Rolex Cosmograph Daytona 6239 Stainless Steel “Paul Newman" Black - from 1969 - Available - Price on request
The reference 6239 is one of the most exclusive Daytonas, being at the origin of the Daytona’s history and the very first to feature the “Daytona” signature on its dial. We are particularly drawn to its smaller case diameter and minimalist pushers... Everything is perfect regarding its design. But what makes this watch truly exceptional is undoubtedly its black Paul Newman dial, known as the “Reverse Panda.” This rare “three-color” variation (black with white subdials and red details—Daytona inscription, graduations around the dial, and “T SWISS T”) is in perfect condition and has never been restored. The Rolex Cosmograph “Paul Newman” is THE collector’s watch that has attracted the most attention, particularly following the record sale of the actor’s watch for over $17 million. The example presented here is highly desirable, in impeccable condition with all its original parts. Cherry on the cake, the serial number is extremely close to Paul Newman’s own watch!
