Rolex 116518LN Cosmograph Daytona 18K Yellow Gold with Intense Black and Champagne Dial

Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116518LN “Paul Newman” – 18K Yellow Gold – Black & Champagne Dial – August 2023 Card – Mint Condition Full Set

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 116518LN “Paul Newman” is one of the most distinctive and sought-after configurations from the previous-generation yellow gold Oysterflex Daytona collection. Featuring the highly recognisable Intense Black and Champagne dial with contrasting red chronograph accents, this example comes with an August 2023 Warranty Card and is presented in mint condition, carefully worn with protective film applied to preserve its excellent condition, and comes as a complete full set.

The 40mm Oyster case is crafted from 18K yellow gold and paired with a black Cerachrom tachymeter bezel and Rolex’s sporty Oysterflex bracelet. Commonly referred to by collectors as the “Paul Newman” Daytona, the 116518LN is particularly recognisable for its contrasting champagne sub-dials and signature red chronograph seconds hand and red dial accents. These red details give the previous-generation 116518LN its unmistakable character and were removed from the newer 126518LN generation, making this earlier configuration especially appealing to collectors who prefer the bolder and more iconic dial design.

Powered by the proven Rolex Calibre 4130 automatic chronograph movement, the Daytona offers exceptional reliability and precision together with approximately 72 hours of power reserve. The combination of 18K yellow gold, black Cerachrom bezel, Oysterflex bracelet and the distinctive red-accented Paul Newman dial has made this particular 116518LN configuration a highly recognisable modern Daytona.
