The Rolex Daytona 116506 (2020) is a highly coveted, iconic chronograph that epitomizes precision, performance, and luxury. Part of Rolex’s renowned Cosmograph Daytona collection, the 116506 model is distinguished by its bold yet elegant design, cutting-edge mechanics, and the prestigious reputation of the brand. Here’s a detailed description of its key features:
The Rolex Daytona 116506 features a 40mm platinum case, an exceptional material choice that sets it apart from other models in the Daytona range. Platinum, known for its rarity and timeless appeal, gives this timepiece a cool, silvery tone, adding a touch of understated luxury. The case is polished to perfection, creating a mirror-like finish that enhances the watch’s presence on the wrist.
The rotatable bezel is made from cerachrom (ceramic) and features a tachymeter scale, designed for measuring speed or distance over time. The bezel’s contrast with the polished platinum case, along with its brushed surface, offers a modern and durable touch while maintaining the watch’s refined look.
The pushers and crown are also crafted in platinum, ensuring the watch exudes a harmonious and cohesive design. The case has the signature screw-down case back, providing excellent water resistance, and ensuring that the watch can withstand harsh conditions.
The dial of the Daytona 116506 is one of the most striking aspects of the watch. It features a deep ice blue color, which is a distinctive design choice exclusive to Rolex’s platinum models. This color, often described as “Rolex blue,” is both elegant and modern, offering a fresh, contemporary take on the classic Daytona aesthetic.
The chronograph sub-dials are arranged in the classic layout — with a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, a 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock, and a running seconds sub-dial at 9 o’clock. The sub-dials are subtly recessed and are a matching silver tone, creating a harmonious balance with the ice blue dial. The central hour, minute, and chronograph hands are made of platinum and are coated with a luminescent material for visibility in low-light conditions.
A small but important feature is the date window at 4:30, a practical addition to the watch that doesn’t detract from its clean, legible design. The Rolex signature at 12 o’clock and the Cosmograph Daytona text further elevate the model’s prestige.
At the heart of the Rolex Daytona 116506 is the Rolex Caliber 4130 automatic chronograph movement, which is renowned for its precision, reliability, and robustness. This self-winding mechanical movement is equipped with a column-wheel chronograph system, an advanced design that provides smooth, flawless operation of the chronograph functions. The Caliber 4130 is a certified Swiss chronometer and features an approximate power reserve of 72 hours, meaning the watch will continue to run for three full days without needing to be wound.
The movement is equipped with parachrom hairspring technology, offering excellent resistance to shocks and magnetic fields, making it highly durable. The movement is visible through the transparent case back, allowing enthusiasts to admire the intricacy and finishing of Rolex’s in-house craftsmanship.
The Rolex Daytona 116506 comes with the iconic Oyster bracelet, made from platinum to match the case. The bracelet features three solid links with a flat, polished finish, providing a sleek, stylish appearance. It is fitted with the Oysterlock clasp, a folding safety clasp designed to prevent accidental opening, ensuring that the watch stays securely on the wrist.
The easy-link extension system allows for small adjustments to the bracelet length, ensuring a comfortable fit throughout the day, even as wrist size may fluctuate slightly due to temperature or activity.
As with all Rolex models, the Daytona 116506 offers excellent water resistance, rated to 100 meters (10 bar). While the Daytona is primarily designed for speed and racing enthusiasts, this water resistance makes it versatile enough to be worn in various environments, including swimming and light recreational diving.
The Rolex Daytona 116506 (2020) is a perfect embodiment of luxury, sportiness, and technical innovation. Its 40mm platinum case, paired with the exclusive ice blue dial and ceramic tachymeter bezel, creates a highly distinctive and modern look. Powered by the Caliber 4130 movement, it offers exceptional accuracy and durability, making it as functional as it is stylish.
This timepiece’s seamless combination of practicality and elegance has made it a favorite among watch collectors, race car enthusiasts, and connoisseurs of fine horology. Whether worn as an everyday luxury piece or as a statement of precision in the world of motorsports, the Daytona 116506 is a true masterpiece from Rolex — a watch that exemplifies the brand’s dedication to excellence, performance, and timeless design.
