Description
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 'Blue Arabic' Racing Edition in Solid 18kt Yellow Gold Three-Body Case with Tachymeter Engraved Bezel Measuring up to 400 Units Per Hour. Fitted on an extremely rare Blue Alligator leather strap with 18kt Yellow Gold Fold-Over Deployant Buckle. 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 black with applied gold Arabic numeral hour index markers, gold baton hands, a center chronograph hand, and an outer minute scale. The three subsidiary dials have distinctive gold rims. There is a small seconds subsidiary dial at 9 o'clock, and 12-hour and 30-minute registers respectively at 9 and 3 o'clock. The chronograph is accurate to within 1/8 second, with stop-seconds for precise time setting. This is a superlative chronometer with the COSC certificate from the Control Official 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.

The automatic self-winding Rolex caliber 4030 movement is rhodium-plated, with oeil-de-perdrix embellishment. It's constructed with 31 jewels, a straight-line lever escapement, a shock absorber mechanism, and a monometallic balance adjusted to 6 positions. It includes a self-compensating free-sprung Breguet balance spring, and Microstella regulating screws. The oscillator has the patented Rolex paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, with bidirectional self-winding via the perpetual rotor that was invented by Rolex in 1931, consisting of a half-moon-shaped oscillating weight that pivots freely in both directions on its axle, utilizing the energy of the natural wrist movement.

There is no doubt that the Rolex Daytona is a good investment and If you’re interested in the luxury watch market as an investor, you’ll already be aware that Rolex models unequivocally make for sensible purchases. Most Rolex models are notable for a continuous growth in value, coupled with never-waning popularity. There’s something about these classic timepieces that just refuses to fall out of the public consciousness. For decades now, Rolex has captured the zeitgeist with each new release, while older models become more highly sought-after with each passing year.

The beauty of the Rolex Daytona is that you can be both an investor and collector at the same time: this means enjoying the history and tradition of the brand while collecting instruments that are stable enough to retain value and in-demand enough to increase in value over the years.
