Rolex Daytona 116518 Mother of Pearl & Diamonds; 18ct. Yellow Gold Watch

Description

Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ‘Mother of Pearl & Diamonds’ 18k Yellow Gold with Ref. M116518-0079. Some Rolex Daytonas are beloved. Others are truly exceptional. This Rolex Cosmograph Daytona in 18 karat yellow gold is undoubtedly among the most exclusive versions ever produced by Rolex. The combination of a rare Mother of Pearl dial, diamond hour markers, and the now 'discontinued' version makes this watch a unique collector's item in a complete full set from 2010.

This piece with reference number 116518 (fully M116518-0079) radiates pure luxury. The natural mother of pearl dial has a unique sheen that makes each piece one of a kind. Depending on the light, the color subtly changes, while the diamond hour markers add a refined and exclusive touch. This specific dial is no longer available from Rolex, making complete and fully original pieces increasingly rare.

An especially appealing detail is that the watch has remained completely unrhodium plated. This has beautifully preserved its original case shapes, sharp facets, and authentic finish, something that is increasingly appreciated. We can also see some slight signs of wear, but rest assured, the condition is very good.

Inside is the legendary Rolex Calibre 4130 automatic manufacture chronograph movement. This fully in-house developed chronograph movement is renowned worldwide for its reliability, efficiency, and exceptional precision. Thanks to its thoughtful construction, the Calibre 4130 is considered one of the best automatic chronograph movements ever built.

The movement has been thoroughly tested, runs excellently, and keeps time very precisely.

This Daytona is a perfect combination of sportiness and luxury. The classic Daytona has been one of the most sought-after Rolex models for years. The rare mother of pearl dial with diamonds elevates this version to an even more exclusive level.

As this model is designed for leather/rubber straps, and each strap gives a completely different feel/look, several beautiful strap options are included; The original Rolex croco leather strap for a classic/elegant look, a white leather strap for more sportiness/summer vibes, and a high-quality brown rubber strap for a universal and very comfortable wear experience. The leather and rubber straps are compatible with the included 18ct. Rolex folding clasp. All straps fit wrists up to approximately 20cm.

The watch from 2010 is delivered as an overcomplete full set/collectors set with nice extras, additional straps, accessories, Rolex register printout ('born-dial'), and our warranty report with 1 year warranty. Of course, it has been fully checked and is ready to be worn or added to a high-quality collection.

As always, this is a unique pre-owned piece. Only one available.
