Production of reference 6234 was relatively limited due to the model's short manufacture period. Since the reference’s launch in 1955, the model featured a variety of case and dial combinations. In production for a very short time, Rolex ceased production in 1961 and replaced it with the reference 6238. Fitted with a smooth bezel, the tachymeter scale is most notably printed on the dial - a feature shared with its successor, reference 6238.
The present watch, cased in stainless steel, is preserved in overall excellent condition. It features a charismatic dial that has aged gracefully over time to a warm silver/ivory tone. The luminous dots remain intact and have aged with warm patina. Furthermore, the case retains its crisp edges and facets.

Swiss | 1905Founded 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.
