Vintage Rolex Oyster Chronograph Ref 6234 Pre-Daytona
Description
Why We Love This Watch This vintage Rolex Oyster Chronograph ref. 6234 captures the spirit of Rolex's early racing heritage—long before the Daytona name took the world by storm. Often referred to as the “Pre-Daytona,” this reference is a rare and elegant bridge between Rolex’s early chronograph designs and the icons that would follow. The ivory dial, complemented by blue seconds and classic sub-dials, offers a subtle yet striking contrast that only gets better with time. The stainless steel Oyster rivet bracelet is a perfect match, and the inclusion of a Bobs Watches tan leather strap with a Rolex tang buckle adds vintage character and versatility. Powered by the manual-winding Caliber 72, this chronograph is as much about history as it is about craftsmanship. For collectors and vintage aficionados, this is a true gem from Rolex’s golden era.
