Still in production to this day, the present Rolex Daytona reference 116509, cased in white gold, is an elegant and refined variant of the well-known sporty Rolex Daytona reference 116500. Extremely requested and virtually un-attainable the present timepiece, like its stainless steel brother, has an ever-growing cult status and is today one of the hardest models to acquire from the retailers with extremely long waiting lists.

Cased at 40mm diameter, with a white gold bezel and engraved tachymeter scale the timepiece carries presence and sits extremely comfortably on the wrist. Showcasing a stunning grey dial with three sub registers, the dial displays black 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, small seconds at 6 o’clock, and a 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock. Extremely legible, the grey dial and white gold case make the three black subdials strikingly visible, further giving the timepiece a sporty yet elegant attire.

Inside, the timepiece is made alive thanks to the in-house calibre 4130, a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement specifically designed by Rolex for their Daytona models and boasting a 72-hour power reserve.

The present example of Rolex Daytona reference 116509, with its attractive grey dial is offered in barely worn condition and is accompanied by guarantee, fitted presentation box and outer packaging.
