About this Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 40 Yellow Gold

Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 40mm Yellow Gold 1998, available to buy now. The Daytona is the hardest Rolex to buy at retail. Waiting lists at authorised dealers run years, which is the entire reason the secondary market prices it where it does.

The case measures 40mm in yellow gold. The movement is automatic, wound by the motion of the wrist. It is factory or aftermarket gem-set; the dial and bezel stones are described in the listing photography.

A chronograph adds stopwatch timing. Production dates to 1998. The Rolex Daytona 16528 is the inaugural automatic yellow gold Daytona, driven by the Zenith‑derived Calibre 4030. It represents the bridge between vintage Daytona aesthetics and Rolex’s modern chronograph engineering, with its collectibility hinging on dial configuration, production period, and overall originality. Rolex does not publish production figures, does not discount, and allocates its steel sport models years behind demand. That structure is most of why the secondary market prices the way it does.

Condition is stated as Pre-owned. It is accompanied by Rolex box and papers.
