圖錄文章
First released in 1955, the Rolex Oyster Chronograph ref. 6234 is among one of the rarest and sought-after pre-Daytona references. The reference was succeeded by the ref. 6238, which became the last pre-Daytona model before the release of the ref. 6239.

The present example Rolex Oyster Chronograph ref. 6234 featuring a silver dial from circa 1959 is a handsome example of the rare model. Boasting an attractive overall and honest condition, it features a strong case with balanced lugs and crisp numbers in between the lugs that are original and engraved directly onto the satin-finished surface. The dial with blue telemeter scale and “Anti-Magnetic” signature is original and correct. Some general ageing on the dial is further complimented by its original luminous material on the dial and hands. Overall a nice decent example perfect to enjoy on the wrist.

Complete with its original guarantee and presentation box, it is a rare occasion that such example remains complete. Furthermore, the guarantee is stamped by a local Hong Kong authorised retailer. Certainly a special treat for vintage Rolex collectors of Hong Kong.

Rolex

Swiss | 1905
Founded in 1905 England by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis as Wilsdorf & Davis, it soon became known as the Rolex Watch Company in 1915, moving its headquarters to Geneva in 1919. Like no other company, the success of the wristwatch can be attributed to many of Rolex's innovations that made them one of the most respected and well-known of all luxury brands. These innovations include their famous "Oyster" case — the world's first water resistant and dustproof watch case, invented in 1926 — and their "Perpetual" — the first reliable self-winding movement for wristwatches launched in 1933. They would form the foundation for Rolex's Datejust and Day-Date, respectively introduced in 1945 and 1956, but also importantly for their sports watches, such as the Explorer, Submariner and GMT-Master launched in the mid-1950s.One of its most famous models is the Cosmograph Daytona. Launched in 1963, these chronographs are without any doubt amongst the most iconic and coveted of all collectible wristwatches. Other key collectible models include their most complicated vintage watches, including references 8171 and 6062 with triple calendar and moon phase, "Jean Claude Killy" triple date chronograph models and the Submariner, including early "big-crown" models and military-issued variants.
