Description
The Rolex Daytona (116588SACO) is a masterpiece of “Haute Joaillerie” watchmaking, reimagining the world’s most famous racing chronograph through a lens of extreme opulence. The architectural highlight of this reference is the fixed bezel, meticulously set with 32 baguette-cut orange sapphires. These stones are hand-selected for their color consistency, creating a seamless gradient of fire that perfectly complements the warmth of the solid 18 ct yellow gold case.
The Black Dial provides a high-contrast backdrop, making the 8 diamond-set hour markers and the yellow gold snailed sub-dials pop with exceptional clarity. Originally debuted as a tool for the racetrack, this 40mm Oyster case maintains its professional integrity with a Triplock winding crown and screw-down chronograph pushers, ensuring a waterproof depth of 100 meters.
Inside, the watch is powered by the legendary Calibre 4130, a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement known for its streamlined architecture and incredible reliability. It features a vertical clutch system for a smooth, precise start to the chronograph hand and a blue Parachrom hairspring that remains unaffected by magnetic fields and shocks. With a robust 72-hour power reserve and fitted on a high-performance Oysterflex bracelet—which combines the durability of a metal blade with the comfort of an elastomer strap—the 116588SACO is a bold investment in both art and engineering.
