The First Rolex Daytona : Cosmograph Chronograph 6238

Introduced by Rolex in 1963, the first aptly titled Cosmograph Chronograph (ref. 6238) was produced in limited quantities, and officially began the “Daytona” series.  Although the original name in publication for the 6238 was “LeMans”, destiny obviously had other plans.
