Rolex 116505 Meteorite Dial in UAE

Rolex 116505 Meteorite Dial in 18k Everose Gold

The Rolex 116505 Daytona Meteorite stands apart for one defining reason: its dial. Cut from genuine meteorite sourced from an ancient asteroid, each dial reveals natural crystalline patterns formed over millions of years. No two pieces are identical. Set within a 40mm Oyster case crafted from solid 18 ct Everose gold, the watch balances rarity with structural strength. Black chronograph sub-dials provide contrast against the metallic texture of the meteorite surface, ensuring clarity while preserving the bold identity of the Daytona. The fixed Everose gold bezel, engraved with a tachymetric scale, reinforces its role as a precision chronograph rooted in motorsport timing.

Beneath the case, the Rolex Caliber 4130 powers the watch with a 72-hour power reserve and a refined chronograph mechanism engineered for efficiency and durability. Designed with fewer components than traditional chronographs, the movement enhances reliability without compromising performance. Screw-down pushers and the Triplock crown contribute to water resistance up to 100 meters. Paired with a solid Everose gold Oyster bracelet secured by an Oysterlock clasp and Easylink extension system, the 116505 Meteorite delivers substantial wrist presence while maintaining everyday practicality.

A Rare Daytona with Natural Cosmic Detail

Among modern Daytona references, the meteorite dial versions hold a distinctive position. Unlike standard lacquer or sunburst finishes, meteorite dials display naturally occurring Widmanstätten patterns, visible only after precise cutting and treatment. This organic structure ensures that each watch carries its own visual signature.

Compared to other Everose gold Daytonas, the meteorite edition introduces an additional layer of rarity while maintaining the same mechanical foundation and case architecture. It combines precious metal construction with a dial material that cannot be replicated artificially. For collectors seeking a Daytona that offers both mechanical credibility and uncommon material character, the 116505 Meteorite represents one of the most distinctive choices within the Everose lineup.
