Rolex Daytona 18kt yellow gold

Rolex Daytona, the racing classic in 18 carat yellow gold. The Rolex Daytona chronograph has a history that goes back more than half a century. At a time when Rolex was not yet a well-known brand, a precursor model was already developed. However, this was not yet called Daytona. This forerunner was created between 1955 and 1961 and was initially sold over the counter for little money due to low demand. Today, the old models have long since become rarities and are therefore worth several tens of thousands of euros.

Daytona's recovery came later
The name Daytona was only given to the appropriate Rolex references from 1962. It goes back to a car race that has been taking place in Florida, USA, since the beginning of the 20th century. Numerous race records were achieved in this race. Sir Malcom Campbell was one of the great record holders – and at the same time a very enthusiastic Rolex wearer. Campbell praised the brand for the unique robustness that was proven time and again in his races. In 1962, the Rolex company began timing the race and officially named the reference 6239 Daytona. Today, races are still held at Daytona, including the popular 24-hour race. Rolex has maintained its commitment to this racing experience ever since.
The Rolex Daytona: Modern models at uhren2000.de
That's why Rolex Daytona chronographs are still manufactured today. You can find an exquisite selection of more than a dozen models at uhren2000.de. All Rolex Daytona models presented here, reference 116528, 116508 and 116518, have a case made of 18-carat yellow gold. Some of the chronographs are equipped with fine leather straps in different colors, for example black. The other part, however, has exclusive yellow gold bracelets. The individual chronometers differ in the color and material of the dials as well as in the labeling of the bezels. Although the movement is identical in all models, not every Daytona is like the next.

Ultimate watch not just for racing drivers
The Rolex Daytona yellow gold is a symbol of precision and perfection. With its reliable chronograph movement and tachymeter bezel, it was specifically designed to meet the needs of professional racing drivers and also impresses amateur athletes and lovers of sporty luxury watches. Technical details have characterized the sporty chronograph since 1963. These include the pushers for the chronograph functions.
Like the winding crown, these pushers can be screwed on, ensuring water resistance up to a depth of 100 meters. A typical identifying feature is the clear click when starting, stopping and resetting the chronograph. The pushers are also equipped with optimal resistance. This means that when you press the button, the timer starts very precisely and without any loss of time.
Clearly designed dials
The same precision characterizes the central seconds on the dial of the Rolex Daytona yellow gold. It enables perfect reading of the eighth of a second. Two totalizers show the elapsed time on the dial in hour and minute increments. The dial itself is considered the face of every Rolex Daytona yellow gold. Its color design gives the chronograph special individuality. Dark dials in black and blue stand next to the light versions in white or mother-of-pearl. Diamonds on the dials of some models in the Rolex Daytona Yellow Gold series give this remarkable watch additional exclusivity. The perfect readability of the time on the dials is legendary.
Different bracelets
A Rolex Daytona yellow gold is worn on various bracelets. The Oyster bracelet made of solid yellow gold guarantees high wearing comfort. The three-row metal bracelet with wide and flat elements is the most common bracelet. Leather bracelets in different colors give the Rolex Daytona yellow gold sportiness.
