Description
By far the rarest reference of all Daytonas, the 6240 is a transitional model that introduced the screw down chronograph pushers. While the later screw down pusher references 6263 and 6265 abound, the 6240 is a very rare watch. This watch is made very rare indeed thanks to the original Tiffany & Co. co-signed dial. This watch is from 1965, which is the first year of 6240 production. Look at those big Mark 1 chronograph pushers – the brass is peeking through!
Original case looks never polished and is stainless steel with dimensions of 37.5mm diameter by 12.5mm thick. Plastic crystal. Aforementioned oversized screw down chronograph pushers and winding crown (all working great). The edge of the original bezel is as sharp and defined as the day this watch left the factory. While the original black bezel insert shows some light marking, the rest of the watch case is in phenomenally good condition. Serial number 1298XXX dates production to 1965.
Original untouched silver Tiffany & Co. dial with contrasting black subdials and original hands.
Original movement is the manual winding Rolex Caliber 72B with 17 jewels and adjusted to three positions. This caliber features column wheel construction – by far the superior chronograph caliber construction ever made. Movement is clean and running.
New light brown pebbled leather strap with steel Rolex buckle.
This is a great, all original and rare vintage Rolex Cosmograph Daytona in exemplary condition.
