1. Chestnut Brown Monoblock Ceramic Bezel and Case Geometry
The most distinctive design element of the Rolex Daytona 116506 Ice Blue model is its deeply polished monoblock chestnut brown Cerachrom ceramic bezel.

2. Luminous Sunray Ice Blue Dial and Brown Sub-Dials
The sunburst ice blue dial, the exclusive color of platinum Daytonas, emits a rich blue glow that resembles ice crystals under light. The chestnut brown lower chronograph rings and rhodium-plated indices are in perfect symmetry.
3. Dandong 4130 Integrated Movement and Perfect Chronograph Precision
At the heart of the 116506 model is the Dandong 4130, one of the most stable calibers in the watchmaking world. With its real 72-hour power reserve, independent column wheel and vertical clutch mechanism, the chronograph hand operates smoothly with zero vibration.
4. Closed Back Solid Case Insulation and Oysterlock Clasp
The closed-back solid screw caseback, faithful to the original of the Platinum reference 116506, fully protects the Dandong 4130 caliber inside against dust and moisture. While the case, which is subjected to 10 bar pressure in our workshop, provides full sealing, the solid body and Oysterlock buckle provide a saturated platinum toughness on the wrist.
