Sporty charm with the Rolex Daytona
The Rolex Daytona is today one of the most popular Rolex models worldwide. And there are reasons for that. The model is known for its iconic design, precision movement and close ties to motorsport. And that also explains its name.
In 1963, Rolex introduced the Rolex Cosmograph. And although the name Daytona was not yet on the dial, this watch is considered the first real Rolex Daytona. One enthusiast who appreciated the design of the Daytona was motorsports legend and actor Paul Newman. Newman often wore his Daytona and was regularly photographed wearing this famous watch. His own Daytona reference 6239 sold at auction for a whopping $17.800.000.
The story behind the Rolex Daytona
