Yellow Gold Daytona

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Ref. 116518 in 18-karat yellow gold impresses with a particularly successful color combination of a yellow gold case, white dial, and new brown Rolex crocodile leather strap.

The case is in very good overall condition, with only minor, superficial signs of wear. Upon close inspection, minimal pressure marks are visible on the bezel, and there are also light scratches on the underside of the lugs. There are no deeper scratches or dents. The original substance is excellently preserved overall, and the case has most likely never been polished. The dial and hands are in excellent condition.

The combination with the new brown Rolex crocodile leather strap is particularly beautiful, harmonizing perfectly with the yellow gold and white dial. The original Rolex clasp bears the matching EO closure code.

The watch comes from a German delivery (LC100) from 2009 and was purchased from Juwelier Dürrkopp in Ingolstadt. The scope of delivery includes the large Rolex precious metal box, hang tag, seal, bezel protector, and booklet.
