Rolex “Full-Set 6263 Sigma” Daytona

Description

Offered here is a beautiful example of Rolex Daytona, Ref. 6263 (circa 1972; 3.2m serial), nicknamed the “Sigma” Daytona, due to the printing of two small sigmas at the bottom of the dial next to “T SWISS T”.  This example is outfitted with a rare black “silver print” 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. This particular example comes complete, with its original Rolex box, booklets, and written Warranty Certificate, originally sold by the retailer Becker, based in Hamburg, Germany.

The condition of this Daytona is great. The case has been previously polished, but lightly, with thick and even 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 orange-color plots, and only minor loss to the 3 o’clock plot; while the hands are tritium hands, they do not glow when exposed to UV light similar to the dial, and are likely very early service replacement hands.

The watch also comes with a 7836/19 Rolex Oyster folded-link bracelet, with 357 endlinks. The bracelet has light stretch, and has 13 links in total.
