Paul Newman’s Rolex ‘Big Red’ Daytona Ref. 6263

Paul Newman personally owned this later screw-down-pusher Daytona, known for the red Daytona signature above the lower sub-dial. It remained with the Newman family before Phillips sold it on 12 December 2020 for $5,475,000 to an anonymous private collector. The object is individually identifiable rather than merely an example of its model, which is important for Arcarel’s object-level record. The cited Phillips source supplies the key provenance, event or institutional facts used here. No unnamed buyer or owner has been inferred, and fields not established by the source are left blank. Its significance comes from the combination of the physical watch and the documented people, events, institutions or market history attached to this specific specimen.
