    Hi all,

    For sale is my Rolex Daytona in Gold, Model # 116518LN. Yellow gold with black dial and black ceramic bezel. It comes complete AS NEW from Rolex, with the box, warranty card, manual, inner pillows, etc. I've been on the fence with this one as I do like it. The watch is unworn. It has a few light handling marks. I bought it on a whim when I bought the Submariner I sold here recently. The warranty/original purchase date was in 2022. Some refer to this dial as the new "Newman" dial. It's a more rare piece and I particularly liked the red second hand and the contrast with the black dial.

    Asking $39,750 which I think is a great deal (plus your shipping label insured for full amount - or you can pick it up in the local Northern NJ area). This is far LESS than what I paid only a few months ago.

    Please PM with any questions or interest.

    Nice Piece. I used to have an all gold Daytona with a gold band. I wonder what this would look like with that band--though I realize it would have to be aftermarket. Not wild about rubber.

    Agree, the rubber is a modern take on the classic Rolex. It's especially great in summer months.

    its “Rolex Rubber” not to be confused with every day rubber that sells for 1/90th of the price. ;)

    Rolex actually places a strip of metal in the Oysterflex to make it more comfortable and form fitting.

    Back on the market, buyer flaked. Open to reasonable offers.

    I just wish the Daytonas were 42 /44 mm
    They look small on me.

    That is the perfect watch to me. Absolute perfection.

    I just can't justify it for myself. One day if they ever come down.... .maybe I'll get rid of my Daytona and upgrade to that. I love this watch

    Unfortunately the Daytona was never made in 42mm.

    You are correct! I confused the new Daytona with the new Yacht-Master 11 w/ the Daytona.

    Hopefully it's better than your offer on the submariner.

    Hey guys, appreciate the many PMs with offers but I hate to see people waste their time making lower than wholesale offers. I'm not a dealer so this is not a "have to move it" type thing. The market has stabilized and if you look at chrono24 none show for less than $40k. In fact there are some guys asking as high as $47k for one. Remember this is a NEW piece with a 2022 date card. It is a unique piece and I think one of the best looking Daytona's on the market to date.

    It's priced to sell.

    Watch prices seem to be falling for a few months now. Doesn't it make sense to wait 6 to 12 months and then see where prices are at? I don't think it is likely that prices for these watches will increase during that period.

    No offense, but chrono is always inflated price wise. DavidSW, a very well known reseller, has this watch at this price point and it has been sitting. David has a ton of goodwill so an individual is unlikely to get the same price as him. Good luck.

    No offense, DavidSW has the watch listed for $1300 more than what I'm looking for.
