For almost 60 years the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona has drawn collectors and enthusiasts around the world together in a shared passion. First introduced in 1963, the Daytona was designed for the demands of professional racing drivers and was named after the famous racing site Daytona, Florida.
The varying configurations of case material, use of precious stones and dial options continue to expand to this day. The current lot is presented in 18K white gold as denoted by the 9 to the end of the reference number and features an attractive mother of pearl dial. The watch is fitted with a Zenith based movement and is amongst the last of its kind before Rolex switched to their in house movement in the year 2000.
