1963 saw the creation of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona, a watch dedicated to racing drivers and offering ultimate wearer comfort, robustness and visibility. Named after the legendary Florida beach and race track, the home of some of the world’s most famous motorsport speed records including Sir Malcolm Campbell’s Bluebird record of 1935, the watch is almost as legendary itself. Today it is presented to every winner of the Le Mans and Rolex 24 At Daytona races, a true watch of champions.
