One of the most exciting releases of Baselworld 2016, the Daytona Cosmograph ref. 116500 features an updated Cerachrom ceramic tachymeter bezel on top of its 40 mm stainless steel Oyster case, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and screw-down Triplock winding crown. Originally designed as a tool watch for professional automotive racers, the Daytona is equipped with the extremely precise Caliber 4130 self-winding movement, which features a blue Parachrom hairspring and a 72-hour power reserve. This particular example is fitted with a black dial to complement its black Cerachrom bezel. Although this reference first debuted several years ago, it remains one of the most sought-after watches in the world today, with waitlists at authorized retailers several years in length.
