I'd go as far as saying it's not even that minimal. There is a significant size difference between the PM and SS cases. Makes it all the better to own them both. They're quite different.

Nice trio! It makes me realize that I spend too much time here when my first thought is, hey that’s his dad’s 16520.” Lol

So how can one tell it’s a black 16520 vs. 116520 besides the location of the running second hand at 9 ‘clock? It’s easy on the white with the black sub rings, but not as obvious on the black.

haha now you all know me, and my dad. One day I'll have to do a photoshoot with him so you can put a face to the stories I tell about him.

If you had these three would you consider trading the black dial daytona for a white dial?

Keep in mind the black dial zenith daytona has and will not ever be worn.
That would be the delicious icing on this tremendous cake trio!

Nah.....why subtract when you can add a nice white dial 116520....then you are complete!
I definitely recognize the 16520 you have. Wow....just awesome and unworn. It’s a stunner......then again I am biased.....I own a 16520 white dial.

Wow. That’s the first time I was actually able to notice the difference.

Big difference.
