Note du spécialiste

Rolex introduced the reference 6262 in the late 1960s with the updated caliber 727. It was one of the last chronograph references to be produced with push down buttons. It was available in stainless steel, 14k and 18k gold as well with the standard dial or a Paul Newman verison like the present example.

Reference 6262 is illustrated and described in Rolex Daytona - a legend is born by Carlo Pergola, Stefano Mazzariol, Giovanni Dosso, pp. 110-130.
