📖 About This Reference
**Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Reference 116598 RBOW**
The reference 116598 RBOW represents Rolex's gem-set interpretation of the Cosmograph Daytona, distinguished by its comprehensive diamond application across both dial and bezel. This Yellow Gold Rainbow series variant combines the chronograph functionality of the Daytona platform with extensive precious stone decoration.
The 40mm case is constructed in yellow gold, fitted with sapphire crystal and offering 100m water resistance. The automatic caliber 4130 movement provides 72 hours of power reserve. The diamond pavé dial pairs with a rainbow diamond bezel, while a yellow gold Oyster bracelet completes the configuration.
Produced approximately between 2013-2023, this reference targets collectors seeking maximum gem-set execution within the Daytona range. The comprehensive diamond treatment across multiple surfaces positions this variant at the apex of decorative complexity within the model lineup, appealing to those prioritizing jewelry-grade finishing over tool watch heritage.
