The Racers Watch

Cosmograph Daytona

The Rolex Chronograph, called Cosmograph Daytona, is the ultimate functional watch for racing and speed enthusiasts. Introduced in 1963, the Cosmograph was designed to meet the needs of professional racing drivers. It takes its name from the famous high-speed circuit Daytona Beach.

The perfect mix of steel and gold

Rolesor

The harmonious interaction of steel and gold is called Rolesor. Bezel, winding crown and center elements of the bracelet are made of 18ct yellow or everose gold. On models in Rolesor white only the bezel is in 18ct white gold and the rest in Oystersteel.

Legendary Waterproofness

Oyster Case

The Oyster case is a milestone in the history of watchmaking. Invented by Rolex in 1926, it was the world's first waterproof watch case. Bezel, caseback and winding crown are screwed watertight to the middle section. Form and function are perfectly matched - typically Rolex.

In the right time

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.

How deep is deep?

When I started wearing watches at a young age, everything was quite simple for me. If the words “Water Resistant” were written on the back cover, you had to be careful. On the other hand, if it said “30M”, everything was fine. Off to the beach with it and have fun. I wore those watches in the sea for years without a care in the world - for swimming, showering and bathing anyway.
