Notes

Favoured by specialised collectors, the reference 6262 is basically an upgraded 6239 featuring the new movement caliber 727. Produced during about 18 months only, this niche reference can only follow its sister references in ranks of collectability. This particular example purchased by the husband of the consignor and has remained in excellent condition with a mint T Swiss T dial with all its original patinated lume still present perfectly matching the hands as well as a very well conserved case showing little polish, a caseback without a single service mark and a movement in close to new condition.
