Featuring a champagne dial with gold graphics inside the sunken subsidiary registers, this timepiece was one of the most luxurious Cosmographs available on the market during the late 1960s. Glamorous and eye-catching, it is yet another variant of the beloved “Paul Newman” model.

Reference 6239 was hardly ever cased in gold. During the reference's life span, approximately 300 examples were cased in yellow gold, which is quite astounding when one takes into account the model’s approximate 14,000 unit production run.

The dial is particularly impressive as all the luminous dots remain intact and full. The larger and slightly slanted “T Swiss T” designation at 6 o’clock is correct for the 1.7 million serial number. Furthermore, the champagne dial has aged gracefully, showing barely any sign of aging. The gold graphics are idiosyncratic of reference 6241 and 6239. Later generation examples would feature white graphics inside the counters.
Still retaining its factory sticker, the case is equally exceptional, and the numbers between the lugs are crisp and sharp. With a yellow gold bracelet, it provides a different look from its stainless steel “Paul Newman” siblings.
