The Turn-O-Graph debuted in the early 1950s. Today, thanks to the distinctive fluted, bidirectional rotatable bezel, graduated in 10-minute increments, the heir to the 6202 model of 1953 has kept all of its original functions, allowing the wearer to track elapsed time. Albeit a beautifully simple instrument, the Turn-O-Graph indicates the second using a sweep hand, and the date through an aperture at 3 o'clock; it comes equipped with a Cyclops lens. Some specialists see the Turn-O-Graph as the precursor to the world-Famous divers' watch, the Oyster Perpetual Submariner. Indeed some of the characteristics of the first generation Turn-O-Graph are very similar to those of the Submariner 6204, which was also introduced in 1953.
Relaunched in 2003, the new Oyster Perpetual Turn-O-Graph still has its original bidirectional rotatable bezel. More pronounced fluting and black engraved graduation markers set it apart, as in the past, from the rest of the extended family of Oyster watches. Its identity is all the more subtle and original in that it features a self-winding mechanical movement that serves to measure short periods of elapsed time without the sophistication of a stopwatch. Robust, Easy to use and maintain, the Turn-O-Graph also has a date function whose clear red-on-white figure, unique in the collection, make it particularly easy to read. Certified by the Official Chronometer Testing Institute, this inimitable, fascinating watch, with a 36 mm case waterproof to a depth of 100 meters (330 feet), is exclusively availble in yellow Rolesor (steel and yellow gold), white Rolesor (steel and white gold) or Everose Rolesor (steel and Everose gold). The dials are available in various colors, from white to dark gray. sportsmen may prefer an Oyster bracelet with Oyster-claps and comfort extension link, while the more urbane might opt for Jubilee bracelet with invisible Crown-claps.
