The Rolex Daytona is a chronograph watch that was released in 1963 to assist race drivers in calculating their lap time and speed. Over the decades, the Rolex Daytona has been refined, and today, the Daytona is one of the most sought-after models that Rolex offers. Rolex makes the Daytona in a variety of materials and colours and this particular model.
This watch has a rare and fantastic sodalite dial, but what is sodalite? Sodalite is a mineral often used in jewellery, known for its vibrant blue colour and being very fragile to work with. The sodalite is nice, but it’s even better when it's complimented by 8 of Rolex’s perfectly cut diamonds. If you think the dial is outstanding, wait until you see the white gold case and the dark blue alligator strap.
This timepiece is an amazing collector's watch. The production for these pieces ran from 1997 to early 2001. With such a short run, there's no doubt that this will make a good investment and an even better watch. Sold with a warranty and a watch registry certificate. You can’t go wrong with this sodalite Daytona.

★★★★★DaveI was nervous about buying a Rolex as it would be easy for a newcomer to be taken for a ride. Dealing with Luke at LBJ Watches took all the worry away. Although I’m sure he is a busy guy he took all the time out I needed to explain options and what would be the best watch for me. If you are a newcomer or a frequent buyer I’m sure you’ll be impressed by Luke’s attitude to customer service - so knowledgeable and helpful.
