The #Rolex Daytona ref. 6262 #PaulNewman was only in production for approximately one year making it one of the rarest variations of the Daytona. This great example is available in our upcoming #Geneva Rare Watches sale on May 16. #ChristiesWatches #vintagerolex

One might suspect there is a buble in the market price of Paul Newman Daytona, but it has to be agreed that the design of the dial is unfailingly beautiful and has its rarity secured. #vintagedaytona #rolexvintage #rolexdaytona #rolex #vintagerolex #vintageluxurywatch #jamtanganvintage #rolexpaulnewman #paulnewman #paulnewmandaytona #vintagewatches #vintagewatch
