Rolex introduced the “Cosmograph Daytona” in 1963, ten years after introducing their first Oyster-case chronograph model. Rolex chose to connect it with motosport car racing due to the tachymeter printed on the bezel. This was a distinct departure from previous Rolex chronographs, which located any such markings under the crystal, and became the signature feature of the Cosmograph model.
