With Rolex fitted presentation box and outer packaging.

Amongst the dials regularly produced, the 'Paul Newman' is considered the rarest and most prestigious ever fitted on the Cosmograph Daytona. It has been developed in many different versions, some of which are undeniably exceptional.

This 6262 reference is very well preserved and offers one of the best looks on a steel Daytona model.
