The first Rolex Cosmograph Daytona was introduced in 1963, which leads into this 50th anniversary of this highly sought-after chronograph. Both new and pre-loved. Although in 2013 Rolex did not came up with the limited or special anniversary edition that many people expected, they did introduce - for the first time - a platinum version of their Rolex Cosmograph Daytona and have it reference number 116506.
