Notes
This reference also came out with several different dial designs and this particular one here houses the sought-after “Big Red” dial, named so for the oversized red Daytona label arching over the sub-dial at 6 o’clock. This watch comes in excellent condition with a very clean dial, sharp case, finding one today isn’t terribly difficult but finding a good one is becoming tougher.The watch comes with original set (box, cardboard box, Rolex booklet, and original punched paper).
