When the race tracks call, Rolex answers with its most sought-after and desirable timepiece - the Cosmograph Daytona - a purpose-driven, handsome sports watch.
Why we love it
Rolex Daytona is the king of motorsports watches. One of the most sought-after and difficult-to-attain Rolex timepieces ever, Daytona enjoys unparalleled love from connoisseurs around the world. Launched in 2004, it comes equipped with requisite racing elements together with high precision and luxe details, making it a quintessential Rolex.
This impressive Cosmograph Daytona reference 116518 comes with an 18k yellow gold case, moderately sized at 40mm and kitted with a yellow gold crown, pushers, and bezel that features a tachymeter scale. It was later replaced by the widely popular Cerachrom bezel in 2011. The luminous hour markers inject even more functionality, and the deletion of the date window allows better legibility. An impressive level of depth is achieved on the blue dial via the aesthetically designed sub-counters at three, six, and nine o'clock. Complementing slender hands complete this gem.
The automatic calibre 4130 ensures accurate timekeeping both on and off the track. With a staggering 72 hours of power reserve and 100 metres of water resistance, this Cosmograph Daytona is a reliable tool watch that will match your racing suit as perfectly as your blazer.
This Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116518 shows visible scratches on the case, bezel, and caseback. Some nicks are also noticeable on the lugs and clasp. Please note the watch comes with a non-branded leather strap.
Provenance
At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
Please note all our transactions with sellers are conducted via registered banking channels, accompanied by a signed affidavit, banking proof, and PAN card.
A specific affidavit stating the watch is not a stolen property and that all applicable duties have been paid is also obtained from the seller and is available for buyers in case of legal requirements.
We strive to build trust through transparency and diligence, outlining our verification process and the inherent limitations. Our commitment to integrity shapes every transaction, prioritising your confidence while acknowledging the realities of the pre-owned watch market.
