Description
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona, reference 126505, is a high-performance watch crafted from 18 kt Everose gold, an exclusive Rolex alloy renowned for its resistance to tarnishing and lustrous pink hue. The watch features a 40 mm Oyster case, a Rolex hallmark known for its water resistance and robust construction. The Oyster architecture of the case utilizes a monobloc middle case, screw-down case back, and screw-down winding crown to ensure the timepiece maintains its water resistance up to 100 meters (330 feet). The screw-down crown incorporates the Triplock triple waterproofness system, a Rolex innovation that enhances the watch’s resistance to the elements.
Encased within the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal is a bright black and Sundust chronograph dial. The dial features snailed counters, 18 kt Everose gold applique hour markers, and hands with Chromalight display, a luminescent material that offers exceptional legibility in low-light conditions. The watch boasts a central sweep seconds hand that allows for precise readings down to 1/8th of a second, ideal for those who rely on split-second timing. Complementary to the chronograph functionality, the dial also features a trio of subdials: a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock and a 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock, along with a small seconds display at 6 o’clock.
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Ref. 126505 incorporates a tachymetric bezel, a Rolex innovation that converts elapsed time into speed. The bezel is crafted from 18Everose gold and features engraved markings that facilitate tachymetric calculations. This functionality makes the Cosmograph Daytona a valuable tool for those who participate in motorsports or activities that require speed measurement. The timepiece is powered by the Rolex Calibre 4131, a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement manufactured by Rolex. This COSC-certified chronometer movement delivers exceptional timekeeping precision of -2/+2 seconds per day. The Calibre 4131 incorporates a paramagnetic blueParachrom hairspring that is resistant to magnetic interference and equips the watch with high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers for enhanced durability. The movement boasts an impressive 72-hour power reserve, ensuring the watch continues to operate even after extended periods without being worn. GenderMen
