Opinion on this 16520
I’m doing my own research and due diligence but I wouldn’t mind having some outside opinion.
Series E, full set. There was a standard movement service done in 2021 but not by Rolex. No other recent service history. No lume on the indices, some residual lume on the hands but it doesn’t last long, about 3min, so I assume it’s not luminova. Might be replacement but even if it is it would be tritium I reckon? What do you think of the polishing? Any other details you might notice? |

A cursory look at the photos and a couple things come to mind. It looks like a correct inverted six dial to match the serial number which is nice.
Without doing an extensive examination of the photos, the watch appears like a nice example. I would think some photos of the "full set" would be appropriate in this thread since it is being sold as a set. You just never know about these full sets.

Inverted 6 to be sure. Bracelet is correct and original given the serial. Brushed center links were only produced for the first few years of the run 89-92'ish if I recall.
I'd also want to see the "full-set". You'll undoubtedly be paying a hefty premium for this 16520 given the dial and serial alone.
