Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona 40mm 18K White Gold Blue Sunburst Dial Watch W/Card (Ref. 116509) - This iconic timepiece from Rolex is a rare iteration of one of the brand's most impeccable and highest sought after designs. This Cosmograph Daytona model is crafted of solid 18k white gold and features a 40mm Oyster case, fixed bezel with engraved tachymetric scale, Rolex caliber 4130 perpetual mechanical chronograph self-winding movement, screw down crown with Triplock triple waterproofness system, scratch resistant sapphire crystal, and rare blue sunburst dial with luminous two-toned hands, and a trio of sub-dials.
