Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Ref. 126500LN

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona with reference 126500LN, from 2026, marks the latest evolution of the world's most sought-after diving and racing watch. Completely redesigned for the model's 60th anniversary, this version in extremely durable Oystersteel features refined case proportions and a defining innovation: the black Cerachrom ceramic bezel is now framed by an elegant, high-polished stainless steel rim. A timeless high-end chronograph combining motorsport heritage with modern Geneva-made precision.

• Redesigned 40 mm Oystersteel case: The case in high-strength 904L stainless steel captivates with newly balanced flanks and lugs that reflect light even more dynamically. It offers an ideal diameter and an exceptionally comfortable fit on the wrist.

• Black Cerachrom bezel with stainless steel rim: For the first time, the fixed ceramic bezel with engraved tachymeter scale is protected by a fine stainless steel ring. The scale markings are coated with a thin layer of platinum using the PVD process for lasting legibility and UV resistance.

• Perfectly balanced dial with Chromalight: Whether in the iconic “Panda” look (White with Black subdial rings) or deep Black, the dial stands out with slimmer, more elegantly proportioned 18-karat White Gold indexes. The intensely blue-glowing Chromalight luminescent material ensures flawless legibility in all lighting conditions.

• In-house Manufacture Calibre 4131: Inside, the groundbreaking Automatic chronograph movement of the latest generation is at work. It features a reduced number of components for greater reliability, the antimagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, a Paraflex shock-absorption system, and the highly efficient Chronergy escapement (approximately 72 hours of power reserve, accuracy of -2/+2 seconds per day).

• Scratch-resistant Sapphire Crystal: A flat, highly durable Sapphire Crystal reliably protects the artistically designed dial from everyday scratches.

• Screw-down crown & pushers (100 m / 10 ATM): Thanks to the screw-down Triplock winding crown and screw-down chronograph pushers, the Daytona offers absolute case integrity for maximum reliability in all conditions.

• Solid Oyster bracelet with Oysterlock & Easylink: The Daytona is worn on a three-piece, satin-finished and polished Oyster bracelet in Oystersteel. The Oysterlock safety folding clasp prevents accidental opening, while the Easylink system allows the bracelet to be extended by 5 mm without tools.

  • • • Ultimate modern collector's highlight (2026 model year): As a highly sought-after model from 2024, reference 126500LN combines the most coveted Rolex motorsport heritage with forward-looking watchmaking technology. An essential statement piece with exceptional value retention for any discerning collection.
