ROLEX 6263 BIG RED DAYTONA BLACK SIGMA DIAL STEEL BOX & PAPERS

I used to be more diplomatic when people would ask what kind of watch they should buy. I would ask "what do you like?"; and advise them to follow their heart. Now, twenty years later, after speaking to thousands of people about watches, I just tell them to buy a Daytona. Nothing is finer than a clean vintage Daytona like this model 6263 with sweet black Big Red Sigma dial. In addition, this Cosmograph Daytona is accompanied by its original box, papers and service papers.

Extremely crisp stainless steel case measures 38mm diameter by 13mm thick. Domed plastic crystal. Black bezel. Screw down crown and screw down chronograph pushers. Serial number 5382XXX dates production to 1977. Original untouched black Sigma dial with Big Red DAYTONA, applied white gold hour markers and Rolex coronet, contrasting silver subdials and original white gold hands.

Original Rolex Caliber 727 with 17 jewels and column wheel construction. Movement is pristine and running.

Rolex heavy link Oyster bracelet with flip lock clasp (installed during 2014 Rolex service). Watch is in mint+ condition.
