Inquire NowThe Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 6262 marks a short yet pivotal moment in the Daytona’s evolution. Produced only between 1969 and 1972, it bridges eras by combining the high-beat calibre 727 with the elegant, non-Oyster case and pump pushers of earlier models, making it one of the rarest Daytonas ever made.
This example stands out for its coveted white “Paul Newman” dial, distinguished by contrasting black registers and Art Deco numerals. The luminous accents have aged to a soft vanilla hue, enhancing its vintage character and superb originality.
Accompanied by its Rolex guarantee, wallet, booklet, and box—all stamped by J. Gercovich & Hijo and dated February 2, 1974, this 6262 is an exceptionally complete example from the golden age of the Daytona.
