Rolex made the transition from simple sprung pump chronograph pushers to water resistant screw down pushers, earning the Oyster addition to the dial and entering the Daytona a place in the Water resistant part of their production. This reference with its bakelite bezel was made for a short period before being replaced by the 6263.
The Rolex Daytona continues to be among the most sought after vintage watches on the market today. The bold contrast between the dial colour and the subsidiary dials makes this model instantly recognisable and as such it has long been lauded as a design icon.
