It was used by racing drivers, as well as by other sports personalities and celebrities, the most famous doubtless being American actor Paul Newman, who unwittingly made a significant contribution to the Daytona’s incredible and enduring success. After 25 years, in 1988, Rolex decided to update its star model by equipping it with an automatic caliber that definitively replaced the previous manual winding movements. It thus became probably one of the most coveted watches in history. Since then, the Cosmograph Daytona has continued to evolve, incorporating a host of technical innovations – from the ever more efficient movement to other components such as the ceramic bracelet and bezel. It is now available in a much wider range, including versions in precious metal and/or set with stones. The brand has nonetheless always managed to retain the distinctive DNA that makes the Daytona instantly recognizable. After a first volume dedicated to manual winding models (1963-1988), Watchprint.com and the authors are publishing this second volume devoted entirely to automatic models (from 1988 to the present day). Together, the two books will provide readers with a comprehensive guide to the entire production history of the most famous chronograph of all time.
