Captivating Experience at PHOTO NEXT 2025
The highly anticipated photography and video exhibition, PHOTO NEXT 2025, took place on June 10-11, drawing significant attention from industry professionals. A notable moment from the event was when Mr. and Mrs. Kato from Ishii Kogyo Co., Ltd. and Pro Shop Toei-do showcased their exquisite pair of watches: the Nobunaga Daytona and a Harry Winston timepiece.
The Nobunaga Daytona
The Nobunaga Daytona is a unique reference in the ROLEX DAYTONA collection, specifically the Ref.6263 model. It carries a special serial number,
6412345, which corresponds with the birth and death dates of the famous samurai leader, Oda Nobunaga. Notably, this particular model was sold at an astounding price of approximately 2.8 billion yen at a global auction site specializing in ROLEX watches,
Chrono24. This remarkable sum speaks volumes about the watch’s rarity and investment potential, making it a sought-after item by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
