Description

Like many longtime collectors, it is difficult for us to escape the draw of Rolex - the brand that has overcome many odds to stand where it does today, and the Daytona is not only one of their most aspirational models but this example is also in the best condition possible for its discontinued reference.

The Rolex Daytona is among the most desirable watches today, with many pointing to its "perfect proportions" as a main factor. Proportions are challenging to get right, especially in a chronograph, and many brands fall flat. How often do you feel that a chronograph is too thick or its bezel is too broad or its sub dials are too small? Thankfully for the Daytona, perfect proportionality is a cornerstone of Rolex's business, evident from both its watches and marketing.


This example represents the pinnacle of collectability among those of regular production, because, despite the reference's discontinuation in 2016, it remains unworn, fully stickered, and present as a complete set.

Conditions Report

This complete set is in new old stock condition and effectively brand new. The case and bracelet retain all their (albeit slightly yellowed) factory stickers and are devoid of scratches. Expectedly, the dial and hands are flawless as well.
