Rolex Chronograph 4767

Reference 4767 is a historically monumental timepiece, representing the very first reference of the “Jean-Claude Killy” Dato-Compax. Produced for a very short period from approximately 1947 to 1948, it was Rolex’s first-ever triple-calendar chronograph wristwatch. It is powered by the Valjoux 72C manual-wind movement. The technical specification is a 36mm case, typically in steel or rose gold, with a non-Oyster snap-on case back. Its significance cannot be overstated, as it is the genesis of Rolex’s entire ‘grand complication’ lineage, establishing the dial layout and functionality that would define the Killy family for over a decade.
