Specialist note

Arguably the most coveted of the vintage Rolex Daytona variants, the reference 6263 (along with Ref. 6265) were produced from 1971 to 1988 and represent the last of the manually-wound Daytona chronograph references. The Ref. 6263 was characterised by its black acrylic bezel and screw-down pushers. This particular reference does not even mention the word "Daytona" on the dial and the reverse panda dial makes this particular example even more alluring to the discerning collector.
