Lot Essay

This endangered species strap is shown for display purposes only and is not for sale. The watch will be supplied with a calf leather strap.

The present Daytona is distinguished by the highly attractive diamond and ruby-set dial and its well-preserved overall condition. Only a handful of this highly appealing Daytona model are thought to have been made and very few have appeared in public, rendering the present example a trophy for the aficionado of rare timepieces.

The classic combination of the white gold case and diamond-set dial is one of the most beautiful variants ever created for the Daytona line.
