The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona is the ultimate expression of motorsport heritage and chronograph excellence—a timepiece that has graced the wrists of racing legends, collectors, and connoisseurs for over six decades. This SuperClone edition faithfully recreates the reference 126519LN, featuring the iconic black and white "Panda" dial configuration in a luxurious 18K white gold case. Powered by the legendary caliber 4130 movement and built to Rolex's exacting standards, this is the chronograph that defines automotive elegance and precision timing.
Introduced in 1963 and named after the legendary Daytona International Speedway, the Cosmograph Daytona was purpose-built for professional racing drivers who demanded split-second accuracy and uncompromising reliability. The tachymeter bezel allows drivers to measure average speeds up to 400 kilometers or miles per hour, while the chronograph function provides precise timing for laps and intervals. This is not merely a watch—it's a tool forged in the crucible of motorsport competition.
The black dial with white sub-dials configuration—affectionately known as the "Panda" dial—is one of the most iconic and sought-after designs in watchmaking history. The high-contrast layout ensures exceptional legibility, allowing drivers to read elapsed time at a glance even in challenging conditions. The three white sub-dials at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock create perfect symmetry, while the red "Daytona" script adds a subtle racing accent. This is the dial that launched a thousand auctions and defined chronograph aesthetics for generations.
While stainless steel Daytonas capture headlines, the 18K white gold reference 126519LN represents the collection at its most refined. White gold offers the cool, silvery appearance of steel with the weight, prestige, and intrinsic value of precious metal. Each case is crafted from solid 18K white gold (750/1000 purity), hallmarked, and finished to Rolex's exacting standards with a combination of polished and brushed surfaces. The substantial weight on the wrist—approximately 235 grams—immediately announces this as something special.
At the heart of the Daytona beats the SuperClone caliber 4130, a high-grade reproduction of Rolex's legendary manufacture chronograph movement. Introduced in 2000, the 4130 revolutionized chronograph design with its column wheel mechanism for precise start/stop/reset functions, vertical clutch for smooth chronograph hand engagement, and reduced component count for enhanced reliability. The 72-hour power reserve ensures the watch runs through an entire weekend, while the Paraflex shock absorbers protect the movement from impacts.
The black Cerachrom ceramic bezel represents a quantum leap over traditional aluminum inserts. Virtually scratchproof (9 on the Mohs scale), completely fade-resistant even under UV exposure, and impervious to corrosion, the Cerachrom bezel will look as crisp decades from now as it does today. The tachymeter scale is engraved and then filled with platinum using a proprietary PVD process, ensuring the numerals remain legible for life. This is engineering that thinks in generations, not years.
The Daytona's chronograph function is operated via two screw-down pushers at 2 and 4 o'clock. The upper pusher starts and stops the chronograph, while the lower pusher resets it to zero. The central chronograph seconds hand sweeps smoothly around the dial, while the 30-minute counter at 3 o'clock and 12-hour counter at 6 o'clock track elapsed time up to 12 hours. The running seconds sub-dial at 9 o'clock indicates the watch is functioning. Thanks to the Triplock crown and screw-down pushers, the Daytona maintains 100-meter water resistance even during chronograph operation.
The solid 18K white gold Oyster bracelet features three-piece links with a combination of polished center links and brushed outer links, creating visual interest and comfortable articulation. The Oysterlock folding safety clasp prevents accidental opening, while the Easylink rapid extension system allows you to easily increase the bracelet length by approximately 5mm for comfort throughout the day. The bracelet alone weighs over 150 grams—a testament to the solid precious metal construction.
At 40mm, the Daytona is perfectly proportioned for modern wrists—large enough to command presence, compact enough for dress shirt cuffs. The relatively short lug-to-lug measurement of 47mm ensures it wears comfortably even on smaller wrists. While undeniably substantial due to the white gold construction, the weight feels reassuring rather than cumbersome. The black and white dial works equally well with business attire, casual wear, or racing leathers, making this one of the most versatile luxury chronographs ever created.
The Daytona has achieved legendary status in the collector community, with vintage examples commanding astronomical prices at auction. The reference 126519LN represents the current generation of this iconic chronograph, featuring the latest caliber 4130 movement, Cerachrom bezel technology, and refined case proportions. The Panda dial configuration is particularly sought-after, combining timeless aesthetics with exceptional legibility. This SuperClone offers access to this horological icon at a fraction of the genuine price while maintaining faithful accuracy to the original.
Perfect for serious collectors, motorsport enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates chronograph excellence and automotive heritage. This SuperClone offers the Daytona's legendary design, solid white gold construction, and Swiss-grade caliber 4130 movement without the six-figure investment or multi-year waiting lists. Whether you're a racing driver requiring precision timing, a collector building a rotation of iconic chronographs, or an enthusiast who values Rolex's uncompromising approach to watchmaking, the Daytona delivers.
Every Daytona SuperClone undergoes comprehensive quality control before dispatch. We regulate the caliber 4130 movement to Superlative Chronometer standards (-2/+2 seconds per day), test the chronograph function extensively to ensure smooth operation of the column wheel and vertical clutch mechanisms, verify 100-meter water resistance with screw-down pushers engaged, and inspect the white gold case, Cerachrom bezel, and Oyster bracelet for flawless finishing. Your watch arrives ready to time laps or board meetings with equal precision, backed by our commitment to excellence.
The 18K white gold case and bracelet can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. The Cerachrom bezel is virtually scratchproof and requires no special care. We recommend having the movement serviced every 3-5 years to maintain optimal chronograph performance and accuracy. The screw-down pushers should always be fully screwed down before any water exposure. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields or extreme shocks, though the Paraflex shock absorbers provide excellent protection.
What separates the Daytona from other chronographs? It's the combination of motorsport pedigree, manufacture movement, precious metal construction, and design that has remained fundamentally unchanged for decades because it was perfect from the start. The Daytona doesn't chase trends—it defines them. From Paul Newman's legendary 6239 to today's ceramic-bezeled references, the Daytona represents chronograph watchmaking at its absolute pinnacle. This SuperClone honors that legacy with faithful reproduction of every technical and aesthetic detail.
