This 40 mm Daytona carries an aftermarket PVD/DLC coating that gives the case its deep black appearance, complemented by a black analog dial with index markers and silver-tone hands. The rainbow custom-set bezel — fitted with synthetic gems, not diamonds — adds vivid color contrast that sets this piece apart from any standard configuration. An Oysterlock-clasp rubber band rounds out the sport-forward aesthetic.
Beneath the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, the watch runs on an automatic movement and delivers hour, minute, second, and chronometer functions. The screw-down crown and 100 meters / 330 feet of water resistance speak to the robust engineering of the underlying Daytona platform. The black coating, rainbow bezel, and rubber strap are aftermarket customizations applied to the ref. 116523 base watch.
This example is offered in new condition and comes with its original box and original papers. The watch label reads Swiss Made, and the reference is 116523.
