Rolex. A Very Fine and Rare Stainless Steel Chronograph Wristwatch with Bracelet and "Paul Newman" Dial

Amongst all of the Cosmograph Daytonas, reference 6264 is one of the rarest, considered by collectors to be a transitional model, it was in production for only three years between 1969 and 1972. Together with reference 6262, it was the last Rolex chronograph watch featuring the simple round push-down buttons. All future Cosmograph references, starting with references 6263 and 6265, bear screw down chronograph buttons. Reference 6264 was available in stainless steel, as well as 14K and 18K gold. It has a bezel with black acrylic insert and white tachymeter graduation.

From a descendent of the original owner, the present example is fresh to market and to the best of our knowledge has never before been offered publically.
