The new 2016 Cosmograph Daytona with Cerachrom Bezel

than the current one. But judging from the responses of the local collectors, it didn’t seem to dampen their interest. The new version of the Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona in 904L stainless steel is equipped with a black monobloc Cerachrom bezel, combining high-technology and a sense of heritage, the use black bezel pays tribute to its 1965 model that previously used a black Plexiglas bezel insert.
