Updated info on 16520 Daytona Dial and Bezel variants.

[jaisonline]

During my research on SS 16520 models, I found many great sites (here, drsd, & daytonainfo to name just a few) with various details about Mark I to V variants and the watch itself.

Most of the web sites listed 5 dial & 3 bezel variants. A few more Marks have been identified and I just wanted to share some info.


The link below does a decent job summarizes each Mark including the new ones. note: bezels aren't listed but only 1 new variant has been ID's (the same one found on earlier 116520s).

This is a great resource. With the launch of the 126500 which very blatantly picks up key design cues from the 16520, I reckon the Zenith daytonas will be highly sought after in the near future.

I love Zenith Daytonas. On the 16520, the Patrizzi aesthetic appeals to me.

Zenith daytonas all the way :)

They're already highly sought-after, and have been pretty much since they were released in the late 1980s.
