Rolex “6265 Big Red” Daytona

Description

Offered here is a beautiful example of Rolex Daytona, Ref. 6265 (circa 1979; 6.2m serial), nicknamed the “Big Red” Daytona, due to the printing of “Daytona” in bright red letters in the center of the dial. This example is outfitted with a reverse panda-black dial, and features screwdown pushers. These screwdown pusher-Daytonas have soared in popularity over the last couple decades, and are coveted by collectors, new and old.

The condition of this Daytona is excellent. The case does not show signs of serious polishing, with very strong lugs.  The dial is in beautiful condition, with no flaws.  The original tritium lume is still present on both dial and hands, with extremely beautiful and puffy plots.  The watch also comes with a 78350/19 oyster bracelet, with 557 B endlinks. The bracelet has virtually no stretch, and has 11 links in total.
