An Introduction to the World's Second Most Expensive Rolex: The Paul Newman Daytona
From 2017 5 13 to 14, Phillips in association with Bacs & Russo held the Geneva Watch Auction: FIVE. On 5 13, the Ref.6062 "Bao Dai" once again setRolexa watch auction record. On 5 14, Lot 237, the Ref.6263 Oyster Paul Newman yellow gold chronograph known as "The Legend", fetched 3,722,000 CHF (equivalent to approximately 2,584 CNY), making it the highest-sellingRolexDaytona watch.
Overview of the Rolex Paul Newman Daytona
The Ref.6263 Oyster Paul Newman yellow gold chronograph featured in this auction (with only three known to exist) features a lemon dial, dates from circa 1969, and carried an estimate of 80 to 160 million CHF. It is easy to understand why such an extraordinarily beautiful timepiece generated so much attention. The watch sparked fierce competition, and just before Aurel Bacs brought down the hammer, the winning bidder even decided to leave the salesroom, though he turned back in time to hear confirmation of his winning bid—perhaps simply unable to wait to touch his new acquisition.
"The Legend" lived up to its name; this Ref.6263 Oyster Paul Newman yellow gold chronograph not only set a Daytona auction record but also became the second highest-selling Rolex watch at public auction (far surpassing the Rolex split-seconds chronograph 4113). This means that within a mere twelve months, Phillips sold three of the world's highest-selling Rolex watches, with the first and second places emerging within 24 hours of each other.
