Being the zenith daytonas have the subdials outlined in black do the two tone and 18 ct versions have the same black outline. Im confused as pictures show both and would like to know because I will be looking for this watch if it exists. If it does please tell me what years to ask for, thanks...

Main difference between a Zenith movement and a non-Zenith is the location of the seconds sub-dial on the watch dial. Zenith at 9 and non-Zenith at 6.

Earlier versions have black subdials, later versions gold. Not sure what serial they changed it

Not a rule of thumb.

Position of the subdials on the dial are different, no?

I believe they show up both ways for the 1652x Zenith Daytonas. Heres an example with non-black outlined subdials

And here is one with black outlined subdials, both Zenith-based Daytonas:

Bingo ! The second pic is the one I am talking about. Seems like its a rare watch because its hard to find pics on the web and if I do I wonder if its fake. I think this watch looks amazing and I like the way the black counteracts the gold on the watch. Now the fun starts trying to find one.
