A Racing Legacy in Precious Metal
Originally designed for professional endurance racing, the Cosmograph Daytona has become one of the most coveted chronographs in the world. The reference 116509 stands out within the Daytona line thanks to its full 18k white gold case and bracelet—offering serious weight, presence, and refinement.
Full 18k White Gold Case & Bracelet

The matching white gold fixed tachymeter bezel offers precise speed readings, while the polished surfaces enhance the watch’s mirror-like aesthetic. This is luxury you can feel the moment it’s on your wrist.
The ‘Ghost’ Dial: Stealth Meets Sophistication
The silvery sunburst dial—known by collectors as the "Ghost" dial—offers a tone-on-tone layout with matching silver sub-dials, giving the watch a clean, stealthy, and ultra-modern appearance. Red accents on the chronograph hands and text add a subtle yet sporty contrast, while luminous hour markers provide functionality in low light.
