Rolex 116503 Daytona White Dial in UAE

Rolex 116503 Daytona White with Yellow Gold Bezel

The Rolex 116503 Daytona White brings together the clarity of a white dial with the depth of yellow gold, creating a chronograph that feels both athletic and refined. Built in Yellow Rolesor, Rolex’s combination of Oystersteel and 18k yellow gold, the 40mm Oyster case offers durability while introducing the warmth of precious metal. The white dial is finished with yellow gold sub-dials and applied markers, delivering strong contrast and easy readability. Framing the dial is a fixed 18k yellow gold bezel engraved with a tachymetric scale, reinforcing the Daytona’s racing function and precise timing capability.

Inside, the watch is powered by the Rolex Caliber 4130, a manufacture self-winding chronograph movement recognized for its efficiency and reliability. With a 72-hour power reserve and a simplified chronograph construction, it ensures consistent performance over extended wear. Screw-down pushers and a Triplock crown support water resistance up to 100 meters, while the two-tone Oyster bracelet, secured with an Oysterlock clasp and Easylink extension system, provides a stable and comfortable fit. This reference maintains the technical foundation of the Daytona line while offering a brighter, more versatile aesthetic.
