Launched in 1953, the reference 6202 started a new era for wristwatches, setting down the foundation for Rolex sports watches, including the introduction of the rotatable bezel. The present Turn-o-Graph example features the sought after honeycomb dial and has a very strong reading under the Geiger counter.
