More about Daytona 116518 18K Yellow Gold / White MOP Dial

This is an 18K yellow gold Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116518. It has a leather strap and a matching 18k yellow gold deployment buckle and a scratch resistant sapphire crystal. The 40mm diameter solid three-body case, downturned lugs, solid screwed down case back, round chronograph buttons and winding crown are polished/brushed. The Rolex patented Triplock winding crown with the triple waterproofing system is protected by the crown guard. Tachymeter scale graduations are engraved on the fixed bezel measuring up to 400 units per hour. The dial is white mother-of-pearl with applied gold Arabic numeral hour index markers, square gold hour indices at the quarter-hours, gold baton hands, a center chronograph hand, and a black perimeter minute/second scale. There are three white MOP subsidiary dials with distinctive gold rims, black Arabic numerals, markers, and gold indicator hands, including a constant running small seconds register at 6 o'clock, a 12-hour chronograph totalizer at 9 o'clock, and 30-minute chronograph counter at 3 o'clock. The chronograph is accurate to within 1/8 second, with stop seconds for precise time setting. This has a Certified Official Superlative Chronometer (COSC) rating from the Control Officiel Suisse des Chronometres testing institute, indicating it has endured the 15-day examination. It's water resistant to 100 meters/330 feet, and the 12mm thick case, dial, and movement are all signed. This Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116518 has an automatic self-winding Zenith El Primero caliber 4030 (based on the Zenith caliber 400) column wheel chronograph movement. It's rhodium-plated with perlage embellishment. It's constructed with 31 jewels, a blue Parachrom hairspring, an Incabloc shock absorber device, and a straight-line lever escapement. It includes a monometallic balance that's adjusted to temperatures and 5 positions, a lateral clutch, a self-compensating free-sprung Breguet balance spring, and Microstella regulating screws. The mechanism oscillates at a frequency of 36,000 vph (5Hz). The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116518 was introduced in 2000. The legendary Cosmograph Daytona was first introduced in 1963 – a professional quality instrument for endurance racing drivers with the tachometric scale for measuring average speed on the bezel. The tri-compax cluster of triple sub dials was reminiscent of the dashboard of a Ferrari.
