Introduced in 1963, it was designed to meet the needs of professional drivers. Its design hallmarks \u2013 from the unmistakable Oyster case to the emblematic screw-down pushers and tachymetric bezel \u2013 have provided a canvas for racing watches and chronographs that continue to be the standard today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Any Rolex Daytona on your wrist is an immediate conversation starter, and Rolex has managed to make a few of these models stand out even more. How? Through the use of natural materials.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With a medley of colors and a diversity of textures that only Mother Nature could create, these Rolex Daytona dials made of natural materials have a personality all their own.

In particular, they use the Gibeon meteorite, a Class IVA meteorite that fell into Earth millions of years ago and was later discovered in the Namibian desert. The meteorite has made its appearance in the Datejust, Day-Date, and GMT-Master families. When paired with the Daytona, it was usually crafted in white gold, until 2021 when a new generation of meteorite dial models were introduced.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswatchexpo.com\/watches\/rolex-cosmograph-daytona-meteorite-dial-everose-gold-mens-watch-116515-box-card-54557\/\">Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref 116515LN<\/a> was introduced in 2021 as part of a new generation of precious metal models with meteorite dials.
