You have made a fine acquisition there and glad another Daytona finds a good home. Congrats.

Really nice! Enjoy it.
I wish they still used the black borders around the subdials.

Beautiful watch! I like the normal second counting on 9 of the Zenith movement and the narrow and long hour markers on the dial! Wear it in good health!

It does not look like Rolex does these things. And it reminds me of a fake. And it is worse than the fake's engraving, to be honest.

Unless the pictures are really weird.
For a 1988 watch as I see it it looks mint, no scratches or anything. So, maybe sometime they polished the watch on RSC and re-paint the engraving. Just a thought...
