I have to admit, I love the layout of the Zenith (sweep seconds hand at the 9:00 position).

I agree, the Zenith series is a much more attractive watch. Interestingly enough, "the market" seem to agree as they 16520-prices are trending higher while you can pick up a used 116520 for +10% off retail.

Awesome pictures I have to bring out my Daytona again. Now I feel we can enjoy our Daytonas in peace.

I admit I am obsessed with the daytona. Bought one already and looking for another one. Looked at a Patrizzi the other day but he had no paperwork and I didn't like the fact it did not have the solid end links. Although when I wore it , it looked amazing.

Great watch - but I find it less userfriendly in terms of reading time.. Its a very busy dial to look at IMHO

It is easy to understand! As I said as a reply to Patrick (psv); the 16520 is a beautiful watch!

Best,

Not if you have a WG Panda.

I really really adore my Daytona... though it doesn't stop me from wanting other watches!

I can see how the Zenith's second hand at 9 oclock is a good thing... maybe better than how it is on the current 4130 Daytonas.
