The Rolex Daytona was introduced in 1963 and quickly found a devoted following with race car drivers and racing enthusiasts alike due to the Daytona's sterling feature set: a Rolex COSC-certified chronometer movement, a chronograph mechanism with tachymeter scale that allows average speed and lap times to be calculated, and legendary Rolex build quality and durability.
In the 1980s the Italian collector market began to recognize the watch previously admired mostly by the true racing cognoscenti like actor Paul Newman who wore several different Daytonas as a signature watch and the rest of the world soon followed.
Today's Daytona is better than ever and features an in-house Rolex made movement and the superb Oyster case for an unbeatable combination: the finest sport chronograph in the world. There are often waiting lists for this coveted model, and Stein Diamonds has them in stock in a stunning array of options: Rolex Daytona stainless steel, Rolex Daytona two-tone steel and Rolex Daytona 18K gold and more, with a host of different dials to choose from.
