Rolex “Sigma” Daytona Reference 6263

This Rolex Daytona Reference 6263 is a great example. The “Sigma” dial is in great condition with white printing and original tritium lume on the dial and in the hands. The white registers are extremely clean and beautiful. On these black dial Daytonas, they often show scratches and wear due to the paint being so thin. This watch features the correct Mark 2 screw-down pushers. It has a period correct Rolex C+I (made in USA) rivet bracelet. The case has been lightly polished, but remains strong and maintains its original form.

This Daytona features its original rare “Mark 1” acrylic bezel (with “hooked 2” in 200), which is in outstanding original condition. I would value this bezel at about $20,000 by itself as it is also correct for valuable Rolex “Paul Newman” Daytona references 6241, 6264, and 6263.

This watch has a 3.2 million case serial number dating to circa 1973. It is powered by the manual-wind movement Caliber 727 made by Valjoux and is 37mm in diameter.

The watch does not come with box or papers.

It is an extremely beautiful and coherent example of an early Daytona reference 6263 from the period before these stated “Daytona” on the dial.
