This is a generic replacement ceramic bezel insert designed to fit the Rolex Daytona Ice Blue references 116506 and 126506, measuring 38.5mm in overall length and 30.5mm in width for the specific Daytona case profile.
Featuring the iconic ice blue color that matches the platinum Daytona’s unique dial, this aftermarket ceramic (Cerachrom-type) insert replicates the look of the genuine part.
It serves as a cost-effective alternative for replacing a cracked, damaged, or worn bezel insert without the high cost of an OEM Rolex part.
About the Rolex Daytona Ice Blue References
The Rolex Daytona references 116506 (discontinued) and 126506 (current) feature a 950 platinum case with an ice blue dial—a color reserved exclusively for Rolex’s platinum models. The genuine bezel insert is made of Rolex’s proprietary Cerachrom ceramic material, which is highly scratch-resistant and virtually immune to fading. The tachymetric scale is engraved and coated with platinum via PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition).

Q1: Can I polish a scratched ceramic bezel insert?
A: No. Ceramic bezel inserts cannot be polished to remove scratches. Ceramic is harder than most polishing compounds, and attempting to polish it will not remove scratches and may damage the insert or the watch. The only solution for a scratched or damaged ceramic insert is complete replacement.
Q2: Can I install this myself?
A: Not recommended for inexperienced users. Bezel insert replacement requires specialized tools (bezel removal tool, crystal press) and expertise. Ceramic is brittle and can crack or shatter under uneven pressure. If you are not a trained watchmaker, professional installation is strongly advised. Improper installation can damage the insert, the bezel mechanism, or the case.
Q3: Will using an aftermarket bezel affect my watch’s value?
A: Yes. Using aftermarket parts can significantly impact your watch’s authenticity and resale value. If you care about maintaining your Rolex’s integrity and value, professional watchmakers and collectors recommend using genuine Rolex parts for any repairs. Aftermarket parts are suitable for personal use but may be detected during professional authentication.
