Is it true that the Zenith Daytona 16520 does not wear as comfortable as the 116520? Is the bracelet of the 116520 a scratch magnet?

Which one would you buy? Why?

Congrats! Interesting, as mine's a month old, that the font is different. Mine has serifs, yours doesn't.

Can you show full dial it appears it's a double tick with the more shiny subrings also these are predominantly older dials - the newest dials well on white dial daytonas have a flatter subring colour not so shiny , different font type also. This is white face Sept 2015 below - also your YT are almost touching in DAYTONA that's very odd visually? That O also is rounded in comparison to white dial, lots of dial differences infact including even the Rolex crown not being in same position / size as on white dial - too many differences I could tell you to mention. Could just be that's how it is on double tick dials. The madness that is Rolex macros ;)

Sure, here you go. Mine arrived at my AD at from Rolex HQ at the AD's closing time, and I bought it first thing the next morning about a month ago. So this is a new, current Daytona. Double tick, shiny subdials, CL lume, green hangtag. What's especially odd about your white one is the red DAYTONA is "my" font, and not consistent with the rest of "your" font.

Found in a different topic:

The one with 1 Tick at 27 and 33, and one with 2 ticks at 27 and 33, also the 2 ticks appear to have shinier sub dials with a bolder font

One month in, and it's only -20 seconds. I can't find fault with that!
