I just got a T Serial number which is unfortunately in the "not rare" category, however its in great condition, does not need a service for awhile and has the original box, papers, tags and even the bezel cover. Bought new from an AD in 1997. Absolutely love it, will try to never sell it! The skinny hands are hard to read compared to the fat hands Daytonas. Completes my Daytona grail search however as I now have a Z White Dial and this T Black Dial SS Daytona.

here is the Chart Felly

Just wanted to give you guys an update.. I have decided to keep my 16520, and bought a brand new Audemars Piguet ROO Safari. The financial crises has its advantages as well, I went to an AD and threw $14 grand on the table for the Safari, and the AD took it, and wrapped my Safari for me..

now I decided not to sell the 16520, and will keep it..

That said, Last year and this year, I got the ROO Safari, Hublo BB King all black, and a Milgauss green..

[QUOTE=thedon;837627]Tony, that's exactly what I was thinking.. on the other hand, some people told me if I can go to Europe on a trip, and take it with me, I might end up selling it much higher..

Edit: Just noticed it's a year old thread, you probably moved...:)
