Introduced in 2016 and discontinued in 2023, the reference 116500LN marks a significant chapter in the evolution of the Rolex Daytona. It is the first stainless steel iteration to feature a black Cerachrom ceramic bezel, offering enhanced scratch resistance while subtly recalling the aesthetic of early four-digit Daytonas with their black acrylic inserts.
Crafted in stainless steel and measuring 40 mm, the watch retains the model’s iconic proportions and balanced wrist presence. It is powered by the self-winding chronograph calibre 4130, entirely developed and manufactured in-house by Rolex.
Offered as a complete set, this reference stands as a defining modern classic—an essential acquisition for both seasoned collectors and those seeking to establish a discerning collection.
