FrankenDaytona?
I found this Daytona on ebay and, well, it just doesn't look right to me and after a little research, it looks even more weird.
Any Daytona experts know what's going on with this watch? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rolex-Dayton...item5419461c23

What doesn't look right to you? Nothing jumps out as off, looks lovely! Seller has 100% feedback as well.

The bracelet looks suspicious to me for starters.
Remember, we're looking at a 1963 specimen. I thought the dial looked off, but I'm not so sure now. This pre-Paul Newman Daytona(with a 1695xxx serial number circa 1963)is rare and in excellent plus preowned condition and comes in its Rolex box set

I think its a very well taken care of example, but for $38k I'd want to be sure too! I'm sure someone more in the know will be along soon.

Band is a modern replacement but acceptable to most
