116520 – Tribute to 6240
A unique Artisans de Genève variant of the contemporary Rolex Daytona was produced by the maker. It was a design that unambiguously pointed to the earlier Daytona 6240, while the treatment of the watch included a lot of manual polishing, and skeletonized movement design, as well as using vintage traces in the form of the watch. This specific item is considered to be one of the priciest ones because of its scarcity, exquisite craftsmanship, and deep connection to Rolex chronograph history.
The Tribute to 6240 is remarkably popular among men's watches because of its Daytona size and striking chronograph, but there are also some women watch collectors who like it for the same reason and especially for the artistic skills involved. Its well proportioned case and various strap choices make it easy to wear for all wrist sizes.
