Rolex 6202 Turnograph




One of my 50s watches which is extremely comfortable to wear because of the expandible riveted bracelet that fits closely to the wrist. It has a mint radium gilt dial with matching hands and all original bezel and insert. I daresay a nicer specimen will be very hard to find as most of them would have lost either their inserts or gilt dials. This watch dates to 1953/1st Q 1954 and is thought to be the forerunner of the Rolex Submariner.
