Rolex 116500LN Daytona Ceramic SS Black Dial

The Rolex 116500LN Daytona marks a watershed moment in the modern history of Rolex’s flagship chronograph. Released in 2016, it became the first stainless steel Daytona fitted with a cutting-edge black Cerachrom ceramic bezel—an innovation combining exceptional scratch resistance with the classic tachymetric scale revered by enthusiasts. Its 40mm Oystersteel case, prized for remarkable durability and lustrous finish, houses the in-house automatic Caliber 4130, renowned for its robust column wheel construction and vertical clutch, delivering superior precision and dependability under demanding conditions. The black dial, accented by contrasting white subdials, ensures optimal legibility and pays subtle homage to historic Daytona racing chronographs. Water-resistant to 100 meters, the 116500LN balances performance, prestige, and collectability, maintaining the professional toolwatch DNA while offering luxury on the wrist. The integrated Oyster bracelet in matching steel completes the watch’s cohesive aesthetic and comfort. For collectors, it represents the convergence of contemporary innovation and the Daytona lineage—crafted for the technically discerning and style-conscious alike. It stands as both a symbol of Rolex’s forward-thinking and an enduring, sought-after reference in the world of luxury sports chronographs. Like New with Rolex box and papers dated 2023.
