The Cosmograph has had the Daytona race name on it for awhile in commemoration of the Daytona race. To commemorate the Lemans race, perhaps the word Daytona should have been replaced by the word Lemans. Otherwise it’s kind of funny to have a commemoration of Daytona which commemorates Lemans 😂

I think this is also one of the reasons why Rolex is not mentioning Le Mans anywhere on the watch. Daytona is synonymous to the model of this watch. Personally I think it's good that they are not plastering Le Mans all over the watch like other brands would

I thought the same. A watch named after a race commemorating another race…weird one for sure.

💯 means made 100% from Unobtainium

I was blessed with attending the 24 hrs in Le Mans, wearing the one and only racing piece : vintage Heuer. When you're walking on the starting grid there, you feel all the Le Mans history, also what happened in 1955 at that exact spot, the 80+ people who lost their lives... Sacred ground.

I've owned a 1976 Daytona and used it as a daily wearer as a mechanic and of course its got scratches, dings and wear but still looks beautiful today

That little 💯 would look pretty epic above the GT3 steering wheel Eric! A 'on wrist' and 'in car' review would be so sick 🏁

At least 200k for this I think, its so good Im not even going to request one!

I’d be excited if they released a modern version of a manual wide Daytona. There’s something about the visceral feeling of manual wind watches.

What makes this Time Piece so special is the centenary (91st running) celebration of the greatest race in the world, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Also the similarities to the Paul Newman Daytona.

Eric, I reached out to my top Rolex AD and owner. This model will be beyond limited and will never see the market at $100k. Unlike the platinum Daytona, this is most likely a 2023 run only in honor of the 100 year anniversary. My AD owner is getting 1 and has multiple Rolex boutiques, so it won’t hit secondary market much at all, and given less than a year production run, if it does, it will be $200k+. Cheers.

@@dannysimenauer5745 what I am saying is this will be the most limited Daytona ever made as it is a year or less and it will trade for more than 2X retail. There won’t be many flipped due to scarcity and short run time. Rolex has already informed ADs if they are getting one or not, which is extremely unusual

I spoke with my AD, I wanted one of course. I was willing to trade other 116520, and 116500s to get one. They said they got 1, it went to. Guy that dropped over $5M in one year with them. Sure beats my lifetime of purchases.😂 So, i got a 126500 white dial to add to my other Daytonas. I’m happy I guess.🤨

I agree with all your Daytona thoughts. This is a very sweet watch.

They really killed this concept makes you realize how bad AP dropped the ball with Spider-Man. The way they did this is so refined and mature. It’s really nice👌

It’s flawless!! 🔥🔥

Great job. Yes, a huge shock - the Swiss can keep secrets! But you’re reading too much into the timing (I know you’re not 100% serious) - the Daytona and Patek Tokyo drops were aligned with events’ dates. Agree - just the right amount of red and the subdials are so retro cool. So no rumors on the Daytona 100 numbers? That will be the deciding factor - if they only make a few hundred then yes prices will go to Pluto. I hope you can snag one.

Hi Eric! The ultimate Daytona! Awesome! Thanks.

😎 positive and positive with the best data..... tremendous work in editing, mixing :& software use

Looks like the Seiko 7A28-7039.

I watched the 24 hours of le mans on tv, amazing race ,with some drama, many crashes, difficult with some rain. it's seems so difficult to bring a car to the end even with the best drivers and mechanics and the best car. because anything can happen. the ferrari n° 51 won with drivers antonio giovinazzi ( ex formula one driver) , Alessandro pier Guidi , and James Calado. not only there were happy and proud to win, they got given each a rolex. I think from the hands of Tom kristensen . could not see inside but i doubt it was an op with coloured bubbles on the dial 🤣 if you can't get one from your ad ,maybe ask one of the drivers 😉 btw I'm not a fan of the daytona, think i prefer the older ones with rectangle markers but I'm a watch fan and i love that passion around it ,this nerdy red 100 km/h etc. and I certainly don't have the means .

I would have preferred steel over white gold. Still not sure about the red 100 marker. Overall it is a great looking watch.

Steel, white dial / black sub-dial, no crown guards, 38-39mm…now THAT would be perfection on this one…that said, this is pretty damm close to perfection, I agree Eric

Amazing work

Prices are wild on this Daytona ! Sick piece

You buried the lead. White Gold!! Dang, that's badass.

This was a fire drop, I want this with a WG Bezel.

Stunning piece. When will Eric get these in stock and how many? Shouldn’t tease the audience.

Fyi - my 6036 is a daily wearer and feels very sturdy.

I love it!!! But, I also hate how hard it is to acquire😂

I would love one with that white dial and black smaller dials.

These new subdials are cool as shit. No doubt about that. But the numerals on the minute subdial are STILL blocking the indices. Plus, the 1/5 second indices for the chrono seconds hand don’t work with the 1/8 second ticks of the movement 😂

For this price point you can get any rolex, I'm going for Masterpiece yellow gold 18948 with meteorite dial .

Makes the black 116500 look like a steal right now around 30k. And that’s a stainless steel daily wear piece.

Just a little tweek for me the hands on the sub dials to be RED otherwise beautiful!! Like you said in steel would have been brilliant too!!

The polished center links bug me but it's still a killer watch 🎉

we likely to have top tier Rolexes with tranparent backs and the "normals" with the classic one.

Its amazing that one day before the release the model, when they upload the daytona aniversary video, I wrote that they should release an aniversary versión, and the next day the did it...

Che Guevarra is now a watch enthusiast

Wow wow, just wow!!!

Lord have mercy! You said it buddy!!!!

It should have been steel with a closed caseback..with no other change...

I just love it

Big lemans fan . Love the Ford v Ferrari movie too . This piece is a great addition to the lineup but no one will be able to He then except grey market dealers ha

I own the watch. The booklet has a red 100 with it. So yeah booklets probably 5k

Just as those watch enthusiast think they had enough Daytona... Bam. Rolex drop another bomb shell to another must have piece. Liked your analogy about PP releasing a few pieces at the same time. Feels like an attention deficit child needing some love. Not to be left out😂

Just from this video, I could see that Eric is a great salesman. This is one of the reasons why he excelled in his chosen profession.

All the discontinued models like 119609 blue dial or green dial and metriote dials will further come down is prices !!! In furure all daytonas will come in open case back

I would like to see a small black and white checkered flag on the bezel

Are these going to be limited edition?

As an amateur racer and racing fan I approve of this Rolex.

It’s 🔥🔥🔥

Imagine the red lettering on the dial saying "Le Mans" instead of Daytona. People would go nuts.

Eric can wear glasses indoors ERIC IS THE MAN . None are the MAN but ERIC and shall REMOVE glasses indoors 😊

Hopefully ADs will have a quiz to make sure only racers get theses.

Eric, I am curious. What is your favorite Rolex model no matter what the color dial or color of gold just the model alone

🔥🔥🔥🔥

I drove my 911 from England to France to Le Mans which was epic the race , but the Rolex Exhibition they built on the track which was the history of the Daytona and they had all the Daytonas in glass boxes which included tow Paul newmans one with a white dial and one with a black dial and to see them for real was amazing and anyone could go in and see the exhibition and I walked around proudly with my Rolex on

I want one!! This is THE piece to collect. It will be the Paul Newman of the new modern Rolex!!!

In the UK the biggest AD in the country is anticipating to get just one for the whole company this year. They are not taking registrations of interest from anyone... Who knows, it might change later. Let's hope so.

Any watch maker that has had a connection with Le Mans will probably issue a 100 anniversary edition. Tag Heuer comes to mind. A French color way would be nice.

Looks like a tudor now😂i don't like it much. I rather have the one on your wrist..now thats a beauty 👌🏼

Beautiful

This is the greatest release from rolex in my lifetime….will never have one unless winning the lottery is in my future and probably will never see one in the wild sadly…maybe a locked movement one in an AD but unlikely

Great video and great watch. I would drop £43,500 if I could and was So fortunate to be offered it. It’s a lucky person who gets it

This is so funny. “You never know what Rolex has up its sleeve! An actual RED COLORED FONT ON THE EXACT SAME WATCH wow what innovators! OMG the sub dials are white! “🤣🤣 The hype beasts in the watch game are forever. You guys will hype a swatch from the local mall if you make a few bucks off of it.

Wait the the steel version people. Don’t let Rolex fool you.

💯

It is an absolute stunner, no debate about that. The one interesting thing that will make it a sleeper is that Rolex combined the cerachrome bezel with a white gold case and Oyster bracelet. To the non-hardcore Rolex fan geeks, at first glance it’s gonna present like a stainless steel Daytona. Only the watch-dorks who are savvy enough to look for the red ‘100’ or to notice the distinct dial, are going to realize that it’s a white gold watch. For people who like their white gold watches to fly under the radar, this will be a bonus.

Hey Eric, That`s is a winner ! It covers the Watch Collector & Lover + Motorsports Person , a must have ! It would be awesome if they limited the run that would send it into orbit . Great Job !
