Rolex Daytona 16520 Zenith R7 Serial – Porcelain Floating Dial – 200 Scale Bezel – Unpolished

 

The second Daytona series had the movement supplied by Zenith, furthermore, after the brand was sold to another company, the movement underwent a modification by an engineer named Charles Vermot and became known as the Zenith El Primero.
Although the first series Daytona is considered collectible, note that the impact the second series Daytona had on the collector market was notable. Released in 1988 and produced until 2000, the second series Daytona is what gave us the foundation of the contemporary Daytona aesthetic. With an updated 40mm case, compared to the previous 37mm, the second series Daytona is almost indistinguishable from the modern third series. Powered by perhaps one of the greatest chronograph movements ever, the Rolex cal. 4030 – a highly modified El Primero movement, is made iconic by it.

 

This rare Rolex Daytona reference 16520 has the following characteristics:

 

Satin stainless steel case and bracelet

White “Floating” Porcelain Dial with the presence of the inverted “6”

Tachometric scale 200

Zenith movement

Unpolished
