Daytona
I'm interested in this watch. The seller has amazing feedback and he states that he changed the band becasue he did not like the PCL.
I just wanted to ask here if there are any concerns mainly on the polishing. http://www.ebay.com/itm/371068074475...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Thank you!

If he just brushed the centre links they can be returned to high polish, no problem

He put on a different band. I'm a bit concerned that the watch has been over polished. The bezel looks a bit worn down.

Is it true that the old Zenith movements are better than the newer Rolex movements? I did not realize that. Because it seems really pricey; you could buy a new one for a little bit more on this site.

Clasp is over polished, bezel need repainting there are better examples. Pass on this one.

I think you're right. I know I would have to purchase a new Daytona band and I would either refinish or replace the bezel. I was hoping I could talk him down and get it for cheap, considering I'd have to sink money into it. But for a few grand more I could just buy one and not have to do anything but wear it.
