Renowned watch artist Tamás Fehér, featured at the ABTW Store, unveils his latest horological masterpiece, a homage to the iconic Rolex Daytona 6265 Big Red. Fehér’s signature black and white rendering, capturing impeccable details, elevates the unattainable beauty of this vintage timepiece to larger-than-life proportions. To enhance the motorsport essence, Fehér custom-made a checkered flag, seamlessly integrated into the entirely hand-drawn artwork, available for purchase at the ABTW Store.
Inspired by his encounter with a Rolex Daytona 6265 “Big Red” in May 2024, Fehér shares, “Upon seeing this extraordinary replica watch, I decided to create a drawing, turning my dream watch project into reality. The inaccessibility due to budget constraints and the rarity of these vintage Daytonas intensified the significance of this endeavor. Named the Daytona Edition II Project, this drawing mirrors my 2021 piece of the 6263, and the checkered racing flag emphasizes its authentic racing heritage.”
The resulting artwork is a striking and tasteful celebration of the replica Rolex Daytona 6265, whether you own a modern or vintage Daytona or any motorsport-themed chronograph. Fehér’s meticulous attention to detail, from reflections on the case and bezel to the subtleties of subdial grooves and the “Big Red” text in red, magnifies this spectacular timepiece for unparalleled appreciation.
For enthusiasts eager to own a piece of this tribute, the “Tribute to the Big Red 6265” is available in easy-to-frame sizes—A3 (30×42 cm), B2 (50×70 cm), and B1 (70×100 cm)—priced at $149, $199, and $249, respectively. Additionally, a convenient $15 FedEx Priority Shipping option ensures delivery to nearly every corner of the globe.
In essence, Fehér’s artwork transcends the boundaries of conventional appreciation, offering a unique opportunity to bring the elegance of the Rolex Daytona 6265 into your home or office. The marriage of art and horology is beautifully encapsulated in this tribute, inviting enthusiasts to explore the allure of one of the defining pieces in the world of racing chronographs.
