Introduction
While famed for its long history as one of motorsports’ most iconic timepieces and horology’s most influential watches, the Rolex Daytona has had its fair share of exuberant references that explored new aesthetic identities over the years, much like the “Beach Daytona.” Launched in 2001 and produced until 2005, this short-lived family of four variants resided within the 116519 reference and features a yellow, blue, green, and pink variant, each mounted to a leather strap that matches the color of the dial for a playful monochromatic aesthetic. Powered by the ever-impressive and still modern automatic cal. 4130 chronograph movement, this collection of stunning statement pieces is as robust as any Daytona, while bringing a strong sense of personality and fun to the famed family of watches. Crafted from 18k white gold, these 40mm beauties are luxurious watches that bring a personality-packed design to your wrist thanks to their exuberant color and playful take on what is usually a serious watch. Thanks to their short production span, rare and unique, these are not watches you want to miss!

THE DIAL
Featuring a stunning rich turquoise blue dial, this Daytona Beach variant sports perhaps the most vivid dial option across the family of four.

THE CONSTRUCTION
Tiffany blue long before it was the next big thing, this Daytona's strap and dial combination couldn't be more fashionable or stylish at the moment even if it tried.

Our Perspective
One of the four most playful Daytona variants we'll probably ever see leave Geneva, the Beach collection is a fantastic reminder that Rolex can lighten their tone and deliver a fashionable watch that isn't hyper-focused on maintaining Rolex's renowned tool watch mandate.
