Specialist note

The present reference 6202 is a fine example of Rolex's first Turn-O-Graph model, fitted with the rare and much sought after white honeycomb dial. Introduced to the market in 1954, the Turn-O-Graph is characterized by a graduated revolving black bezel with a red triangle at the zero position.
