AD purchase 2014, 116520, random serial, black dial, one tick, blue lume.

Chulander · 1 November 2014, 12:48 AM

I wonder if Rolex is doing some kind of subtle experiment with these variants, as even a model as new and precious as the Platinum Daytona has both single tick and double tick versions.

Or maybe it's some sort of internal game...so mischevious.

Blue lume and 2 ticks:

Latest 116520 (random serial, blue lume) have single tick while new ceramic Daytona has double tick.

alex1979 · 30 August 2016, 04:05 PM

M series ( 2008 ) single tick and darker subdials

Rafabond · 25 January 2018, 03:14 AM

this is mine, bought in 2005, D 090xxx with double tic. As I read that sphere they call it MKII, can it be?

ciderman · 26 January 2018, 05:21 AM

Mine is a White dial .... V 4xxxxx Single Tick.

Interesting. I got mine a Y serial 2003 black 116520 fullset double tic with

1.thin hands,

2.the sub-dial rings are actually thinner than the newer model as well to fit the thin hands like 16520,

3.more like a grey color less reflective sub dial rings,

4.the silver hour markers are more flat and not as reflective as the newer models,

5.the words and minute markers are super bold and serif.

Overall makes this early 2003 more old school.

Which tick (single or double) is bolder subdial font?
I see randomly.

DGB · 22 September 2018, 01:18 AM

I think the latest ones are with a single tick. Mine is from 2016 with blue lume and a single tick.

If you noticed this, just wait until you start observing the "APH" dials
