These 40 mm guides cover 126500LN, 126503, 126505, 126506, 126508, 126509, 126515LN, 126518LN, 126519LN, 126535TBR, 126538TBR, 126539TBR, 126579RBR, 126589RBR, 126595TBR, 126598TBR. We also assess earlier references and discontinued configurations. Send photographs and the reference if your version is not listed.
Start with the 40 mm case and documented reference, then identify the metal, bezel and dial. Size pages cover the range; reference guides distinguish the watch specification; configuration pages identify a particular dial and bracelet pairing.
Tell us which bracelet is fitted: the bracelet specified for your reference. Missing links, replacement straps, clasp wear and alterations should be included with the enquiry.
Describe the start, stop and reset operation of the chronograph and any known fault. Photograph the pushers, crown and tachymetric bezel at an angle. A ceramic bezel, an engraved metal bezel and a factory gem-set bezel belong to different reference comparisons.
For an Oysterflex version, include the fitted strap sizes, condition and clasp. For an Oyster bracelet, show all links and any spare links. Do not operate the pushers underwater or open the case just to identify the movement.
Send clear photographs of your Rolex Daytona 40 mm, including case sides, bezel, bracelet or strap and clasp. Describe scratches, polishing, known faults and replacement parts. Include the warranty-card date, service invoices, box, papers and spare links where available.
You can enquire without a complete set. Explain what is missing and whether the box or documents were obtained separately. There is no need to polish or service the watch just to ask for an initial assessment. Keep the full serial number out of public photographs.
