That's what I suspected.

 

@martijnpWhat have you done to it? Stock or any mods?

 

 

Sorry guy's I don't have any info about this watch. Bought it without information. Maybe @Daytona1984 can clarify something about the watch? :)

I found an outstanding member on RWI (The Society) who has some epic builds of classic Daytona's.  He's building me one right now!  Yes, it is pricey, but it's going to be about as close to the real deal as I can get.

He has his own case that he sourced in Asia.  It'll be a 6263 with screw-down pushers.  The panda dial will have a special aging process done to it to give it a nice patina (not painted).

More details:

Gen crown

Gen acrylic 

NOS Valjoux 730

Gen 78350 bracelet

Bollen & Sons straight black leather band as well

 

The pic attached is his very own watch, which has a converted Valjoux movement to 727.  I could have the same, but it costs an extra $3K.  Mine won't have the Tiffany face either.

Much more recent update:

I actually purchased the watch that I had pictured in the above photo.  Only difference is I had the dial changed to a non-Tiffany since that is basically a 1-of-1.

 

The entire watch is gen except the case and the dial.  EVERYTHING else is gen - bezel, case back, pushers, crystal, crown, Valjoux 727, bracelet, etc.
