This is Kaneko from Commit Ginza!
Today I will talk about the international market situation for hand-wound Daytonas.
This week, Phillips and Christie 's auctions were held in Hong Kong.
It is also known as the main sale of the international auctions held in May and November of the year.
In both May and November, the event will be held in Geneva at the beginning of the month and in Hong Kong at the end of the month.
It is no exaggeration to say that the winning bid price and popularity there will influence the watch market and conditions thereafter.
Today, I will briefly explain the hand-wound Daytona with a four-digit reference.
Due to the limited production numbers and popularity, the so-called four-digit Daytonas are traded at high prices, but their prices have increased by 2-4 times from 2012-2015 to 2018.
The price increase was especially steep in 2017-2018.
The price of hand-wound Daytonas, which continued to soar, underwent price adjustments between the winter of 2018 and 2019, and prices have since stabilized compared to their peak.
If prices rise too quickly, the supply from those wanting to sell will increase and exceed the demand from those wanting to buy.
Then the price goes down. However, there is still demand at the lower price range, so the number of units sold gradually decreases and the price goes up again, which is typical for popular watches.
From here, we will tell you about the Ref. 6265 currently being sold by Commit, as well as the market situation for watches of the same age and condition.
In Geneva in November 2019 and in Hong Kong this week, prices of hand-wound Daytonas were rising, suggesting a revival.
Below are the winning bid results for Ref. 6265.
*If you bring the item into Japan, consumption tax will be added to the winning bid amount below.
Think of it as the "price excluding tax".

This is a big Daytona with a large DAYTONA designation.
This is a floating dial , which is relatively common in this era (serial numbers in the 55 range), with the DAYTONA inscription floating above the subdial at the 6 o'clock position.
The luminous material appears dirty in some areas and there is a chipped spot, but the dial is in very good condition.
*The hands have been changed to Luminova specifications, but the overall look has not been affected.
The pusher comes with a genuine replacement pusher.
The bezel is in good condition!
The future developments of the hand-wound Daytona Ref. 6265 are sure to be exciting.
We have set the price at an attractive price, so if you are looking for one, please consider it.
For a manual-wound Daytona, do the dials, pushers, bezels, cases, etc. match in condition and age?
Also, since the accessories and history of the item will affect the price, it is important to shop at a store that has real knowledge.
In the future, we will open a vintage website to delve deeper into the details.
We will also be talking about the international market situation, so please look forward to it.
