Rolex

Very different wathces, Jay jay

 

A bit if you ask me if I prefer cheese or dessert...LOL

I'd take both! ROFL

Seriously, these watches are radically different:

The Dayto is a Chrono, not the 232.

The Dayto is 40mm big, while the 232 is 47mm.

Strap for the 232, Bracelet for the Dayto.

Brown dial with golden hands for the 232, white dial and white metal hands for the Dayto.

Your wrist will give you an answer.

A small wrist will drive you to choose the Dayto.

A big wrist will lead you till the 232.

Your heart will give you the answer if your wirst didn't.

Both are desirable, for different reasons, and if I had the choice, I'd finally go for the Dayto ( but I already own the Cali...).

Damn, I also own the dayto...LOL

This is a cool legendary watch, which will offer you a big pleasure on the wrist.

Best.

Nicolas

Is this a good find? Definitely ! How much is a watch like this worth? Around 10kEuros if it is in good condition and comes with the papers I have a two tone Daytona which I bought only this year. What are the differences between the two? Everything is di... 

Ditto on all, Jeff

The 2 Tone Dayto is a pleasant watch but can't beat a SS Dayto! A series, all the way... Best. Nicolas

Daytona A series

Thanks so much for your replies. What does it mean when you say A series? What year did this come out? Is it true that the Zenith movement is more desirable than the new rolex movements? When did they change to this? It is supposed to be brand new and is ... 

Zenith Daytona

What year did this come out? in 1988 Is it true that the Zenith movement is more desirable than the new rolex movements? It is not used by Rolex anymore, so it is considered as neo-vintage... When did they change to this? In 2000 It is supposed to be bran... 

1988 or 1998, Jeff, for the A series?

 
By: amanico : September 8th, 2008-13:32
Have a look here, please... rolex.watchprosite.com I wonder... Best. Nicolas

I stand corrected

the most desirable 16520's are indeed the R- Serie from 1988 (first produced) and the A- Serie from 1998 introducing the luminova dial and SEL bracelet. Sory for the mix up. Cheers Jeff
