The Rolex Daytona timepiece may be one of the most iconic watches that Rolex produces, however much of the success of the modern-day Daytona can be attributed to the various Rolex chronographs that came before it. One particular model of chronograph produced in the early 1950s, the Rolex Oyster Chronograph (reference 6034) stands out due to its popularity among celebrities, and its precursor status to the now-iconic Daytona.
