Rolex Daytona – 116520 black dial 2011 perfect condition

Oystersteel, this reference combines the brand’s legendary motorsport heritage with the robust engineering and timeless design that made the Daytona a grail watch for collectors worldwide.

Its 40 mm Oyster case is paired with a fixed stainless steel bezel engraved with a tachymeter scale, designed for measuring average speeds over distance. The black dial with contrasting silver-ringed chronograph subdials ensures excellent legibility while maintaining the clean, sporty aesthetic that defines the Daytona line. 

At the heart of the watch is the Rolex in-house Calibre 4130, an automatic chronograph movement celebrated for its reliability, precision, and approximately 72-hour power reserve. Introduced with the 116520 generation, this movement marked a major milestone for the Daytona as the first fully in-house chronograph calibre from Rolex. 

This particular example dates from 2012 and remains in perfect, unpolished condition, preserving the sharp factory lines of the case and bracelet — a detail highly appreciated by collectors. The watch is offered as a complete full set, including the original box, warranty card, and accompanying accessories.

A true modern classic and the final stainless steel Daytona generation before the ceramic-bezel era, the 116520 continues to be one of the most desirable sports Rolex references.
