1:1 “The Legend” Rolex Daytona Ref. 6263 Replica Watches Wholesale In Gold With A Paul Newman Lemon Dial — One Of Only Three In The World
This is a big deal. An ultra-rare Rolex “Paul Newman” Daytona (aka PND) ref. 6263 with a “Lemon” dial in an 18K gold Oyster case has surfaced to the auction block. This 1969 vintage Rolex is one of only three in this exact configuration ever known to have appeared in public. When this very AAA US replica watches emerged for the first time in 2013 at an auction in Geneva, it caused a sensation. It was fittingly dubbed “The Legend” due to its fabled existence. In under a decade, this grail watch in outstanding condition is now in the hands of Christie’s for a good estimate of CHF/US$3-5 million, no less!
The Legend
The Legend is part of the Rare Watches Christie’s Geneva Live Sale to be held on November 7th, 2022. The auctioneer has every trace of provenance to expect this exceptional piece to set the house on fire. To begin with, back in 2013, The Legend came out of nowhere to set a world record for any high quality fake Rolex Daytona watches sold at auction. It has subsequently been acquired twice for distinguished private collections to uphold the pedigree.
The proven track record
We spoke to Rémi Guillemin, Head of Watches at Christie’s Geneva, the man who procured this extremely rare perfect Rolex replica watches from a private collection in Europe. According to Guillemin, the fact that this fresh-to-market piece fetched CHF 841,300 in 2013 was absolutely mind-blowing when compared to the top-performing PNDs selling for around CHF100K at that time. And given the latest headline-grabbing PND auction results, Guillemin is confident it will meet or even exceed the estimate. Needless to say, we will be in for yet another bidding spectacle in the Christie’s saleroom in November.
The desirability stakes
So what’s so special about this piece? I’m sure we need no more ink to explain the desirability of the Rolex Paul Newman Daytona copy watches for sale. If you are at a loss, head over to RJ’s article on why it matters here. And then we’re down to the few references that we can call a PND — 6239, 6241, 6262, 6263, 6264, and 6265. To be clear, out of these Swiss made replica Rolex Daytona watches, only those that carry the “exotic dial” configuration are regarded as Paul Newman Daytonas. The easiest way to differentiate one is to look at the sub-dials. They will feature markers with small squares at the ends and an Art-Deco-style font.
Now that we know only a small subset of those references are PNDs, think about how much smaller that sub-subset becomes when we talk about the gold version. And a Lemon dial? We are getting to the top of the pyramid. The “Lemon” nickname refers to the rich yellow hue of the background color, which is very distinctive from the cream or champagne dials we usually see. And The Legend has that exact Lemon dial, featuring three black registers with white graphics.
The rarest of the rare
To give you a reference, we covered a super-rare Lemon-dialed PND here back in June at another auction. That example went for a cool US$2 million. But compared to it, The Legend is even more mystical for two reasons. First, while almost all yellow gold PNDs come with pump pushers, The Legend is one of three known examples to exist with screw-down pushers. The other two are also examples of the ref. 6263.
The mystique
Another reason this is an intriguing case is, well, the case. When you look at the dial text, it tells you it is luxury fake Rolex Oyster Cosmograph watches (ROC). That means it boasts the patented “waterproof” Oyster case construction with a screw-down bezel, crown, and case back. Although The Legend’s serial number 2330402 indicates that it predated the two other gold PND ref. 6262 and ref. 6264 from the same generation of the top super clone Rolex Daytona watches, those references were not housed in Oyster cases. Hence, those dials would only read ‘Rolex Cosmograph’. This vintage Rolex is powered by the higher-beat Valjoux caliber 727. It also has a black acrylic bezel that sets it apart from the previous generations using Bakelite bezels.
Show time
As Guillemin enthused on the phone, “There is certain magic and mystique around this best China replica watches that Rolex remains secretive about. I have spoken to all the previous owners and diligently cross-referenced all the sources to be wowed by the rarity of this watch. It is an absolute privilege to be entrusted with such a special watch and to present it in the upcoming sale.”
The Black Pumas’ Co-Founder Treats His Guitar Like He Treats His Perfect Online Rolex Replica Watches
Adrian Quesada is one half of the soulful psychedelic rock group Black Pumas. The music is infused with real analog energy that comes together via strong production from Quesada himself. He’s been a mainstay in the music world for almost two decades, both eponymously and via his other band, Grupo Fantasma. Through the years, he’s gone on to rack up eight Grammy nominations and one win. His music is layered with sounds that have a real throwback sensibility because he loves old things: vintage guitars, vintage recording equipment, and vintage best US replica watches.
“I’m fairly new to it but have a real obsession with high quality fake watches,” Quesada says from his recording studio in Austin, Texas. But he’s no stranger to obsessions. “I’m obsessive about things,” he says. “If I hear one artist’s obscure record they did, I’m going to stay up all night finding all of it.”
He actually realized top replica watches were his bag from comments made to him by friends. “I had a friend in college say, ‘You’re such an accessories guy’ and I was like ‘what does that mean?'”
After thinking about it, he realized there was some truth to the statement. “I always liked watches as a little bit of a statement piece,” Quesada says. “It wasn’t until recently that I went to try to build a collection.” His first love was the classic Timex Weekender which he used to wear constantly, and he would buy a new one every year.
“Now I’m just starting to learn more about watches,” he says. “I didn’t know much more than luxury copy Rolex and Cartier watches. Now I like learning more.”
It seems he’s taking a deeper approach to his early steps as a collector. “I love the power of a statement you can make with such a small accessory,” Quesada says. “Even musically I think that translates. I love that approach, not overdoing anything and kind of making people come to you and notice those things.”
Rolex Datejust Replica Watches
There’s no denying the power of an heirloom. In this case, one family watch served as the starting point for Quesada’s future collecting journey.
“I think what really sent me down the rabbit hole was this watch that my dad gave me,” Quesada says of his Swiss movements replica Rolex Datejust watches. “I always remember my dad telling me how my mom’s father gave him a Rolex off his wrist at a party. He would always show me that AAA Rolex super clone watches.”
Quesada remembers looking at it fondly as a child and has vivid memories of his father wearing it. “Years ago, he gave it to me and said ‘I want you to have it,'” he says. “And now I just think, I have 1:1 wholesale Rolex fake watches – that’s crazy.”
It took time for him to come to grips with the fact though, that he owned Swiss made Rolex replica watches. “I wore this watch for a long time,” he says. “It meant so much to me that I didn’t want to wear it daily so I’d go back to my little Timex Weekender and only wear this for special occasions, but now it’s just classic. The older I got I appreciated that this could be a daily watch.”
Of course, everything is circumstantial. And as much as he’d love to wear this daily, his life doesn’t allow for it. “I travel so much on tour that it feels a bit precarious to bring it with me,” he says somberly. “I’ve definitely forgotten things in a hotel and I wouldn’t know what to do if I lost this. It’s one thing to lose something expensive and another to lose something that was passed down two generations. For that reason, this isn’t my touring China fake watches.”
