Median price per month or quarter. A point needs at least 3 records in its month or quarter; a gap in a line means too few records, and nothing is filled in. Forum prices are the price a seller listed on Reddit r/Watchexchange, RolexForums or WatchUSeek when the post was marked sold, not a confirmed sale price. Historical context only: these series do not feed the price shown above.

The Daytona 126500LN at a glance

The 126500LN is the steel Cosmograph Daytona that Rolex introduced in 2023, replacing the 116500LN. It has a 40 mm Oystersteel case and a monobloc black Cerachrom bezel edged with a thin polished Oystersteel band. It is offered with a white lacquered dial with black sub-dial rings or a black dial with silver rings. Inside is the automatic calibre 4131, which took over from the calibre 4130.

We don't list a nickname for the 126500LN; buyers and dealers identify it by reference number and dial colour.

Where the 126500LN price stands right now:

  • Fair value now: $24,500–$40,800.
  • Midpoint of recent market prices: $32,600.
  • Newest observation: October 17, 2026.
  • Observations behind the estimate: 246.

What affects the price

Dial. White and black dials share one reference, and buyers often prefer one. A listing should state the dial colour.

Condition. Ranges by condition (a condition shows a range only once it has enough results of its own):

  • Unworn: $27,200–$36,800.
  • Excellent: $23,800–$32,200.
  • Good: not enough market data yet.
  • Fair: not enough market data yet.

Box, papers and card date. This is a recent reference, so a full set with a recent card is the norm, and a watch without one stands out.

Retail reference. €16,350 (retail list price in France per 41watch and Monochrome Watches, January 2026).

Recent movement. Change over the past year: +4.6% over 12 months.

Tips for buyers

  • Confirm the reference is 126500LN with the calibre 4131. The papers should show the same reference and serial as the watch.
  • Check the dial colour you want against the listing photos.
  • Check the card date and match the serial to the watch.
  • Compare the asking price with our fair-value range, and with the range for its condition where one is shown.

Tips for sellers

  • State the dial colour and include box, card and receipt.
  • Don't polish the case or bracelet.
  • Photograph the dial, bezel and caseback in daylight.
  • Use the published price data on this page as a starting point, and get more than one offer.
