A Complete Guide to Rolex Daytona Prices

The Rolex Daytona – the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona to be exact – is one of the most popular watches not only in the brand but in the entire watchmaking industry. This is not surprising considering the brand heritage of Rolex and the many advantages and luxurious bearings of this fake watch. Given that it’s also one of the brand’s flagship models, it’s no wonder to see the price of the Rolex Daytona skyrocket over the years. To this day, we can only see its upward trend with no signs of restraint.  replica Rolex Daytona
But what determines the price of the Rolex Daytona? To understand the value of this watch, we must dig deeper into its roots and understand its beginnings because, after all, the Cosmograph Daytona is not just any other watch. It is a heritage that lives around your wrist.
Evolution of the Rolex Daytona
Contrary to what one might believe, chronographs are not exactly popular, especially in the past, at least according to Rolex’s history. The brand produced chronographs, but they were little more than a shadow of the three-handed watches that used to be the hype. Rolex began introducing chronographs powered by third-party Calibres. These replica watches did not yet use the popular Oyster case until the Second World War took place. Eventually, Rolex took the initiative to introduce the chronograph in its now iconic Oyster case. However, despite the many features the chronograph offered, especially at the time, it still did not become a hit.
Model 6234 “Pre-Daytona” Chronograph
The Rolex Ref. 6234 “Pre-Daytona” Chronograph is available in a steel or yellow gold 36mm case with a silver or black dial. It has a telemeter and tachymeter scale. On the dial, you will find applied dagger indexes, as well as leaf-shaped hands. However, this watch does not have the maximum water resistance of the Oyster, as it has unthreaded or non-screwed-down pump pushers. Powering this watch is the Valjoux 72A hand-wound movement, which Rolex used until 1988.
On the other hand, the Rolex Ref. 6238 “Pre-Daytona” Chronograph is available in a steel case, a 14K gold case, or an 18K gold case. Just like its predecessor, it comes in a 36mm case with a silver or black dial. Other iterations, however, feature a dark gray dial instead or, in most rare cases, a blue and red multi-scale dial. Thanks to the Valjoux 72 movement, it is distinguished from Ref. 6234. One of the features that distinguish these two watches is the baton hand on Ref. 6238, as well as its applied hour-markers and luminous hour plots.
The beach in Daytona, Florida, is where the first automobile race was held in 1902. As the race progressed, it became a breeding ground for world records in speed. One of its most successful racers was Sir Malcolm Campbell of England. The racer was an avid Rolex fan and wore a Rolex replica watch to and from the track in the 1930s. In 1931, when he set the world land speed record at Daytona, his Rolex watch accompanied him. He expressed his delight in the functionality and durability of his Oyster watch by thanking Rolex personally in a letter.
