Lot Essay

6262 and 6264 are the last references of the Daytona with pump pushers. Equipped with cal. 727 and a stainless steel bezel, 6262 had the shortest production period, from late 1960 to around 1972, among all the manual-winding Daytona. The present watch, fitted with an exotic "Paul Newman" dial, further enhances its rarity.
