Introduced in 2000 as the next evolution of the Daytona line, the ref. 116520 retained much of the beloved design of its predecessor, the "Zenith" Daytona, with some subtle changes. The dial layout was tweaked, moving the running seconds subdial from 9 o'clock to 6 o'clock, and the subdials were no longer aligned with the center but were slightly elevated above it, spanning from 9 to 3 o'clock. Rolex also made adjustments by widening the indices to allow for more luminous material, extending the lugs, and adding a mirror finish to the case flanks, distinguishing this latest generation even further.
We are pleased to offer the present 116520 in unworn and sticked condition accompanied by its full suite of accessories.
