The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 16520 marks a major turning point in the history of the famous chronograph from the manufacture. Introduced in 1988, it is the first Daytona equipped with an automatic movement, abandoning the manual winding of previous generations and opening a new era for the model.

Its case and dials retain the sporty DNA designed for the world of motorsport. Produced until 2000, the 16520 is now considered the last neo-vintage Daytona and one of the most sought after. At the crossroads of heritage and modernity, it perfectly embodies the rise of the Daytona to the status of a legendary chronograph.
