- Rolex’s Daytona might be one of the ‘hottest’ watches on the market today, but this wasn’t always the case. The watch started out as the ‘Cosmograph’, seemingly named to coincide with NASA’s efforts to explore the frontiers of space. Alas, Omega’s Speedmaster won out and became the Moonwatch, leaving Rolex’s new watch lacking a sense of purpose.
- It wasn’t until 1964 when Rolex rebranded the chronograph by associating it with the Daytona International Speedway, making the watch a racecar driver’s tool. Even still, it never enjoyed much success until Rolex once again rebranded in the late 1980s, giving the Daytona a polished bezel and new dial that gave the watch a much more contemporary and luxurious feel.
- Until a few years ago, only stainless steel Daytonas were selling for over retail. Solid gold references were seen as going against the ethos of a sports chronograph. But as the prices of steel watches skyrocketed, the precious metal Daytonas finally received some attention from the community.
SUBDIAL
Subdials are the mini-dials that sit on the watch face or dial. Also known as auxiliary dials, subdials serve different functions—like tracking lapsed seconds, minutes, and hours, the phases of the moon, a second time zone —across mechanical and specialty watches like chronographs, calendars, and GMT watches.
