專家說明

Preceding the Cosmograph Daytona family of watches, the Oyster chronograph reference 6234 is one of Rolex's most timeless watches, effortlessly combining a sporty look with elegant, understated flair.

The present piece is offered in outstanding condition, the dial absolutely untouched, perfectly preserved and with the luminous material evenly aged to an attractive camel hue.The ROW stamp on the movement of this example indicates the American market as original destination for the piece, perfectly fitting the miles graduation of the scales.

Different examples of reference 6234 are illustrated in 100 Superlative Rolex Watches by John Goldberger, pp. 120-127, as well as in I Cronografi Rolex - La Leggenda, Pucci Papaleo Editore, pp. 254-276
