Let’s take a closer look

SRK’s Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Sapphire is a masterpiece of luxury and exclusivity - an off-catalogue piece from Watches and Wonders 2025, reserved only for the brand’s top VVIP clients. It features a 40mm diameter 18-carat white gold case, lavishly adorned with 54 brilliant-cut diamonds, complemented by a bezel set with 36 striking baguette-cut blue sapphires. The dial is crafted from silver obsidian, subtly shifting colour with changing light, and is framed by an 18-carat white gold Oyster bracelet that completes the watch’s opulent finish.

Pricing

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Sapphire is a true showstopper with an estimated market value of ₹13,51,26,825 - which amounts to more than 15 million dollars! The Instagram page Insanely Luxurious Indians reports that only a handful of these pieces exist worldwide, making it a true museum-grade collectible reserved for the rarest of collections. It is also known as the “ghost” watch - a nickname earned from its extreme exclusivity, as it never appeared in any public Rolex catalogue.
