About this watch
Rolex Yellow Gold Cosmograph Daytona 40 Watch - Champagne Index Dial - 116508 chi
Introduced in 2016 as a defining moment in modern Daytona evolution, the reference 116508 represents Rolex's bold commitment to solid gold construction paired with the refined elegance of a champagne index dial. This 40mm yellow gold iteration marked a significant departure from previous generation cases, incorporating the Cerachrom bezel technology that had revolutionized the collection's durability standards. The champagne dial configuration creates subtle contrast against the warm 18k yellow gold case, while maintaining the classical proportions that have defined the Cosmograph Daytona since its racing-inspired origins. Each element of this unworn example reflects the meticulous attention to detail that distinguishes the 116508 within the contemporary Daytona lineup.
