Rolex is presenting its new-generation Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona, which has been updated across the entire range.
The singular design of the case and face has characterized the chronograph since its launch, and has now been revisited with subtle refinements to a number of details.
The dial receives new graphic balance, and harmonious colour combinations accentuate the contrast between the dial and the counters – or their rings.
The Oyster case has been redesigned, and its profile is highlighted by the light reflections on the lugs and case sides.
On versions with a Cerachrom bezel, the bezel is edged with a thin band of the same metal as the middle case.
From this year, the Cosmograph Daytona is equipped with calibre 4131.
This new chronograph movement, an evolution of calibre 4130, incorporates a number of the major innovations that Rolex has brought to its movements, including the Chronergy escapement.
Particular attention has been paid to aesthetics. The calibre features a cut-out oscillating weight and completely new finishes – notably on the bridges, which are embellished with Rolex Côtes de Genève, the brand’s reinterpretation of a well-known decoration in watchmaking.
Calibre 4131 enables the Cosmograph Daytona to measure intervals of time via the chronograph function, in addition to displaying the hours, minutes and seconds.
A prestigious and iconic watch, the Cosmograph Daytona in 950 platinum now features a transparent case back as well as an oscillating weight made of 18 ct yellow gold.
Like all Rolex watches, the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona carries the Superlative Chronometer certification, which ensures excellent performance on the wrist.
