Not sure I’ve seen a dial look that silver on a 6265/3. Also, the pushers don’t look quite right, in the photos anyway. Maybe it’s just the harsh lighting.

Make sure you see the movement and have the watch fully authenticated.

Thanks for your comments. Yes it looks silver than the other yellowish silver. Not sure if it is because of different aging conditions. For the pushers, could you provide more details how to identify if it is legit or not? Thanks.

Close to mk2 but not quite IMO.
But as stated better clear photos could help.

The pushers look too wide at the base, but not sure. Something just looks a little off. Also, for a 7.4 serial (1982ish), I believe Rolex had already introduced the other style of pushers, with the lines around the tops, but it's close.

Do you have photos showing the movement?

Here's my 6.0 Daytona. I realize it's a couple of years older, but there are some stark differences when compared to your example. (Note that the other example above, by lovegmt73, has a service dial, although still very nice. Just pointing out for comparison purposes).

Thanks for your comments. I found in Japanese web. 74 seems like using MK2 pushers. What is your thought?

Can you get more photos of dial and esp. the DAYTONA on dial and the concentric circles and serifs on the subdials. There are two types of fonts/thickness/shade of Big Red ‘DAYTONA’ on the floating and non-floating of course.

Initial obs. Picture is awful so could be that, but the expected flat oval shape of letter O looks unusual, also the D shape and the distance between D and A looks too small and expected paint infill of the top left and bottom right of N looks low, and the gap between first and last letters ie DAYTONA to below subdial/register looks unequal.

The expected slightly different A’s do look ok though.

1985 is later than most of what I’ve read online for the switch to MK3 pushers. Either way, I’d recommend you read the info on the link below while researching:
