Two-tone with a white dial

Reference 126503-0001 is the steel and yellow gold Daytona with a white dial.

The bezel with its engraved tachymeter scale is yellow gold-plated, as are the pushers, crown and the centre row of the bracelet.

126503-0001 specifications

Where steel and gold meet

The case sides and the outer bracelet links are 904L steel, so the gold appears as a frame around the dial and a band down the bracelet. That makes it less formal than the all-gold 126508-0001 with a similar white dial. Sapphire crystal; at 30 m it can stay on for hand washing.

Movement and sister dials

Japanese Miyota-based chronograph at 21,600 vph, or Swiss built to follow the 4130 at 28,800 vph. The other 126503 dials we list are the black 126503-0003, the gem-set 126503-0002 and the golden 126503-0004. See the full list of Daytona references for other colours.

Is the gold on the 126503 solid?

No. The bezel, crown, pushers and centre links are yellow gold-plated over 904L steel; the rest is steel.
