That's a very nice lineup, Chadri
The discipline required to keep that 16520 in nos condition must be intense.

Thanks! It's actually my dad's watch, so I have not choice in the matter haha.

But yes, I agree 100%. You have to have the right mind set for sure.

Just three different watches. The 16520 is pushing 20 years old. Slightly different design, but still pretty similar to the 116500. The ceramic Daytonas both new (‘16 & ‘17), but Gold Daytona’s have different cases than steel Daytonas.

Chadri-

Most excellent trio....I love the 116519 grey Dial on oysterflex Rubber.
U need to add a white dial then all set with a fantastic foursome!

OMG that WG , I love it and I know the difference is minimum but it looks a tad bigger than the SS which I like.

Thanks for the kind words.

If you had these three would you consider trading the black dial daytona for a white dial?

Keep in mind the black dial zenith daytona has and will not ever be worn.

Thank you my friend. That means a lot coming from you.

I can't say enough good things about the WG Daytona. If I could only keep one watch, I'm not so sure that would be the one. But as long as I'm lucky enough to own it among others in a small collection, it will be my favorite watch.

I'm happy you can experience the joy of owning the same model
