Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116500LN | WatchReviewBlog.com

Taking a close up look and reviewing the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116500LN with a ceramic bezel and stainless steel case and bracelet. This is a watch I've personally wanted for many years and just this summer I was lucky enough to acquire it from a local Rolex Authorized dealer in Toronto, it is now part of my permanent collection.

The Daytona 116500 is one of if not the most sought after watch models in the world, and that's for good reason which I explain in the video. This is a do it all heirloom piece that looks just as good with formal wear as it does in everyday casual wear. Please enjoy this video which has been filmed in 4K!

It’s now the only monoblock ceramic daytona ever ….

The only asymmetric case Daytona - to optically balance the mass of the pushers the lug is smaller on this side

Hold on to it if you have one - this will be a future icon in the Daytona lineup!

I really like the way this video was shot! Congrats on the watch, that is my favorite!

I love this video - I too am blessed with an AD purchased 116500ln (white dial for me) but I also love the black!! It’s my favorite watch ever and always will be for all the incredible reasons you so perfectly said in this review but you’ve got one MAJOR advantage for this watch over me!

It fits you so perfectly and im JEALOUS of that! I have a 7.5 inch wrist and so I actually wear Rolex watches straight out the box how they come ! No sizing necessary for me .. anyway, it still looks great but admittedly a TOUCH small for my wrist which is my only complaint for it.. but it just looks so perfect on you, as i said JEALOUS!!

Congrats on the acquisition, wear it in good health, I just got the white one and I think I also want to add the black one to the collection 😍😍😍

I just bought this watch in Singapore’s second hand store yesterday. I have SS, two tone and solid gold daytona but this is first time to get black dial one. I think this color fits evry type of clothes.

I purchased the same black Rolex Daytona. I thought I was buying a preowned Rolex. Unfortunately PayPal sent me a message. The company that I was purchasing the watch from was a fake Rolex. Also, there was two digits missing from the tracking number I couldn’t track the watch two weeks went by PayPal got the other two digits the third week on a Friday. I got my watch. It was Wrapped in plastic in a Rolex box with all the papers . A watch dealer seen the watch on my arm and said to me you paid a pretty penny for that watch 27, 000. I decided to tell him after he looked at it that it was fake. He said no way took it in the back, put it on the right microscope and said this was a super clone. Unfortunately, for the people that sold me the watch PayPal did not pay them. 🤣 also PayPal gave me my money back also told me to keep the watch.😂🤣😂

That's one magnificently polished Daytona that simply shouts luxury. Patek Philippe ...who is that? Congrats; Good review! 😎

[leekindell]

just brought mine 3 weeks ago..went black face not keen on the white...wears nicer than any of my other Rolexs...and sparkles in the light, the black dial looks so good against the high shine bracelet and dials. you dont get this contrast on the white one

Great video. What’s the name of the song playing in the background?

Congratulations! I have wanted a Daytona for a long time and have pretty much given up on getting one. I bought my Submariner new and so, I would like a new all stainless steel Daytona also but the timing has to be...perfect. I have considered the 2nd hand market but the prices have gotten too rich for my taste.

[DamianMathew]

I love this watch, don’t get me wrong, but a sugess chrono almost ticks all the same boxes for 300$, that you mention. I don’t think a daytona can stand out on a spec sheet and justify the price, it’s more the emotion behind it. But I enjoyed the video alot, nice close ups of this beautiful watch.

Fellow Canuck from the sounds of it .. great video and well produced! Congrats on picking up a 116500. I’m getting ready to buy it on the secondary market, I’m tired of waiting lol.. that or I’ll ask for an Everose Daytona on oyster flex. 😂

[jameswestconsultant]

Just picked up the new ref. 126500 replacing this model and promptly traded it away for a Dec 23’ 116500 as it’s simply less busy and very much perfect ☝🏻😉

Great review and congrats the Daytona is my Grail as well. Out of curiosity how long did it take to get and did you have to buy lots of jewelry or watches?

[jeffreywee]

The stainless steel Daytona is the best looking among all Daytona models lines up, That is why Paul Newman Daytona auction for so many millions dollars

[luxurytemplesceneluxtempsc]

Why is the white gold Daytona Oyster white or yellow gold so hard to find???

[TheFuqYouuMean]

Daytona uses 4130 for chronographic functionality

Vader > Panda had mine for 6 years, had the option to get white instead... black >
