In celebration of the 100th anniversary of Le Mans, Rolex announced a very special Daytona. Taking everything new that the brand announced at Watches & Wonders (new symmetrical case, metal-edged bezel, re-configured dial layout, and new movement), this latest iteration of the Daytona is just…extra in all the right ways. The 24 Hours of Le Mans is the most storied and prestigious endurance race on the planet. The Rolex Daytona is the most famous mechanical chronograph on that same planet, so named for a different 24-hour endurance race (I'll let you guess), who's origins point back to the Le Mans. This timepiece has a bright 'Reverse Panda' black dial with a radial cut pattern. The unnumbered indices and the hour, minute, and second hands have an 18-karat white gold setting. While the second hand is shaped like an arrow, a black lacquer line runs through the hour and minute hands (except for the hands on the subdials). For accurate readability in unfavorable light conditions, Chromalight, which glows blue in the dark, covers the indices and the hands. Contrasting with the black dial are the two subdials and the small seconds, colored in white. The counters allow the wearer to measure time intervals and determine average speeds. Here, too, the design strongly references Rolex connection to car racing and the history of the Daytona models, as they were originally developed and adapted to the needs of racing drivers. The Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona dial features a 30-minute counter at three o’clock. At the position above 6 o’clock, the small seconds are displayed. By means of a stop-second time can be set precisely. However, this model’s novelty lies in its 24-hour counter at 9 o’clock. Instead of the usual 12 hours, the chronograph measures the hours – in accordance with the 24-hour race at Le Mans – in a 24-hour format. A perpetual rotor drives the automatic movement, which oscillates at a frequency of 4 Hz. For greater durability of the movement and more accurate timekeeping, the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona features several Rolex patented elements. The proprietary Chronergy escapement, for example, is made of a nickel-phosphorus alloy and thus has a high energetic efficiency. Furthermore, a patented Paraflex anti-shock system increases the shock resistance of the movement by holding the oscillator. The blue Parachrom hairspring, made of a paramagnetic alloy, also contributes to the resistance to shocks and high-temperature fluctuations. Furthermore, it has a Rolex end curve that guarantees a regular rate in all positions. In order to establish a drive for the chronograph’s 24-hour hand at half the rotation speed of the gear train, an additional reduction system was added. The epicycloidal gear consists of seven components and is patented. In addition, the number of components was reduced for greater reliability of the chronograph. The transparent caseback allows a closer look at the individual components of the calibre 4132. On the bridges, there are finishes in the form of the Rolex Côtes de Genève. As a variation of the traditional Côtes de Genève pattern, it features a delicate polished line between the individual stripes. Besides the polished decorations, golden elements add to the aesthetics of this Daytona edition: the open-worked oscillating weight is made of 18-carat yellow gold with an optimised ball bearing, and the four fine-adjusting Microstella-nuts are also gold. |
