6238

Sold

This is a sublime example of the legendary Rolex 6238 “Pre-Daytona”, in perfect condition, with a soleil dial that is as perfect as a dial of a timepiece from around 1965 can be! This one is probably untouched with its perfect soleil finish and superbly aged lume plots matching the hands as perfect as it can be. A real feast for the eyes. And then the case, in extraordinary condition too! If ever polished, only very slightly. It still retains its super strong proportions as on the first day when it left the factory. The watch was destined for the US american market as it has the import mark “ROW” on the balance bridge. It comes on a US bracelet which is later from 79. This example of a 6238 “Pre-Daytona” Chronograph is certainly a great addition for every distinguished gentleman collector, as the condition of this example is really perfect, MINT and a real feast for the eyes.
