More information
Launched in the late 1960s, references 6263 and 6265 replaced the first Oyster Cosmograph model, the 6240. These two references were produced together and differed only in the type of tachymeter bezel they could mount, black acrylic for ref 6263 and steel for ref 6265.
This exceptional reference 6265 has all the features one would look for in a Cosmograph Daytona. Preserved in splendid condition, it features the coveted “Big Red” Daytona dial. The dial is immaculate, with just a few signs of wear, and all luminous markers are present and intact, perfectly matched to the hands. This is an extremely wearable and timeless example for those looking for an iconic Cosmograph Daytona.
