Daytona Noir

An absolute icon of the chronograph sports watch, the Rolex Daytona ref. 116520 with a black dial represents a significant milestone in the collection’s history. Produced between 2000 and 2016, it marked the arrival of Rolex’s first 100% in-house chronograph movement, the calibre 4130, making it a highly sought-after timepiece for watch enthusiasts.

Its 40 mm Oystersteel case features a fixed, engraved tachymeter bezel, highlighting its racing origins. The lacquered black dial displays three balanced silver subdials (small seconds, 30-minute totalizer, and 12-hour counter) for optimal legibility of the chronograph functions. The steel Oyster bracelet with Oysterlock clasp ensures robustness and everyday comfort.

The Rolex 4130 automatic movement, a certified chronometer (COSC), offers a 72-hour power reserve, a column wheel, a vertical clutch, and a simplified architecture that enhances the watch’s reliability.

Currently offered in Zürich, this certified luxury watch is in good condition and comes as a full set with Rolex box, warranty card, original papers, and all accessories. It benefits from certified pre-owned status, guaranteeing rigorous authentication, comprehensive inspection, and complete transparency.

The Rolex Daytona 116520 with a black dial is an iconic pre-owned watch in Zürich, as elegant as it is sporty, and highly prized by connoisseurs for its historic movement and refined aesthetics.
