About this watch

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116503-0003 is a masterpiece of horology, blending elegance and precision in a stunning package. Crafted from stainless steel and yellow gold, this luxury timepiece boasts a rich history dating back to its introduction in 1963. At the heart lies the Rolex caliber 4130, a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. With fewer components than most chronographs, it promises enhanced reliability and precision. Every Rolex watch, including the Daytona, is certified as a Swiss chronometer, undergoing rigorous tests by the COSC. The champagne-colored dial with sunburst finish catches the light beautifully, creating a captivating visual effect. The combination of materials gives the Daytona a luxurious yet sporty feel, striking a perfect balance between presence and comfort. With its stunning design, innovative movement, and versatile functionality, it stands as a testament to Rolex's commitment to excellence.
