Catalogue Essay
- Launched in 2016 with its yellow gold/green dial counterpart, reference 116509 immediately became an instant classic of the Daytona collection.
- The stealthy yet luxurious white gold case and blue dial combination is an iconic design, and the red accents of the dial add a touch of flair to the ensemble. The fact that it is offered by its original owner and complete with all its accessories - even the numbered sale tag - adds collectability to the piece.
- Offered at no reserve, the proceeds of the sale will benefit the Turin-based Regina Margherita Children's Hospital. Already one of the most respected Italian hospitals specializing in the treatment of rare, difficult and chronic ailments in children, the institution currently has the goal of opening a new Neonatal and Early Infancy Pathologies Department.

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.
