Produced in 1978, this watch is a true collector's item.
The 6265 models were produced from 1971 to 1988.
Characteristic of the model, the bezel is made of metal and graduated up to 200 units.
The 37 mm case is beautiful, thick and sharp.
The finish is satin and the bevels are pointed.
The brushed steel dial is simply splendid.
It is an original dial with the T SWISS T at 6 o'clock. The 2 Ts indicated that the indexes were covered with Tritium.
The DAYTONA registration comes from the famous endurance race held since 1966 on the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. It is called the ROLEX 24.
Here we have a BIG RED, with red and oily writing which is the most valuable model.
The stick style hands had a Tritium application at their ends.
The movement is a 727 manual winding Valjoux caliber.
The Oyster steel bracelet has the original reference, 78350 19, delivered with the DAYTONA watches from 1974 onwards.
The requirement of collectors today makes this watch a very good investment for the future because the DAYTONA, and particularly the BIG RED is a model that becomes very very rare.
