A classic favourite among collectors, the present reference 6262 is distinguished by its highly coveted black ‘Paul Newman’ exotic dial, dramatically contrasted by white subsidiary registers. With its distinctive typography, contrasting colour scheme and immediately recognisable design, this striking configuration perfectly embodies the aesthetic that has made ‘Paul Newman’ Daytonas legendary among Rolex collectors.
Few vintage chronographs have achieved the status of the manually wound Rolex Cosmograph Daytona. Produced across numerous references and dial variations, the model has become one of the most coveted vintage sports watches, with examples fitted with the so-called ‘Paul Newman’ exotic dial occupying a particularly celebrated position within the collecting world.
Reference 6262
Produced for only a brief period between 1970 and 1972, reference 6262 is among the rarest of the manually wound Rolex Daytonas. Together with its sister reference 6264, it represents the final generation of the model fitted with traditional round pump chronograph pushers, before Rolex introduced screw-down pushers with references 6263 and 6265.
Reference 6262 was available in stainless steel as well as 14k and 18k gold and is distinguished by its polished metal bezel engraved with a tachymeter scale. Its combination of short production, classic pump-pusher architecture and, in the present watch, the highly desirable black ‘Paul Newman’ dial makes it a particularly compelling example from the evolution of the vintage Daytona.
