Notes

The reference 4062 was produced in gold, stainless steel, and steel and gold, from 1942 to 1963. In the early 50's the lugs were larger, giving the watch a stronger and more robust appearance.Similar watches are published in "Rolex, Collecting Wristwatches", by Osvaldo Patrizzi, Guido Mondani Editore, Genova 2001, pp. 410 to 414 and 485.
