Lot Essay

ßReference 6036ß

Reference 6036, the third generation of the celebrated "Dato Compax" Oyster triple calendar chronograph model ever presented by Geneva's "crowned" watch manufacturer, was available with various dial layouts, cased mainly in yellow gold and in stainless steel.

The present watch with an attractively refinished black dial is an opportunity not to be missed to acquire an example of reference 6036 to be worn daily. The case was preserved in very good condition with the definition to the bezel and lugs that is especially crisp after nearly 60 years of life.

Various examples of reference 6036 are described and illustrated in I Cronografi Rolex - La Leggenda, Pucci Papaleo Editore, pp. 380 - 401.
