Rolex 116509 Daytona 18K White Gold Black Diamond Dial

The Rolex 116509 Daytona in 18K white gold with black dial and diamond hour markers is a compelling expression of the modern Cosmograph’s enduring legacy. Powered by Rolex’s in‑house Caliber 4130 automatic chronograph movement, this reference delivers a robust 72‑hour power reserve and COSC‑certified precision, reinforcing its status as a professional racing instrument. The 40 mm white‑gold Oyster case, introduced around 2016, is both substantial and refined, with a fixed tachymeter bezel that underscores its motorsport heritage. The black dial, adorned with factory‑set diamond indices, elevates the aesthetic with discreet luxury, while maintaining the Daytona’s characteristic legibility and subdial layout. Water‑resistant to 100 meters, the watch balances sportiness with elegance, and the solid white‑gold Oyster bracelet with Oysterlock clasp and Easylink extension ensures both security and comfort. Though not a limited edition, this variant stands out for its luxurious execution within the Daytona lineup—highly sought after by collectors seeking white‑gold Daytona models with precious-dial details. Its combination of technical excellence, in‑house chronograph caliber, and tasteful diamond accents make it a distinguished addition to any serious collection. Excellent Condition with Rolex box and papers dated 2020.
