Daytoni



The AD called me, and asked me to come over.
Which one I want to buy now, he asked me.
I said, 116520, and he sold me one.

I keep it in the transport box until the time is there.

Congrats in advance!
The ceramic Daytonas appear to be demo models. Or does your AD set them all to 10:10?

My guess demo models too...Look at chrono hand, second hand and no stickers.

Congrats on your 116520!

must be demos as the chrono second hands are at the same, as is the normal second and, that would be seriously impressive and anal!

congrats on the new watch as well!

i will ask him with my next visit.

sorry, it is a 116520.
I sold my 16520 in 2001, and this is not a real replacement.

Congrats on the 520! By far the best one out there. Much prefer the shinier subdials. Wear it in good health

I also would rather have the white 520 but I am still debating to pick up the black 500 when available.
