Item Details
Description
Historical Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Big
Brand: Rolex
Design: Cosmograph Daytona Watch
Case Material: Steel
Case Shape: Round
Movement: Automatic
Case Dimensions: Diameter: 1.58 in (40 mm)
Style: Modern
Place of Origin: Switzerland
Period: 21st Century
Date of Manufacture: 1979
Condition: Excellent Replacements made: bezel, crystal and pushers are replaced by Rolex Official dealer in 2018.
First launched in 1963 and created specifically for the world of automotive racing, the Rolex Daytona collection is arguably one of the most popular and universally respected lines of timepieces from the brands entire catalog. And among the numerous references that make up this iconic collection of chronograph watches, the ?Big Red? Rolex Daytona reference 6263 is easily one of the most famous, collectible, and instantly recognizable.
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona holds a special place within the vintage watch collecting world. Arguably more than any other line of Rolex watches, the Daytona has a remarkable way of exciting collectors and attaining stratospheric prices at auction. While a number of vintage Rolex watches (particularly those from the Daytona collection) have attained legendary levels of collectability, the reference 6263 ?Big Red? is considered by many to be one of the most desirable vintage Rolex Daytona models of all time.
Although the reference 6263 Daytona watches fitted with exotic Paul Newman dials receive the lions share of the press attention and sell for truly astronomical prices whenever they manage to surface at auction, the ?Big Red? is another dial variation of the iconic reference 6263 Daytona that is frequently sought-after by vintage Rolex collectors. Offered in either black or silver with contrasting colors for the sub-dials/chronograph registers, the reference 6263 ?Big Red? gets its name from the bright red ?Daytona? name that appears in an extra-large font, right in the center of the dial above the sub-dial at 6 o?clock.
