Crafted in 18K white gold, the 40mm Oyster case embodies Rolex’s signature robustness and waterproof design, while serving as the perfect canvas for a spectacular gem-set composition. The bezel is adorned with 36 baguette-cut sapphires, arranged in a vibrant rainbow gradient that transitions seamlessly through every color spectrum. Complementing this stunning display, 11 baguette-cut sapphire hour markers echo the bezel’s hues, while the lugs and crown guards are pavé-set with brilliant white diamonds, a testament to Rolex’s unrivaled precision in gem-setting.

At its heart beats the Rolex Caliber 4130, an in-house self-winding mechanical chronograph movement developed and manufactured entirely by Rolex. Renowned for its reliability and efficiency, the Caliber 4130 incorporates a vertical clutch and column wheel mechanism for precise chronograph engagement, along with a Parachrom hairspring for enhanced resistance to shocks and temperature variations. With a power reserve of approximately 72 hours, it ensures dependable accuracy and endurance under any condition.

The watch is fitted with the iconic Oyster bracelet, crafted in solid 18K white gold, featuring polished center links and a folding Oysterlock clasp for both security and comfort. As part of the Rolex “Gem-Set” collection, each Rainbow Daytona undergoes rigorous standards of gemstone selection and placement, making no two pieces identical.
