Rolex Platinum Daytona

$ 69,999.00

The Rolex Platinum Daytona—a legendary racing watch that's awarded to the 24 hours of Daytona and the Daytona 200 Pole winner to this very day—is also the most expensive watch ever sold ($17.8 million at an auction of Paul Newman's watch in 2017).

The stunning dial, with easy to identify pushers and protected crown, along with the tachymeter bezel are iconic. This specific aqua blue model appeared in the number 1 spot on Motorcycle's top motorsports watches of all time. "Introduced in 1963 specifically with the professional racer in mind, the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona offers the ability to precisely measure speeds up to 400 units per hour. Sleek as a land speed record contender, the Daytona’s chronograph and bezel with tachymetric scale are the ultimate in high performance and a true complement to the mechanical detail and love that goes into every race machine. This beautiful platinum, ice blue dial and brown ceramic version is a favorite."

You can read more about the fascinating history of this watch on Wikipedia or by googling a gaggle of articles (like this one) written about this celebrated timepiece.

If the luxury price tag is not your speed, then check out Henry Jay's homage (read replica) of the Daytona, which Proud & Free sells for a fraction of the cost.
