Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 40MM Stainless Steel Black Dial Ref. 116520 Boxed Circa 2005

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 116520 is one of the most significant references within the Daytona lineage, marking the introduction of Rolex’s in-house Calibre 4130 automatic chronograph movement. Produced between 2000 and 2016, the 116520 remains a key model in the evolution of the Cosmograph Daytona collection.This circa 2005 example features a 40mm stainless steel Oyster case paired with a matching Oyster bracelet. The black dial is complemented by contrasting chronograph registers, luminous baton hour markers, and a stainless steel tachymeter bezel, creating the clean and functional aesthetic that defines the Daytona.Designed with motorsport timing in mind, the engraved tachymeter scale allows the measurement of average speeds over a fixed distance, while the screw-down chronograph pushers and Triplock crown help maintain the watch’s robust construction and water resistance.Powering the watch is the Rolex Calibre 4130 automatic chronograph movement. Developed and manufactured by Rolex, the movement provides hours, minutes, small seconds, and chronograph functions while offering an approximate power reserve of 72 hours.Supplied with its original Rolex box and dating to circa 2005, this example represents a classic stainless steel Daytona configuration from the pre-ceramic generation.
