How to narrow the comparison

  1. Start with the reference, then use the recorded configurations to identify the bezel, dial and case that match the watch.
  2. Open the guide for its catalog notes, photographs and any attached source links. Treat ranges as context, not a valuation.
  3. For a specific offered watch, request reference markings, service records and replacement-part disclosures. A shared reference number alone does not establish matching condition or originality.

Reference sources and price evidence

0 distinct reference sources are attached to these 3 catalog entries. 3 entries have no attached reference source; treat their specifications and historical notes as catalog claims awaiting verification.

0 of 3 entries have attached price-source links. Dealer ranges, auction ranges and catalog estimates are separate data categories, not live offers or verified transaction results. Check each linked page for asking versus sold price, sale date, currency, fees and the actual configuration; a source link alone does not establish those details.

Photographs illustrate sourced examples. Image-source links identify their origin; they are not reference research, proof of authenticity or a statement of image rights. No physical inspection is represented here. Read the editorial and evidence method.

Collector Read

Compare the recorded differences within reference 6238.

The pre-Daytona chronograph: manual winding, pump pushers and a tachymeter printed on the dial rather than the bezel.

The comparison table keeps missing specifications visible. The catalog range span ($45,000 to $225,000) combines recorded ranges across configurations; it is not an appraisal of a particular watch.
