Notes

The Rolex Daytona 6240, released in the mid 1960s, was the first version of the Rolex chronograph to feature screw- down chronograph buttons and therefore the first to be advertised as waterproof. With production of the 6240 from approximate serial number range from 1.2 until 1.7. Note is the "-T Swiss T-" designation at 6 o'clock, which is correct for the 1.2 million serial number. The next generation series do not feature dash marks flanking "T Swiss T". Le Chronographe Rolex Daytona référence 6240 est fabriqué au milieu des années 60. Il s'agit de la première version de chronographe dit étanche. En effet, on voit apparaître les poussoirs vissés. Numérotation approximative des 6240 entre 1,2 jusqu' à 1,7. A noter que la signature "-T Swiss T-" à 6 heures, correspond avec les numéros de série en 1,2 million. Les séries suivantes n'ont pas cette signature.
