Description
The Rolex reference 6238 chronograph is a so called “Pre Daytona”, and has a simple elegance that was lost to the more sporty appearance of the Daytona models. This chronograph dates to 1964. The black dial is a big deal. There are lots and lots and lots of silver dial 6238s for every original black dial 6238. You are looking at one of Rolex collecting’s biggest prizes, and it won’t last!
Stainless steel case measures 36mm diameter by 13.5mm thick. Crystal is plastic. Screw down crown is original and is operating smoothly. Round pump style chronograph pushers are original and are operating perfectly. Case condition is mint+.
Dial is original and untouched black with sunken subdials, applied indices and original hands – all in mint condition.
Movement is the manual winding Rolex Caliber 72B with 17 jewels and column wheel construction. Movement is very clean and running well. All chronograph functions return to their respective zero positions perfectly. Inside case back is stamped ‘6238’. Serial number 1077XXX dates production of the watch to 1964.
Watch is on a Rolex leather strap with Rolex steel buckle.
