Notes

The patina on Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 116520, occurred on the originally white dial only and only within serials P, K and Y produced from 2000 until 2002. This watch is a beautiful and extremely rare example that fits the specifications mentioned previously.
The present Daytona is a serial P therefore manufactured around 2000 fitting an exceptional cream dial that was originally white. This configuration is extremely desirable for collectors and Rolex lovers that are deeply passionate about “tropical dial”.
This present example comes in NOS condition with full stickers on dial and bracelet and accompanied by the original Rolex punched warranty.
