Description
This solid 18k gold Rolex Daytona reference 16528 is in perfect, never polished original condition and complete with box and original papers showing a sold date of July 3, 1991. It is beautiful to behold and will make its next owner very happy indeed.

Case is in mint+ original and never polished condition with dimensions of 39mm diameter by 13mm thick. Solid gold bezel with engraved Units per Hour scale. Screw down crown and chronograph pushers, all operating perfectly. Sapphire crystal. Water resistant to 100 meters. Solid gold Rolex Oyster bracelet with solid end links and 13 bracelet links along with a flip-lock clasp. This is from E series production.

Movement is the Rolex Caliber 4030 which is actually a Rolex modified Zenith El Primero base caliber. If one ever needed proof that Rolex is a perfectionist, they need look no further than their use and modifications to the El Primero. The Zenith El Primero was, and is, recognized as being the best large series production chronograph caliber made. Rolex used the El Primero in their Daytona watches, but not before doing extensive upgrades and refinements.

The dial is so nice on this watch... black with applied luminous hour markers and hands... gold chapter ringsā€¦ and 'DAYTONA' in red letters arching over the 6 o'clock subdial. Such a nice design touch, and very subtle against the black dial.

Watch is accompanied by its original box and papers.
