In 2013, Rolex made history with the debut of its first platinum Cosmograph Daytona, a milestone that sent tremors through the collecting world. Yet true to form, Rolex was not content to rest on its laurels. Just a year later, at Baselworld 2014, the brand unveiled a dazzling evolution of the concept: reference 116576TBR. If the original Platinum Daytona charmed with its understated ice-blue dial and rich chestnut ceramic bezel, the 116576TBR pushed into an altogether more glamorous dimension. Its bezel shimmers with 36 tessellated brilliant-cut baguette diamonds—precisely set, perfectly matched—and its dial is a radiant field of 437 round diamonds, pavé-set with Rolex’s signature precision. This isn’t merely embellishment; it’s horology elevated to art. To maintain functionality amidst the spectacle, Rolex outfitted the dial with blued white gold hands and matching surrounds for the hour markers, creating a striking yet legible contrast. The subdials remain a cool unmistakable ice blue, an elegant reminder of the platinum beneath. What sets this piece apart, however, is not only its aesthetic opulence but its rarity. This specimen, complete with its full suite of original accessories and preserved in exemplary condition, represents a truly rare opportunity—a connoisseur’s gem, in every sense of the word. A watch not just worn, but curated; not just admired, but revered.
