Rolex Daytona, Paul Newman, and 24 Hours of Daytona: Three things that have had a massive impact on the world of watches, cars, and collecting—and all of them collide in this ‘Zenith’ Daytona, marking the halfway point in our 2023 #SothebysWrapped🎁 countdown to your favorite watch moment at Sotheby's this year. Since 1992, winners of the '24 Hours of Daytona' race have been awarded a special presentation Rolex Daytona, engraved on the back with the logo of the race and typically the name of the winner, their position, and the year. Paul Newman won his GT1 class at the Daytona24 at the age of 70—a world record that still stands to this day for the oldest man to win. Presented to Newman in 1995, this watch is inscribed on the back ‘Paul Newman, Rolex Motorsport Man of the Year’ and sold directly from the Newman family as part of The World of Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman Collection at #SothebysNewYork in June. #PaulNewman #Rolex #RolexZenithDaytona Photos: timetidewatches
