ROLEX. AN OYSTER COSMOGRAPH DAYTONA WRISTWATCH WITH AN ADDITIONAL DIAL, REF. 6265
Launched in the 1970s, the reference 6265 is the sister reference of the 6263. Inheriting attributes of reference 6240, the chronograph bears the “Oyster” designation on the upper-half of its dial and is built with screw-down pushers, a screw back and screw-down crown. Made in steel, 14 and 18 karat gold, it is estimated that over a 20 year period, only 24,000 reference 6263 and 6265 were produced in stainless steel.
Housing the Valjoux 727 movement and a dial with cherry red “Daytona” signature, the chronograph was made with a slightly wider case, giving the wristwatch a more athletic feel than earlier references. Adding to its appeal, the timepiece is in very good overall condition and is offered with a very collectible additional black red Daytona "sigma" dial. Furthermore, the owner specially requested for the timepiece to be fitted with an attractive black bezel, commonly seen on the reference 6263.
