Rolex Daytona Cosmograph 116520 watch, the scarce Rolex watch with its original papers (Rolex card serial number G) from 2012. A luxury watch in steel, black dial, and three waterproof screwed push counters. The Rolex Daytona 116520 is one of the rarest and most sought-after watches. Appreciated and worn as much by men as by women, it is an elegant timepiece whose timeless lines take root in the early sixties, precisely in 1963, with the Rolex Cosmograph 6239, which will be adorned in 1968 and a bit later with a new dial originally called the exotic dial. This watch later will star in its mythical association with the Nascar racing driver actor: Paul Newman.
At that time, Rolex will challenge Heuer on his favourite field: motor racing. History and especially the craze of Americans for motor racing will direct Rolex towards communicating the timepiece to the racing circuits. However, at the start, everyone forgot that the 6239 chronographs were destined for space by Rolex, hence the initial Cosmograph denomination of the Rolex 116520 Daytona. Little by little, the mention of Daytona will take over the mention of Cosmograph, only making it a distant memory today.
The Rolex Daytona 116520 presented here is accompanied by its original papers (series G) from 2012. It is equipped with a self-winding movement Rolex calibre 4130 with 44 jewels, a modern movement, reliable and resistant to shocks, vibrations, temperature differences and magnetic influences. It is chronometer-certified by the Geneva COSC, with a power reserve of seventy-two hours. Rolex manufactures this movement in its workshops.
In terms of use, the Rolex Daytona Cosmograph 116520 will be a watch for men or women that is easy to wear and, above all, will be the subject of all attention. Known and recognized star watch, it is one of the great classics that are rare to obtain, and many queues are formed from year to year at Rolex dealers, which explains the increase in its price on the second-hand market. Often the culmination of a collection of watches appears at the top of the list of searches on the web and often sounds in the first columns of auction catalogues. In the world of collectables, the Rolex Daytona 116520 is often considered the holy grail. For some, it is a must. For others, an enigma. Still, in any case, it is a best seller skillfully maintained and regularly improved by Rolex, which has continued to increase its capital of popularity since the nineties without guessing the epilogue of its career.
