Cosmograph Daytona 40

The Rolex Daytona, a horological masterpiece dating back to 1963, has a history intricately woven with speed, precision, and the unyielding spirit of racing. Named after the Daytona International Speedway in Florida, this iconic chronograph watch was initially crafted to cater to the needs of professional race car drivers, offering them a tool of impeccable accuracy. Its association with racing legend and actor Paul Newman catapulted its fame to unprecedented heights. Its allure, however, isn’t just confined to the racetrack; it resonates in the world of auction houses, where Daytonas consistently set record prices, underlining their enduring desirability.
