The Rolex Daytona is nowadays one of the most, if not the most, sought after wristwatch by collectors and neophytes all over the world. The lot offered in this auction is a very nice and beautiful example of Daytona 6239: realized in stainless steel, this watch has been carefully preserved in very good conditions, with still its pump pushers, its twin lock winding crown of 6 mm wide and the very fresh and crisp steel graduated bezel. The argentè dial is immaculate with the micro Daytona signature at 12 o’clock, the applied baton numerals with the luminous material dots still intact and perfectly shaped. The black subsidiary counters give a note of movement to the dial and attract for their preservation.
