One of the last two hand-wound Daytonas Rolex built with pump pushers. It is mechanically the same watch as the 6262 sold alongside it — the only difference is the bezel, black acrylic with a tachymeter scale on the 6264 against an engraved metal one on the 6262. Both were short-lived: Rolex soon moved the chronograph line to the screw-down-pusher Oyster cases of the 6263 and 6265, which then ran for seventeen years.

What the specification implies
—The 6264 was fitted with pump pushers. Screw-down pushers belong to the later references 6263 and 6265.
—Its case is not an Oyster case, so 6264 dials read 'Cosmograph' without the word 'Oyster'.
—The bezel is a black acrylic insert. The otherwise-identical reference with an engraved metal tachymeter bezel is the 6262.
Common questions
When was the Rolex 6264 produced?
The 6264 was produced from 1970 to 1972.
What movement does the Rolex 6264 use?
The Rolex 6264 runs the Valjoux 72, a manual movement.
How do I check a Rolex 6264 with Watch Safe?
Look up the watch's serial number in the Watch Safe registry to see whether a record exists or a theft flag is attached. A registry search identifies records for a specific serial; it does not authenticate the watch. Authentication is performed in person by an independent expert authenticator, and Watch Safe records and publishes the result.
