Rolex Ref. 116599RBOW
Manufacturer: Rolex Year: 2012 Reference No: 116599RBOW Movement No: C 0659131 Case No: 360Z0653 Model Name: Cosmograph Daytona "Rainbow" Material: 18k white gold, diamonds and multi gemstones Calibre: Automatic, cal. 4130, 44 jewels Bracelet/Strap: 18K white gold Rolex Oyster bracelet, max length 178mm. Clasp/Buckle: 18K white gold Rolex Rolex twinlock folding deployant clasp Dimensions: 40mm. Diameter Signed: Case, dial, movement and bracelet signed Accessories: Accompanied by Rolex fitted presentation box, outer packaging, product literature, wallet and Garantie Internationale dated 26 November 2012. Catalogue Essay Rolex is an absolute master at incorporating precious materials to their horological masterpieces. While the firm started to seriously integrate diamonds and gemstones with the introduction of the Zenith Daytona, it was not until the 2000s that Rolex truly pushed the design boundaries of the Cosmograph Daytona. The present watch is aptly named "Rainbow" due to its beautiful and impressive bezel, which is set with gemstones that graduate in hue to mimic the color spectrum. The tones range from a vibrant and intense deep red, and slowly morph to mauve, orange, chartreuse, green, blue and finally deep purple. The bezel's beauty stems from the well-matched, pure and bright colored gemstones. The colors blend together seamlessly, attesting to Rolex's technical superiority and eye for color. The lugs are furthermore set with diamonds, to enhance the colorful nature of the watch. At the time of production, it was incredibly time consuming and expensive to produce the Rainbow Daytona. To find incredibly well-matched and beautiful stones is no easy feat, and it was difficult for Rolex to obtain stones that fulfilled their rigorous standards in quality. As a result, very few Rainbow Daytonas were produced and the model is now discontinued. Today, the watch has soared to new heights in popularity due to its utter rarity and impressive looks. Due to a lack of supply on the market, the Rainbow Daytona is often not available to those even willing to pay a premium. Preserved in excellent and like-new condition, the present watch is accompanied by its original guarantee. Its a rare opportunity to acquire one of the rarest and most sought-after Daytonas in modern production. Read More
