In celebration of the 100th anniversary of Le Mans, Rolex announced a very special Daytona. Taking everything new that the link brand announced at Watches & Wonders 2023 (new symmetrical case, metal-edged link bezel, re-configured dial layout, and new movement), this latest iteration of the Daytona is just…extra in all link the right ways.
Since this is link Rolex we're talking about, these watches technically aren't limited editions, but you can bet that there'll be a years-long waitlist for each of them by the time you finish reading this sentence. Prices are $34,050 (white gold), link $41,000 (yellow gold), and $43,700 (Everose gold), link and the watches will be available soon from Rolex retailers worldwide.
Since 2010, I've owned several watches from Benarus, and then Raven, and I only bring it up link because the Trekker 39 link exceeded my general expectations and also managed to illustrate link just how far Raven has come since its earliest models. The "39" in the Trekker's name is based on the case size (i.e. 39mm wide). Match that with a thickness of 13mm and a very wearable 47.5mm lug to lug (making it very similar in size to another very well-known 39mm diver).
Easily mistaken for the more common Mark XVIII, as link they share nearly identical dial layouts, hands, and cases, the difference is in the Spitfire's aged-effect lume, a color inspired by the way older tritium link lume would age to a creamy tone. Modern Super-LumiNova will not age in the same way, but link it can be colored to have a similar look on your wrist.
In many ways, the M60C wears like a link hypothetical blending of link a Pelagos and a Black Bay Fifty-Eight. And while that's not at all an apples-to-apples comparison, I do mean it as a big compliment to the Vertex. It's a lovely dive watch, even at this price point, and even if it doesn't have the broad link brand appeal and legacy of a dive watch from Tudor.
