Rolex Daytona Diamond: the gem-set side of a motorsport icon
The Rolex Daytona with Diamonds takes the Cosmograph Daytona from track hero to jewelry watch without losing its chronograph swagger. Within the lineup these halo references combine precious metals, elaborate gem setting, and performance cues, projecting a confident mix of sparkle and speed that you notice across the room. They remain unmistakably Daytona at a glance.
Design and materials
Dials span discreet diamond hour markers, baguette stones framing the registers, and full pavé surfaces that turn the dial into a field of light. Classic colorways pair with diamond accents or full pavé while core legibility is preserved. Cases are the familiar Oyster with Triplock crown and a tachymeter bezel in metal or, on select references, a diamond-set bezel. Metals include 18k yellow, Everose, and white gold, plus platinum, with factory gem setting executed in calibrated harmony.
Bracelets and personalities
Bracelets follow the brief: the heavy three-link Oyster for classic precious-metal presence, or Oysterflex for a modern, sport-leaning twist that still reads luxurious. Within the family, different personalities emerge rather than a single look.

Pricing and collectability
Pricing reflects scarcity and the depth of setting. At retail (if allocated), examples typically span roughly 20,000 to 150,000 depending on metal and diamonds. On the secondary market, unworn or pre-owned pieces range from about 25,000 to well above 1,000,000, driven by metal, gem complexity, movement generation, condition, full set status, and factory versus custom stones. For collectors, they carry strong interest while preserving the core Daytona chronograph DNA.
