	The 6200 is the rarest Submariner reference ever made. Nicholas Foulkes, working with direct Rolex archive access for the first authorised book on the Submariner ([https://www.rolex.org/ Rolex, October 2024]), put the production figure at 303 units. No other Submariner reference comes close. The 6200 is the high-specification big-crown branch built while the Submariner was still finding its shape: 8mm Brevet crown, 200m depth rating, no crown guards, and an Explorer 3-6-9 dial on the most desirable examples.
