This magnificent original untouched champagne dial with lemony overtones, features applied golden hour markers, contrasting black color subdials with guilloche and golden baton hands.

The 6241 reference is very similar to its 6239 predecessors in most respects. But, an oddity to this model is that it was available with pump pushers or screw-down chronograph buttons. It is also this model that the word "Daytona" makes its debut on the dial, and still takes up prominent residence there to this very day! Collectors seem to prefer this model, as they are rarer than the 6239, so expect them to command a better price than its older cousins, the 6240 and 6239.

The Paul Newman Rolex Daytona has indeed earned its reputation as one of the most highly sought-after and collected vintage Rolex watches in history.
