Cosmograph Daytona

Following the manually-wound Rolex Daytona lineup that made its debut in the early 1960s, Rolex unveiled the automatic Daytona collection in 1988. The affectionately nicknamed ‘Zenith Daytona’ watches were around for 12 years until Rolex finally introduced a collection of automatic Daytona watches powered by their first in-house chronograph movement.

The leading brand in Swiss luxury watches, Rolex enjoys an unrivalled reputation for excellence, performance and prestige. Pioneer of the wristwatch since 1905, the brand is at the origin of landmark innovations in watchmaking, including the first waterproof wristwatch - the Oyster - and the Perpetual rotor self-winding mechanism. Its watches have accompanied explorers and achievers around the world, from the top of the highest mountains to the deepest reaches of the ocean. Rolex is also actively involved in supporting the arts, sports, exploration, the spirit of enterprise through a broad palette of sponsoring activities and philanthropic programmes. An independent manufacturing company, Rolex designs, develops and produces in-house all the essential components of its watches.
