Comments

The first screw down daytona reference 6240 are quite rare. Finding one with an original black dial turned brown, is extremely rare. Black to brown tropical dials are mostly found on oyster dials for 626X, further adding to the rarity of this tropical beauty. A great daytona for any serious collection.
