A pic of an exremely rare Rolex Chronograph model no. 6234

Hey everyone

I just stumbled across a super rare vintage Rolex chronograph and I thought I should share it with you all. I have never seen anything like it before, it doesn't even say Daytona on the dial and its not the Paul Newman version.

What I see is really special about it is that the tachometer and telemeter going around the watch dial are not engraved on the bezel but are inside the crystal. That's very different from the Daytona today, its similar to several IWC chronographs I've seen before.

This model is the so called "Brown color change" dial Rolex from the early 1960's. My question is, has anybody ever seen or heard about these chronographs before? They must be worth a fortune today.

**I cannot post the picture on here since its too large, but you can see it full size at the following link. It is a very large picture so it may take awhile to load**

Regards,
Jerome
