The production of Vintage Rolex 6202 Turn O Graph was discontinued in the early 60's because it was overshadowed of a wider acceptance of GMT's and Submariners in the market. I am showing you a Rare watch case of a Rolex 6202 Turn O Graph.
The ring bezel functions as it should.
This watch case was made on the fourth quarter of 1953 making this watch as one of the first Rolex Turn O graph being made and a watch worth collecting. The serial number of this case starts with 19. Again, I am not sharing the photo of the serial number for security reasons.
We cleaned the lip of the inner side of the outer case before we sold the case because some corrosion are starting to form on it. The thread on both the outer and the back cases are not damaged and function so well.
Both the model and the serial numbers can still be seen with a naked eye. The lugs are free of corrosion.
I have heard stories from old Rolex watch collectors here in the Philippines that during the popularity of Seiko watches in 1970's, Filipinos with Rolex Watches will replace their Rolex movements with Seiko movements! Some also threw away their Rolex Sports dials and replaced it with a Seiko Divers Dial! It is true and it is not a joke at all! Let us all start laughing! HAHAHA! No offense meant to Seiko, I am just being amused with my fellow Filipinos.
