IN A TIMELY UNVEILING, Rolex has revealed a new Daytona - on the expression's 60th anniversary, and 23 years after the last Daytona - at this year's Watches & Wonders.
This new generation, as is often the case with Rolex, brings hundreds of minor (often virtually unnoticeable) aesthetic adjustments and technical upgrades. The new Daytona appears to be quite similar to the previous version, yet virtually no components of the habillage are identical.
The Porsche 911 is a classic and save for tweaks, it's been virtually unchanged. With the new Rolex Daytona, pay attention and you'll notice that the case has changed shape, the guards have been redone, the first link of the bracelet has been replaced, and the hands and indexes have been rearranged.
