The 6238 is the chronograph Rolex sold just before the 6239 took the Cosmograph name: same broad case formula and Valjoux 72 base, but still with the tachymeter on the dial and a smooth bezel. The market calls it Pre-Daytona, though the overlap with the 6239 makes it more sibling than strict predecessor.
