Details & Specifications
Description:
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 116520 with a white dial, produced in 2008, is a celebrated model among collectors and enthusiasts, especially now that it has been discontinued. Crafted in robust 904L stainless steel, this version of the Daytona features a sleek 40mm case paired with a clean, high-contrast white dial, accented by polished silver subdials that enhance legibility and style.
Powered by Rolex’s first fully in-house chronograph movement, the Calibre 4130, the 116520 offered improved reliability and a more efficient design compared to its predecessors. The watch includes the iconic tachymeter-engraved bezel, screw-down pushers, and 100 meters of water resistance, making it both sporty and sophisticated. As the last generation of steel Daytonas before the switch to ceramic bezels, the 116520 holds a special place in Rolex history and continues to gain value and recognition in the watch community.
This piece presents in excellent condition with the original box and a Rolex Service Card from 2021, circa 2008.
