About this watch

The Rolex 116518LN-0042 Cosmograph Daytona is a masterpiece that showcases Rolex's commitment to quality and innovation. This luxury watch features a striking combination of yellow gold and a rich champagne-colored dial, capturing attention instantly. The Cerachrom bezel adds a modern twist with its sleek ceramic finish, making it not just a watch but a piece of art. The round case measures 40 mm in diameter and has a height of 12.40 mm, striking a balance between being bold yet manageable for everyday wear. The champagne sunburst finish on the dial is mesmerizing, catching the light beautifully and providing a dynamic look that changes as you move. The stick and dot indexes are elegantly arranged and offer perfect readability, even in low light conditions. Plus, the small seconds sub-dial adds a touch of sophistication without overwhelming the design. Sporting stick hands, this model is all about clarity and precision. The chronograph function is intuitive, with the pushers seamlessly integrated into the case design. The gold accents against the champagne backdrop create a cohesive aesthetic that's hard to resist. Under the hood, the Rolex 116518LN-0042 is powered by the impressive Rolex Caliber 4130. This self-winding mechanical chronograph movement is entirely developed and manufactured in-house by Rolex. When it comes to reliability, this movement shines with fewer components than a standard chronograph, ensuring superior performance. It's not just about ticking; it's about ticking accurately. The Caliber 4130 is a certified Swiss chronometer, having passed rigorous tests by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC). This means you can trust that this watch will keep impeccable time, which is crucial for those who value punctuality. Thanks to the Parachrom hairspring, this movement offers greater resistance to shocks and temperature variations. It's an engineering marvel that guarantees reliability, no matter the conditions you find yourself in. One standout feature of this model is its innovative Oysterflex bracelet. Unlike traditional metal bracelets, the Oysterflex combines the flexibility of rubber with the sturdiness of metal. It's lightweight and comfortable, making it perfect for all-day wear. Plus, it has a sporty edge that complements the Daytona's racing heritage. Wearing the Rolex 116518LN-0042 feels like a dream. The combination of the watch's weight and the soft rubber of the Oysterflex bracelet creates a sensation that's both luxurious and sporty. Whether you're dressed up for a formal event or sporting casual wear, this watch adapts effortlessly. With a water resistance of up to 100 meters, the 116518LN-0042 can handle splashes, rain, and even swimming. While it's not designed for diving, you can confidently wear it for most water activities. This feature adds to its versatility as a daily wear piece.
