Rolex Floating Big Red Daytona Reference 6263

I’m excited to offer this amazing Rolex Daytona reference 6263. This particular example features the earlier floating “Big Red” dial which commands attention upon first glance. This watch is from circa 1978, with a serial number in the 5.5 million range.

The case is lightly polished, but is strong. The case measures 37mm in diameter. It is paired on a C+I bracelet from circa 1978 that was probably sold on the watch. The movement is a manual wind calibre 727 made by Valjoux. The watch comes from the family of the original owner. He received it as a retirement gift as a teacher.

The watch does not come with box and papers. We do not know the service history, but it is running well. It just passed a water resistance test of 3 bar. It has the original crystal. We can replace it with a TrueDome if the buyer would like.
