The item purchased by S. was: The Rolex Daytona Ref. 116506 is the top-of-the-line professional model .

Due to its rarity and outstanding design, it has been extremely popular since its release. The successor model, Ref. 126506, was announced at Watches and Wonders Geneva in 2023, and it was sadly discontinued, but the number of units in circulation on the market is still low, and its popularity shows no sign of waning.

STAFF COMMENTS

Thank you very much for your purchase, Mr. S. This time, after you contacted us on Instagram, one of the two watches we had in stock was sold immediately, and we were both a bit worried (laughs). However, you made a decision immediately after that, and we were impressed by your judgment. The ice blue watch was a watch that Mr. S had always wanted, so it really suited him! Also, the fact that a famous person was wearing it casually and coolly was a big factor in deciding the decision. Looking at Mr. S's wonderful watch collection, we could see that he really loves watches, from vintage to current models, and even a variety of brands. Adding this ice blue to your collection will make it the strongest lineup ever! Next time, please come to the store with your nephew who loves watches. We look forward to seeing you.
