White gold 40mm case, engraved white gold tachymetre bezel, white gold Oyster bracelet, the same vertical-clutch column-wheel cal 4130 inside. Production ran nearly twenty years before the 126509 took its place with cal 4131. | The 116509 is the full white gold expression of the in-house Daytona generation, and the only cal 4130 Daytona Rolex shipped on a white gold Oyster bracelet from launch.
