OK, missed that. Actually, now you mention it, I do vaguely recall threads on other forums saying this Daytona was up for sale.
Or maybe you have read about the upcoming auction of another Daytona owned by Paul Newman?

I'm sure you guys have seen this, but this is very interesting. To me at least. The orange Autavia especially so as it would be a holy grail (Will NEVER happen). As usual, DC has covered it well here.

....if ever there was an opportunity to own one of your grails, this could be it.....👍
The orange Autavia is listed as a 1979 watch with a calibre 11 movement. Very unlikely, no?
Interesting reminder from Peter Moller (at OTD), whose orange-dial Autavia we featured a while back, that his watch also has a prototype high-beat 28,000bph Calibre 11 movement. Makes is more likely that this was a complete proto watch rather than being only a dial that was retro-fitted to a standard case and movement.
