The present reference 6234 is from the very last generation and features the appealing "underline" dial. Connoisseurs appreciate that in the early 1960s, a small number of this chronograph model was fitted with dials where the "Anti-Magnetic" was underlined.

Different versions of reference 6234 are described and illustrated in I Cronografi Rolex - La Leggenda, Pucci Papaleo Editore, pp. 254-277.
