As the pinnacle of Rolex's classic four-digit Daytona series, Ref. 6265 "Big Red" was born between 1971 and 1988. It is the brand's last generation of manual-winding chronographs, equipped with an optimized Valjoux 727 movement, with a vibration frequency increased to 21,600 times/hour and an excellent accuracy of 357. Its iconic design includes a 37mm case, a metal tachymeter bezel, and the striking red "DAYTONA" above the 6 o'clock position on the dial (the origin of the name "Big Red").
This "Black Sigma" version features a black main dial with a silver-white sub-dial, and ? symbols on both sides of the "T SWISS T" logo, symbolizing that the hour markers and hands are made of 18K gold, highlighting the luxurious details of watchmaking craftsmanship in the 1970s. The screw-locking crown and chronograph buttons (Triplock system) increase the water resistance to 100 meters, combining practicality with classic aesthetics. As a recognized representative of the ?Oyster Daytona? in the collecting world, its rarity, historical status and design that blends retro and modern make it one of the ultimate goals for watch collectors.
