver
- The 40mm Oyster case and bracelet are crafted from 18K yellow gold, providing plenty of wrist presence
- The red ‘DAYTONA’ script, chapter ring and chronograph hand add a touch of colour
- Among the model line’s third generation, the ref. 116528 launched in 2000 and is historically significant for being the first gold Daytona to be driven by a fully in-house Rolex-developed movement
- The calibre 4130 is a self-winding vertical clutch chronograph boasting a 72-hour power reserve and represented a big step for Rolex in bringing production of the Daytona completely in-house
- The vendor confirms this Daytona is in excellent condition and perfect working order
- Presented in its original display box, the sale also includes all papers
Location: Jersey, Channel Islands
