About this watch

An exceptional early example featuring the distinctive first-series “Millerighe” screw-down pushers and a beautiful panda dial. The silver dial with contrasting black chronograph registers, framed by the black tachymeter bezel, gives this reference its unmistakable character.

Inside is the manually wound Rolex calibre 727, based on the Valjoux 72, one of the defining movements of the vintage Daytona.

Combining the sought-after MK1 configuration with outstanding condition, this 6263 is a particularly appealing example of the early screw-down-pusher Daytona.
