In 2023, Rolex celebrated the 60th anniversary of the iconic Daytona Cosmograph, which first premiered in 1963 and today is one of the most sought after and iconic timepieces ever produced. The reference 126500LN was released in 2023 and is very much a 21st century Daytona Cosmograph housing Rolex’s caliber 4131 and sporting an updated Cerachrom bezel, first introduced in 2016 with the reference 116500LN. The 40mm diameter case was redesigned with a slimmer profile and downturned lugs compared to earlier models. The Cerachrom bezel now has a thin metallic edge to better protect the bezel from damage if accidentally dropped. The dial, still available in white with black subsidiary dials or black with silvered chapter rings, has a modern appeal with smaller hour markers and thinner fonts. The dial also has a small Rolex crown at 6 o’clock indicating a new generation movement now fitted with Rolex’s highly accurate and efficient Chronergy escapement. The present watch is offered in brand new, unworn condition with factory stickers still affixed, and is accompanied by all of its original accessories. An absolute instant success with clients, waitlists immediately filled up at retailers upon its introduction and now are measured in years, rather than months.
