In 2024, Rolex launches two new precious and exclusive versions of the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona. These two timepieces feature the iconic contrasting dial made from natural mother-of-pearl and graced with eight diamonds and three Chromalight hour markers.

Both watches are crafted in 18 ct white gold and crowned with a bezel set with 36 brilliant-cut diamonds.

The first version, fitted on an Oysterflex bracelet, features a dial in white mother-of-pearl with chronograph counters in black mother-of-pearl.

In the second version, the colour combination is reversed, with an Oyster bracelet and a black mother-of-pearl dial with white mother-of-pearl counters.

The discs of material used for the dial and the counters are positioned to optimize the colour intensity of each variety of mother-of-pearl and further enhance the contrast between them. This design called for the creation of a specific and technically demanding manufacturing process
