This Rolex classic with red Daytona lettering and white dial has never been worn, is brand new, was purchased from Hollfelder jewellers in 2014 and has been stored in a safe for the last 11 years. The accompanying guarantee card, which comes in a green Rolex leather card wallet is labelled with the country code 100 for Germany. The watch also comes with its original box, operating instructions, a booklet and a Rolex seal tag.
This steel Daytona came by its nickname "APH-Dial" because of the distinct gap in the word COSMOGR APH; today it is a highly coveted collector’s item, because only a very small number of this model were produced over a short production run.
