When we hear about Paul Newman in the watch world, we immediately think of the Rolex reference 6239 with an exotic dial. But another watch the famous actor wore for a long time was the reference 6263 from 1980 with a black 'big red' dial meaning: the large red 'Daytona' inscription. The example we present is precisely this variant, preserved in splendid condition and coming from the original family. The Phenix-Soleil engraving appears on the back and represents a gift from this insurance company to the best agents. A truly noteworthy collector's item.
