The Daytona 6263 at a glance
The 6263 is a discontinued Cosmograph Daytona with a hand-wound movement, the Valjoux 72-based Rolex calibre 727. It was made in stainless steel, 18k gold or 14k gold, and has a black acrylic tachymeter insert with a tachymeter scale running 50 to 200 units. Our catalog does not record its production years, because sources disagree on them.
Collectors call some examples the Big Red, after the red Daytona print on the dial. Some sources also use the name Paul Newman for 6263s with that exotic dial; our Paul Newman page is the 6239.
Where the 6263 price stands right now:
- Fair value now: $55,700–$116,000.
- Midpoint of recent market prices: $85,700.
- Newest observation: June 28, 2026.
- Observations behind the estimate: 27.
What affects the price
Case metal. The reference covers steel cases as well as 18k gold and 14k gold ones, and the metal changes what buyers pay. A listing should state it.
Dial. Exotic dials are excluded from our standard range, because they sell far apart from standard dials. Check any special dial with a specialist.
Originality. Original pushers, insert and hands matter for a watch of this age.
Condition. Ranges by condition (a condition shows a range only once it has enough results of its own):
- Unworn: not enough market data yet.
- Excellent: $62,600–$84,800.
- Good: not enough market data yet.
- Fair: not enough market data yet.
Retail reference. We don't show a list price for this reference, because we only publish one we can confirm from a source we can cite.
Recent movement. Change over the past year: -4.3% over 12 months.
Tips for buyers
- Confirm the reference 6263 between the lugs and the calibre 727 inside.
- Ask which parts have been replaced at a service.
- Have a specialist verify the dial before you pay.
- Compare the asking price with our fair-value range, and with the range for its condition where one is shown.
Tips for sellers
- State the case metal and dial, and which parts are original.
- Don't polish the case.
- Photograph the dial, insert, pushers and caseback in daylight.
- Use the published price data on this page as a starting point, and get more than one offer.
