Rolex celebrates 100 years of speed with a special Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona
Every year for the past 100 years, motorsport fans flock to the France Circuit de la Sarthe, along the outskirts of Le Mans, France, for the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans. The legendary race was founded in 1923 and is currently the world?s oldest active endurance racing event that saw Ferrari AF Corse winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans Centenary trophy this past weekend. In honour of the 100th year of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Rolex unveiled a special edition of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona as a fitting tribute to the centenary showcase.
An emblem of speed and the embodiment of the racing spirit, the Cosmograph Daytona needs no further introduction. It debuted on the asphalts in 1963 and was designed with a tachymeter bezel and high-performance chronograph to meet the needs of professional race drivers. While the Cosmograph Daytona was born for the races 60 years ago, it has since transcended race circuits and cemented its status as an icon in the world of horology.
After unveiling a revamped lineup of the Cosmograph Daytona at Watches & Wonders Geneva this year, slight tweaks to this special edition set...
