This design element made the watch instantly recognizable and highly sought after by collectors. Powered by the reliable Valjoux 722 movement, it functioned as a precision chronograph, favored by motorsport enthusiasts. The Reference 6241 'Paul Newman' has transcended its utilitarian roots to become one of the most desirable and valuable vintage Rolex watches, embodying the timeless allure of both the Daytona collection and the legendary actor who made it famous.
