So the Daytona should have 3 lines to be correct.

Attachment 14845

are we all crazy?
they ALL have 4 lines between the second indicators (for a total of 5 counting the actual second indicator to the right if you will), wether or not the second hand pulses to each line it becomes a guesstimate when it gets down to the 10th of a second.

This is a great review. I am so happy that I am now the proud owner of a brand new SS Daytona. This was my christmas present from Me to Me. It makes a great addition to the collection.

johnkszabo · 15 January 2011, 01:08 PM

Great review!Love my Daytona

Rolexavidfan · 26 January 2011, 01:49 AM

Brilliant piece of review work, considered to be timeless (especially since this review was written back in 2007) and classic. It did influence me in taking the plunge on a Daytona just recently. Am loving my piece since then. Further, just an observation I wish to share: Considering that the movement was developed some 12 years back, am pretty amazed as how this Rolex 3day movement continues to outdo/outsize the newer 3day movement of other brands. Just go to show how good the Rolex folks are in creating their timepieces. Thanks again for sharing...

Nashvegas · 27 January 2011, 11:17 AM

Fantastic review. Glad Rolex got an in-house movement together but I'll always have a soft spot for the El Primero. Just wish they'd added a date window!

Blasphemy!!

A date would ruin it! If they ever do decide to add a date, I hope they make a new model (IE: Date-ona

) and leave this beauty as it is!
