Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce you to some recommended watches!
Today we have a rare vintage Turn-O-Graph!

Rolex Turn-O-Graph
Reference 6202 Serial 95 (manufactured around 1953)
Cal.A260 FF50 US Jubilee case back 53.4
Accessories: Main unit only
SOLD OUT!!

The first Turn-O-Graph "Ref. 6202" appeared in 1953

This rare model is said to be the origin of Rolex's sports models, as it was the first Rolex to feature an Oyster case with a rotating bezel.

The bidirectional rotating bezel rotates and returns to zero,
Zero is traced to the letter "O"
It was named "TURN-O-GRAPH."
 

The case diameter is a small 35mm and features the thickness typical of semi-bubble watches.

This is what it looks like from the side.
The plump back cover is adorable.

Turn-O-Graph has several dial variations.
The individual we are introducing this time has a chronometer notation at the 6 o'clock position, a turn-on-graph logo, and
The dial has three lines of text.

Even so,
This model has a honeycomb dial and
Dials with separate Oyster and Perpetual notations, etc.
The dial variations are really varied and interesting.

The three-line dial shown here is highly rare,
This is a dial that you don't see very often.

The gold hands also add a great atmosphere and look really cool!

The fact that it is equipped with pencil-shaped hour and minute hands and a dot-tipped second hand is a big plus.

The mirror dials of the 1950s were influenced by radium luminous material.
A notable feature is that many of these watches have a matte finish that has been aged throughout the dial.

This dial also shows signs of aging typical of its age,
The aging of this 1950s mirror is tasteful and attractive.

The radium luminous material has also discolored nicely.

The bezel is equipped with a red top insert with an inner dot.

This insert also shows a green hue over time,
The atmosphere is outstanding!!

The condition is age-appropriate with some scratches from use,
There are no major scratches and the condition is good.

The middle case is not overly finished.

The bracelet is the popular US Jubilee.

Of course there is some wear, but the condition is good.

Wrist shot!!
It fits comfortably on the wrist and is a very stylish model that allows you to enjoy the unique vintage feel and small size!

The first Oyster Perpetual with a rotating bezel, Ref. 6202
The dial has aged to create a unique atmosphere over time, and the pencil hands have a worn look.
This is a masterpiece packed with the charm of 1950s vintage, including a dot second hand at the tip.
The real thing is even cooler than the photo!! 
Although this is a model for connoisseurs, it is a highly recommended vintage piece with a strong presence!
Overhaul has also been completed at our affiliated workshop.
