Rolex Daytona 6263 ‘Big Red’ Steel Silver Dial

The Rolex ‘Big Red’ Daytona is one of the most iconic watches ever made. This vintage model features a silver dial with black sub-dials, and it’s powered by a Rolex-caliber 727 movement.  One of the defining characteristics of the reference Rolex Daytona 6263 is its black acrylic bezel with a tachymeter scale. Throughout the history of the Cosmograph Daytona, most references have been fitted with metallic bezels, however the black acrylic bezel on the reference 6263 adds a ring of dark color around the face of the watch, significantly changing the overall aesthetic and giving it a slightly larger appearance than its metal bezel counterparts.  The Rolex ‘Big Red’ Daytona is a true classic.
