Good deal bo allthough for the same money and 900 euros plus you can buy a new one in greece but you have to wait for two years. If i was to buy a daytona i would buy the one from ebay that you showed.

Well, I have had three of those 16520ies (first a White Face, then a Black Face and then finally a White Face again). I must say that I WISH I had NOT flipped them back then!

But then again, I'd rather have the modern Daytona since it has a hacking seconds feature which the "Zenith" Daytona movement did not have. Also, the bracelet of the new Daytona is far better made than the old one, even though I kinda like the "Oyster link pattern" that you see on the bracelet of the old Daytona (the white is just plain polished in the middle of the clasp and has no "Oyster link pattern").

Well the white dial daytona is one of my favourite watches. Any rolex with a white dial is beautiful and i believe that the white dial is a must have. I said a lot of times that i love the white dial on rolex watches but i am not going to stop until i have one
