Rolex Zenith Cosmograph Daytona Ref. 16516

An ultra rare Zenith Daytona Re.16516 with a turquoise dial sold for US$3.1 million at Sotheby's Hong Kong Important Watch sale. Not only did the one-of-five timepiece smash pre-sale estimates, it also planted itself firmly in the middle of the list of the most valuable Rolexes of all time. A great storyteller.
