Rolex Daytona 116519

The 2004 Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116519 is a distinguished timepiece that combines Rolex’s renowned precision with the elegance of 18K white gold. This model marked a significant evolution in the Daytona lineage, introducing a precious metal case with a leather strap, diverging from the traditional steel bracelet configuration.

Crafted from 18K white gold, the 40mm case exudes a sophisticated sheen without the overt flashiness of yellow gold. The tachymeter scale is engraved on the polished bezel, allowing for the measurement of average speeds up to 400 units per hour. The case features hooded lugs, which seamlessly integrate with the leather strap, enhancing the watch’s sleek profile.

Beneath the sapphire crystal lies a black dial adorned with white subdials at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions. The applied white gold hour markers and hands are coated with luminous material, ensuring legibility in various lighting conditions. The chronograph function is powered by the Rolex Caliber 4130 movement, an automatic chronograph movement developed and manufactured by Rolex. This movement boasts a 72-hour power reserve and is known for its robustness and reliability.

The Daytona 116519 is fitted with a black leather strap, secured by an 18K white gold folding clasp. This combination offers both comfort and a refined aesthetic, making it suitable for both formal and casual occasions. The watch is water-resistant to 100 meters, adhering to Rolex’s stringent standards for durability.
