Rolex. A Fine and Rare Stainless Steel Chronograph Wristwatch with "Tropical" Dial

Amongst the most highly coveted timepieces, the Rolex Daytona has established itself as a true icon within the world of watch collecting. From its origination, the model has encountered a multitude of variations from dials to cases and movements, all illustrating the incessant quest for innovations of Rolex, while staying true to its heritage.

The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 6263 is one of the most desirable chronographs ever produced. This model's distinguishing features are the screw-down pushers and black bezel.

Part of the most appreciated wristwatches, chronographs such as the present reference are cherished by collectors due to their rarified nature. Enhancing its appeal, the dial of the timepiece has aged throughout the years from black to a highly attractive and uniform brown shade, a process now referred to amongst collectors as ‘Tropicalization’.

Consigned by the original owner and offered complete with its original Rolex Guarantee, invoice and presentation box, the present wristwatch can be considered as a very attractive and rare example of the reference.
