The Daytona has long stood at the centre of Rolex’s racing story, but the Le Mans edition takes that connection a step further. Released to mark the centenary of the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans, the reference 126528LN celebrates endurance, speed and one of motorsport’s most iconic events. It is unmistakably a Daytona, yet the small details tell you this is something a little more special.

Crafted in yellow gold with a black Cerachrom bezel, the watch carries the familiar confidence of the Daytona line while introducing subtle nods to its racing inspiration. The black dial is punctuated by gold sub dials and a red 100 marker on the tachymeter scale, a quiet tribute to the centenary of the race. Look closer and you will spot the 24 hour counter at nine o’clock, a detail inspired by the 24 hour format of Le Mans itself and a reminder of the endurance that defines the event.

Powered by Rolex’s calibre 4132, the Le Mans Daytona blends technical precision with unmistakable presence on the wrist. Yet like many of the most interesting Rolex releases, its appeal goes beyond the specifications. This is a watch tied to a moment in racing history, designed with the kind of subtle storytelling that makes collectors look twice.

Our unworn 2025 example is accompanied by a matching dated warranty card and is offered as a full set with both tags, booklets, and the original Rolex box.
