Raised yellow gold Arabic numerals accent the 15, 30 and 45-minute positions, complemented by an arrow-tipped 18K yellow gold central chronograph hand. Three chronograph subdials display 60 seconds at 6 o’clock, 30 minutes at 3 o’clock and 12 hours at 9 o’clock, all framed by an outer minute marker track. An off-catalog configuration, this watch represents an exceptionally rare variation of the Daytona in outstanding condition.

The watch is housed in a robust Oyster case with a screwed-down caseback, pushers and crown. Its Triplock winding crown is protected by pointed crown guards, while two 18K yellow gold screw-down pushers operate the chronograph function. The 18K yellow gold Oyster bracelet with a flip-lock clasp completes the design.

Powering this Daytona is its chronometer automatic self-winding chronograph movement, featuring a rhodium-plated straight-line lever escapement, monometallic balance adjusted to temperatures and five positions, shock absorber, self-compensating free-sprung Breguet balance spring, Microstella regulating screws and hack mechanism.

Inspired by the world of motorsports and famously associated with Paul Newman, the Rolex Daytona is among the most iconic chronographs ever produced. In this exceptional and complete example—accompanied by its full kit including box, papers, soft cloth, original purchase receipt, instruction book and warranty—the legendary Daytona is elevated to a truly prime and highly collectible statement of technical mastery and luxury.
