This watch is in overall excellent vintage condition. The case is strong with some scratches and the numbers between the lugs are clearly visible. Behind the lugs show some scratches/ wear from the bracelet. The bezel is in excellent condition with normal signs of wear and some scratches throughout. The dial is in overall excellent condition and all the lume has aged to an even, buttery yellow color. The dial has one mark along the edge under 3 o'clock that can be hard to notice. The folded link bracelet is in great condition with light stretch which is common for this style bracelet.
The Rolex "Paul Newman" Daytona reference 6241 is one of the most desirable vintage Rolex chronographs. This Daytona features a bold "exotic" dial with unique box markers in the chronograph sub-dials. These chronographs earned the nickname "Paul Newman" because the beloved actor wore a Daytona reference 6239 with this exact exotic dial. Paul Newman Daytonas always feature a red outer seconds track, white dial, and black registers with white printing.
The reference 6241 featured pump pushers to start, stop, and reset the chronograph (later models featured screw-down pushers to increase water resistance). Furthermore, the reference 6241 features a black acrylic bezel with a tachymeter track for measuring speeds, compared with the steel bezel found on the reference 6239. This watch features a manual-winding Valjoux chronograph movement that was regulated by Rolex.
