Rolex Cosmograph Daytona in Oystersteel and yellow gold with a white dial and contrasting counter rings

The Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona in Oystersteel and yellow gold with a white dial and contrasting counter rings. It features an Oyster bracelet and a yellow gold bezel with an engraved tachymetric scale.

With its tachymetric scale, its three counters and its pushers, the Cosmograph Daytona was designed to be the ultimate timing tool for endurance racing drivers. The bezel features a tachymetric scale to read average speed over a given distance based on elapsed time.

This scale offers optimal legibility, making the Cosmograph Daytona the ideal instrument for measuring speeds up to 400 units per hour, expressed in kilometres or miles.

This model features a white dial with spray-coated counters, 18 ct gold applique hour markers and hands with a Chromalight display, a highly-legible luminescent material.

The dial allows drivers to accurately map out their track times and tactics without fail.

Gold is coveted for its lustre and nobility. Steel reinforces strength and reliability. Together, they harmoniously combine the best of their properties.

The design, development and production of Rolex bracelets and clasps, as well as the stringent tests they face, involve advanced high technology. And, as with all the components of the watch, aesthetic controls by the human eye guarantee impeccable beauty.
