Rolex Cosmograph Daytona – Black Dial | Oystersteel | Ceramic Bezel
Reference: 116500LN | 2017 Model | Full Set
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116500LN with the striking black dial is one of the most iconic modern chronographs in the Rolex collection. Introduced in 2016 as the first stainless steel Daytona to feature a Cerachrom ceramic bezel, the 116500LN has become one of the most desirable and collectible sports watches ever produced. This 2017 full set example offers an opportunity to own one of the earliest years of this celebrated reference.
Crafted from highly durable Oystersteel, the 40 mm Oyster case delivers exceptional robustness while maintaining the balanced proportions that have made the Daytona a legend. The elegant black dial is complemented by contrasting silver chronograph sub-dials, creating a clean and sporty aesthetic with outstanding legibility. Applied Chromalight hour markers and hands ensure excellent visibility in all lighting conditions.
Surrounding the dial is Rolex’s signature black Cerachrom ceramic bezel, engraved with a tachymetric scale for measuring average speeds. Highly resistant to scratches, corrosion, and UV fading, the Cerachrom bezel enhances both durability and the Daytona’s unmistakable contemporary appearance.
At the heart of the watch is the renowned Rolex Calibre 4130, an in-house automatic chronograph movement celebrated for its reliability, precision, and efficient architecture. Featuring a vertical clutch and column wheel mechanism, the movement delivers smooth chronograph operation while offering approximately 72 hours of power reserve and Rolex’s Superlative Chronometer certification.
Completing the watch is the classic Oyster bracelet, fitted with an Oysterlock safety clasp and Easylink comfort extension, providing exceptional comfort and security for everyday wear.
Presented as a complete 2017 full set, including the original Rolex box, warranty card, manuals, and accessories, this Daytona 116500LN Black Dial remains one of the most sought-after stainless steel Rolex references, equally suited for daily wear or long-term collection.
