For sale at Debonar Watches: pre-owned Rolex Daytona 116518LN in excellent conditions, with card Rolex and box. The strap is an Oysterflex by Rubber B. This 18k gold and ceramic 40mm watch case presents a neat champagne dial with gold subdials.While the upgrade to Cerachrom is significant compared to the 116518 reference, it’s the Oysterflex that radically changes what this watch is, and how it wears on the wrist. The Oysterflex is Rolex’s extremely over-engineered take on sporty rubber, first spotted on the Yacht-Master.Story:While the Daytona is now widely loved and worn by everyone from the newbie collector to your boss’s boss, the Rolex Daytona is firstly a racing watch.It was made for motorsport professionals and was named after the famous Daytona Beach in Florida, where numerous land speed records were broken.Introduced in 1963, the reference 6239 Daytona was the first Rolex chronograph with a tachymeter bezel that allowed its wearer to measure the speed of an object. The watch gained traction in the racing world but did not gain widespread acceptance until later, thanks in part to a handsome actor/race car driver named Paul Newman. Born in the late '80s, this reference became the first Cosmograph to offer a combination platter of metals.Over the years, the model has seen various updates and has become one of the most desirable watch models in the world.
