Help me identify this pre-Daytona Cosmograph



Apologies for the poor photo, but I’ve narrowed this beauty down to probably a 1963 or 1964 6239 (not mine, so can’t access the serial), but I’m a little thrown off by the screw down pushers and the fact that I can’t seem to find any images of a comparable 6239 with all of the same writing on the dial, paired with screw-down pushers. Any specifics would be greatly appreciated.

The pic you see is on an elderly gentleman who is the original owner and has been wearing it daily since purchase!

Thanks

Pushers replaced during service?

How did you gather it was early 60s? Looks early 70s just like this 6265 that Jedly suggested

My bad. The reference I was using misled me. I thought the word Daytona always appeared after 1965. Your feedback is immensely helpful. Thank you, gents.
