The Rolex Daytona collection has gone through more than half a century since its birth. Over the decades, Daytona has evolved and people’s perceptions of it have changed completely. Today, Daytona is considered one of the most important chronographs in the world. The Daytona collection has been Rolex’s only chronograph. And it is also the most complicated watch offered by this brand. Let’s take a look at what the first and latest Daytona looks like.
Rolex Daytona Cosmograph 6239 Replica
Daytona’s story begins with a stainless steel watch. What really owns the Daytona name is the 1963 chronograph. Replica Rolex Daytona Cosmograph 6239 is the first Daytona watch. What was unexpected was that this watch was not popular when it was launched.
The case, bracelet, bezel and buttons of the first Daytona watch were made of 904L stainless steel. It has a 37MM case. There is a small dial at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock in the dial. The speedometer bezel is modeled after an Omega watch. But Rolex Daytona moved the tacho from the dial to the bezel. We must acknowledge that the combination of bezel and dial provides excellent readability. There is another important thing you should know. The famous Rolex Paul Newman Daytona is one of the watches in Ref. 6239.
Movement
Inside the replica Rolex Daytona Cosmograph 6239 is the Valjoux 72 B movement. The Valjoux 72 B movement should be the best chronograph movement of the time. Because it is now considered one of the greatest chronograph movements in history. Although the Cosmograph 6239 at that time did not have a self-winding chronograph movement, you will feel that your wound watch has a greater meaning and story. Cosmograph 6239 remained until 1969. Daytona has been improving and has released some new models. However, Rolex Daytona Cosmograph received attention at the end of 1988.
Waiting has long been part of everyday life for Daytona fans. If you want to buy a steel version of Daytona, you may have to wait ten years. Replica Rolex deliberately produces only a small number of stainless steel versions of Daytona. The purpose of this behavior is probably to encourage more customers to buy more profitable gold or two-color chronographs. You need to know that two-color Daytona watches cost less than stainless steel.
Rolex Daytona 116500LN Replica
The latest Daytona watches were released in 2016. The appearance of Rolex Daytona 116500LN made fans very happy. Because this is also an all-steel watch, except for the Cerachrom ceramic bezel. It is now the only all-steel replica watch in the Rolex Daytona collection. It offers two options, white and black dial. Rolex is right in choosing a ceramic bezel over a stainless steel bezel. Although the stainless steel bezel is more classic, the ceramic bezel is more rigid and scratch-resistant.
Three small dials with discernibility have been kept in the dial. The 40mm 904L case and polished middle link are unique. From the first to the latest Daytona 116500LN, the biggest difference between them is the movement. Replica Rolex Daytona 116500LN has a Cal. 4130 movement. It is the best mass-produced chronograph movement ever made by Rolex. The Rolex movement insists on fewer parts and a lower error rate. The Cal.4130 movement consists of only 201 parts and can provide a power reserve of 72 hours.
From the first Daytona to the latest Daytona watches, this collection is one of the most durable watches ever. And it has a more perfect size and thickness, so it is very comfortable to wear on the wrist. It is also more elegant than other sports watch collections. It is a watch that can match any gender and place.
