2023 Rolex Daytona (Ref. 116500LN) White Dial W/ Full Set
First introduced in 1963 the Rolex Daytona has remained a sought-after stable within the Rolex product range. Designed with professional racecar drivers in mind, the Daytona’s precision chronograph and tachymeter bezel allowed drivers to accurately measure speeds up to 400 kilometers or miles per hour. The release of the Daytona came just after Rolex had become the official timekeeper of the Daytona racetrack and the name evolved as a way for the brand to highlight its connection to the celebrated race.
In 2016, the Daytona ref. 116500LN brought the famed Rolex model into the modern age with the introduction of the ceramic bezel, though by doing so, it also celebrated the original design aesthetic of the acrylic bezel Daytonas of the 1960s-70s. This Daytona model became so popular after its introduction that it became almost impossible to purchase directly from Rolex, creating the overall craze for modern stainless steel Rolex models. Though, this isn't without reason, as the ref. 116500LN is one of the most beautiful and wearable modern Rolex models ever produced.
