Rolex Oyster, "Pre-Daytona", Ref. 6238, rare light gray dial, with radiation, circa 1963.

Pre-Daytona with Radiation, which was produced only for a very limited period before the silver sunray dial of Ref.6238, which appeared from 1962 to 1964.

The gray color dial, rare among Rolex watches,  has a unique hue, and the combination of wedge indexes and alpha hands is a very rare gem that shows the qualities of a 1950s watch. The "underbar" dial with tritium luminescence of the same design in the same year has also been confirmed, but the "non-underbar" dial with radium luminescence has further increased the rarity of this piece. It comes with an Oyster rivet bracelet.
