The first Daytona "Ref. 6239" with a stainless steel tachymeter bezel, released in 1963

This is an early model known as the Non-Oyster, characterized by its non-screw pump pusher.

The individual we are introducing this time is a rare model that is rarely available in our store,
Please take a look!!

The dial of the Ref. 6239 goes as follows: no logo ⇒ small logo ⇒ big logo ⇒ normal logo (above the 12-hour counter)
It will change as follows.

The dial has the Daytona notation in white letters above the 12-hour counter.
The final black dial.

This dial is a black dial with silver lettering for the logo and minute lines.

Only the "DAYTONA" notation is printed in white letters,
When you look at the dial with the naked eye, the Daytona lettering appears strangely sky blue.
This is a rare dial known as "Blue Daytona."

It's a dial with a unique character that looks strangely blue despite the white letters.

Although the dial is lacking luminous material and has some darkening,
There is no noticeable damage, including the in-dial.
It is in very good condition for a model manufactured around 1969.

The chronograph hand and the sub-dial hand have been replaced in later years,
The atmosphere is not spoiled at all.

The luminous hour and minute hands have the same illumination response as the indexes.

The bezel is also perfectly aged.

The condition is good, with some scratches from use appropriate for the age, but no major scratches!

The middle case has a slight polished finish,
There is no excessive finishing!

The buckle of the bracelet has been replaced,

The rivet bracelet looks great on a 60s watch.

It's a sturdy rivet bracelet!

You have a great look on your face!!

Finally, a wrist shot!!
This is a super cool hand-wound Daytona with silver letters and sky blue DAYTONA inscription!
