Rolex Paul Newman Daytona Reference 6239 Unpolished
This is an incredible Rolex “Paul Newman” Daytona reference 6239 with white dial.
The case and bezel appear to be unpolished and are extremely crisp. It is paired on a Rolex Oyster rivet reference 7205 bracelet with correct and very rare 71 end links dating to 1968. We added the bracelet to the watch, which we found head only on a strap. The serial number is 1.9M dating to circa 1969. The serial is close to Paul Newman’s own Paul Newman Daytona Reference 6239 that sold for $17.8 million USD in 2018.
It has good provenance and is a fantastic example. The watch does not come with box and papers. We do not know the service history, but it is running well.
The watch is gorgeous - it is so difficult to find great Paul Newman Daytonas with white dials like this example. Finding an unpolished? I might see one or two maximum come to market each year. I can envision a day in the not-too-distant future where each great Paul Newman Daytona with white dial is $1 million or more and I expect whoever buys this watch will be very happy to own it as time passes.
It recently passed a water resistance test of 5 bar.
