Notes:

Spotted on the wrists of some of the most important athletes in the world including Kevin Durant of the Golden State Warrior, Spanish footballer Álvaro Negredo, and the legendary Michael Jordan — arguably the greatest basketball player of the century, the Rolex platinum Daytona reference 116506 is well loved not without good reason.

The reference 116506 was introduced at the Baselworld in 2013 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona model, which is the first Daytona cased in platinum ever offered by Rolex for sale. Platinum has remarkable resistance to corrosion, even at high temperatures — perfect to sustain the physical activity of an athlete. Rolex uses 950 platinum for ref. 116506, an alloy consisting of 950‰ (thousandths) platinum meticulously made by Rolex’s in-house professional craftsmen. The beautiful ice blue dial is used exclusively on platinum models by Rolex, wondrously adorning the supreme splendor of the platinum case and bracelet.

The watch is presented in new condition. Our research shows that the present watch is fresh to the auction market, making it an even more exquisite timepiece to own.
