Black Ceramic Panda Dial Replica Daytona
The Modern Legend of the Track
Few watches embody adrenaline like the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116500LN.
With its crisp black ceramic bezel and unmistakable panda-style dial, it defines the balance between racing energy and timeless luxury.
The 2024 VS Factory 4131 edition captures every aesthetic nuance — from the white lacquer subdials to the engraved tachymeter that gleams with precision under light. The polished case flows seamlessly into the Oyster bracelet, echoing the sharp transitions and aerodynamic lines of a Formula 1 machine.
This isn’t imitation — it’s a mirror crafted with purpose.
