With Rolex original Guarantee/instruction manual and original fitted green presentation box.
For collectors obsessed with perfection, this reference 6262 cannot be surpassed in terms of condition since it is, as simple as that, brand new, unworn and never serviced. In fact, it still retains its green protective sticker to the case back and all elements of case and bracelet do not show any wear. Reference 6262 is already by itself a rarity, the present specimen in time warp condition is a one in a lifetime opportunity for the perfectionist. For Rolex aficionados fascinated by history and provenance, this Daytona is as relevant and meaningful to the firm's DNA as few other watches can possibly be. In fact, it belonged to no-one lesser than the celebrated Bobby Unser. And what original owner can add more weight and (petrol)-flavour than a celebrated racing-car driver to a Rolex Daytona, the iconic chronograph named after the world famous track?
Superlatives are to be used with care and never in an inflationary manner. The present Cosmograph Daytona however deserves attributes ranging from "one-in-a-lifetime-opportunity" to "historical" since only a handful of Rolex watches exemplify so beautifully all ingredients which are so meaningful to watch collectors: maker and model, aesthetics and mechanics, rarity, condition, history and provenance.
