Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 16519 Description

Reference 16519 is the first Daytona ever to be offered in 18k white gold, produced from approximately 1997 to 2000. It is powered by the Caliber 4030 (modified Zenith El Primero). The 19 configuration code specifies a model with a solid 18k white gold case and bezel, delivered on a leather strap with a white gold deployant clasp. Its historical significance is immense, as it introduced white gold to the Daytona lineup for the first time, creating a discreetly luxurious “stealth” option and paving the way for future white precious metal models.
