Rolex Daytona Reference 6263 in 14k Gold Unpolished
The Daytona reference 6263 in gold with a black dial and black acrylic bezel is one of the most desirable vintage Rolex models, made even more special when it is in the rare and rosy 14k gold for the American market. This watch is in outstanding condition and the gold has developed a bit of oxidation making it even more of a rich rose gold color. The tritium luminous plots are in excellent condition and match the hands perfectly. The black acrylic bezel is original and is in outstanding condition while the crown and pushers appear to be the original 14k gold and the pushers are the original Mark 2 pushers. The watch is paired with a US-made Jubilee bracelet made of 14k gold. The watch measures approximately 37mm in diameter and the 14K gold case is unpolished. The watch dates to circa 1978.
The watch came from widow of original owner. The engraving on the back is part of a poem the husband wrote his wife. She gave it to him on 12-30-1978, as engraved on case back.
This is certainly a grail Daytona and grail watch.
It does not have the original box and papers.
