One of the most collectible chronograph wristwatches from the neo-vintage era, the reference 16520 charms the collector with its variety across its production. The present example exhibits the "Inverted 6" at the hour subsidiary counter, a trait discovered for examples prior the mid 90s. Afterwards, Rolex would correct the 6 to its upright position, making the "Inverted 6" dials sought after among collectors.
