Daytona Steel White Dial 40mm

This Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona features a 40mm Oystersteel case that houses a simple yet charming white dial. This Daytona comes paired with an Oyster bracelet that finds an amazing contrast with a black Cerachrom bezel with a tachymetric scale. With this scale, the wearer can easily measure average speeds of up to 400 units, either in miles or kilometers.

The white dial of this Daytona features snailed counters, gold applique hour markers, and hands with a Chromalight display. With the central sweep seconds hands, the wearer can accurately read 1/8 second and the two counters on the dial show the lapsed time in hours and minutes. This reference is water-resistant up to 100 meters and is driven by the Manufacture Rolex 4130 automatic movement, which achieves a power reserve of around 72 hours.

Often known as the Rolex Panda, given its black and white color scheme, this Daytona packs a lot of style and grace. The steel bracelet features Rolex's Oysterlock safety clasp, which prevents accidental opening, along with the Easylink quick-extension system which helps increase the bracelet length by 5mm easily. And yes, no tools required. Its highly legible Chromalight display is great for reading time in the dark, courtesy its long-lasting blue luminescence. The chronograph is easy to operate thanks to the ergonomic pushers that are extremely receptive.

Rapper Jay-Z is an admirer of Rolex's craftsmanship and on several occasions has been spotted wearing the brand's watches. He was once seen sporting a platinum Day-Date featuring an ice-blue dial and Arabic numerals, day, and date. His love for Daytonas is unswerving, as the rapper is known to have the Ref. 116500. American singer, songwriter, and guitarist John Mayer too is known to own the yellow gold Rolex Daytona with a green dial, which is now also known as the ‘John Mayer’ Daytona. English fashion designer Victoria Beckham, American actor Jonah Hill, French footballer Antoine Griezmann, and the lead vocalist of the pop rock band Maroon 5 Adam Levine are some other famous names that are known to own the Daytona.
