Paul Newman was once the most bankable movie star in the world and in the watch world when his 1968 Rolex Daytona sold for $15.5 million. After 12 minutes of bidding, the watch was sold to a bidder on the telephone, setting a new record for the highest price ever achieved for a wristwatch Newman’s own ‘Paul Newman’ Daytona—a gift from his wife, actress Joanne Woodward—has long been considered the Holy Grail among watch collectors. “Many people are saying this is the greatest watch on the planet,” said Geoff Hess, a vintage Rolex collector ”This watch appeals to people way beyond the watch world. I don’t recall a watch that has roots and ties in so many [collecting] communities, and it’s an incredibly potent mix,” said Hess. ‘It of course attracts those who love and admire motor sports and cars, it also appeals to people who love Hollywood memorabilia. It’s also a piece of Americana, so it appeals to the American history community.” The Rolex Daytona has an unusual “exotic” dial design, and was dubbed the ‘Paul Newman’ in the 1980s because he was always seen wearing it, according to Paul Boutros, Phillips Senior Vice President and Head of Watches for the Americas.
