Catalogue Essay
Released in 2016 and immediately a success, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116500LN replaced the ref. 116520. Powered by the same caliber 4130, the new model was the first Daytona in stainless steel that featured the firm’s innovated Cerachrom bezel. Launched in two variations including another with a black dial, the white version is what most desire for as the contrast between the dial with black registers and the Cerachrom bezel is simply a stunner. With an ever-growing cult status, the ref. 116500LN is still today one of the hardest models to acquire from the retailers with extremely long waiting lists.
The present example Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116500LN with a white dial is offered in excellent condition with all its original guarantee and accessories. Surely a delight for collectors seeking for the iconic “Panda” and an icon of Cosmograph Daytona.

Rolex
Swiss | 1905Founded in 1905 England by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis as Wilsdorf & Davis, it soon became known as the Rolex Watch Company in 1915, moving its headquarters to Geneva in 1919. Like no other company, the success of the wristwatch can be attributed to many of Rolex's innovations that made them one of the most respected and well-known of all luxury brands. These innovations include their famous "Oyster" case — the world's first water resistant and dustproof watch case, invented in 1926 — and their "Perpetual" — the first reliable self-winding movement for wristwatches launched in 1933. They would form the foundation for Rolex's Datejust and Day-Date, respectively introduced in 1945 and 1956, but also importantly for their sports watches, such as the Explorer, Submariner and GMT-Master launched in the mid-1950s.One of its most famous models is the Cosmograph Daytona. Launched in 1963, these chronographs are without any doubt amongst the most iconic and coveted of all collectible wristwatches. Other key collectible models include their most complicated vintage watches, including references 8171 and 6062 with triple calendar and moon phase, "Jean Claude Killy" triple date chronograph models and the Submariner, including early "big-crown" models and military-issued variants.
