Mint and unused looking Rolex Daytona model reference 11523. The new replacement cost is £8,870 (US $14,250). This is a steel and gold watch and has the automatic Zenith El Primero movement. It is a U serial watch which dates to 1999, purchased form Authorised Rolex dealers at Schipol Airport, Amsterdam. The steel and gold offers a more realistically priced version to the steel model, yet retains all of the desirability and charm of the ultimate Rolex sports model, with the added charisma of gold and steel. Since it has the Zenith movement, the value of the watch is greater than the Rolex movement watch due to the rarity of the Zenith movement in the Daytona. The Daytona was made with the Zenith movement for just a few years, and the Zenith version was less available than the current Daytona. There was the notorious seven year waiting list for the steel models. The Daytona is one of the worlds most sought after wristwatch.  This is due to the fact that it carries on a long line of Rolex motor sport tradition with the Daytona, and the watch has had an association with sports and racing since the 1950’s.  It has also been seen worn by many film stars and celebrity racing drivers.  In addition the watch sports rugged good looks and is simply an stunning looking wristwatch with a sporty look and feel as well as having has a practical side to it with its twelve hour chronograph and tachometric bezel.  As well as this, Rolex manufacture so few of the Daytona’s that they are very rare and difficult to get hold of.  Typically there is a minimum of 5 to 7 year waiting list. Pre 2000 they had the Zenith el Primero movement, post 2000 they had the Rolex calibre movement. The Daytona is one of the ultimate status symbols, and if you have the money to spare then why not.  The watch naturally has a scratch resistant sapphire crystal, and has a screw down crown and screw down pushers making it a water proof watch to add to the sportyness of it.  It is a watch for all occasions, designed to take the knocks, but on such a watch that seems a waste – it needs to be treasured.  It comes with boxes, chronometer certificate and Oyster booklet.  Width is 40 mm excluding crown, 43 mm including crown and 47 mm lug to lug and thickness is 14mm.
