With box and outer packaging.
Reference 6200 is one of the rarest and most desirable Rolex Submariner models ever made. Its large case featuring the rounded case back and generously proportioned "Brevet" crown lend it a very masculine and sporty look. The present example features an original and unrestored "Explorer-type" dial, defined by its bold 3, 6, 9 numerals. Furthermore this example here confirms scholarship stating that the original version of reference 6200 did neither feature the Submariner designation nor the depth rating.
An extremely appreciated fact is that the original hands are still preserved, easily identifiable by their extended length.
Few sports watches have such iconic status amongst collectors like a beautifully aged reference 6200. This example is one of the best specimens ever offered at auction.
