The Rolex Daytona 116500LN is one of those watches that is well known amongst watch collectors and normal people alike. Mention the words Rolex Daytona and depending on who you talk to they will variously think of words like luxury, hard-to-get, Paul Newman, SS shortage, extreme grey market pricing and so on. Everyone seems to know this watch but not many people have the opportunity to see and feel it and fewer still to buy it either at RRP or “market” price.

The Rolex Daytona, in its current stainless steel iteration, is the 116500LN. Introduced in 2016, it is available with both a white and black face (both with a black ceramic bezel) in a SS case and bracelet with polished centre links.

I have always had mixed feelings about the Daytona. I loved the steel-bezel 16520/116520 model of the ‘90s/2000s. Alas was unable to afford it at the time. Time passed and for my 40th birthday I traded in my motorbike, added some cash and purchased the 116523 two-tone Daytona. That was that itch scratched, and I was happy.
