This reference is distinguished by its screw-down chronograph pushers, which increased water resistance compared to earlier pump-pusher models, and a matching gold tachymeter bezel. It utilizes the manual-wind Valjoux-based Caliber 727, a COSC-certified movement known for its reliability. Collectors prioritize this reference for its transitional role as one of the final manual-wind Daytonas and for its specific dial configurations, such as the \"Sigma\" dials or those featuring the \"Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified\" text. On the current secondary market, these gold examples typically command prices in the low-to-mid six-figure range, depending on condition and provenance. A notable variant is the \"Paul Newman\" dial configuration, which significantly increases value; a 14k gold 6265 \"The Unicorn\" once achieved a record auction price exceeding 5.9 million dollars.", "score": 199}]}
