kevin300z Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 (edited) Hi guys, haven't been around in awhile. I would like to add a Rolex Daytona 116509 Black Dial or White, to my collection and would like to know who has the best rep? I heard there are issues with these watches and the movements, any light on that subject as well? Thanks.

freddy333 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 There are numerous posts regarding the inherent design problems (& remedy) relating to seconds @ 6 7750-powered watches (this being 1 of them) that you can locate via the search. Aside from that, the salient issue with 116509 is its incorrect (too large) index markers at 3, 6 & 9. The inner flange around the dial is also too deep as is the caseback, but these are relatively minor inaccuracies compared to the index markers (which I corrected on my silver dialed version) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexGucci Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 There was no change made to "improve" the models daytona with seconds at 6 o'clock? I would buy the Model 116520 white dial, but indeed has many problems? You recommend the purchase or not? I read the posts By-Tor and Freddy333 and I will try to buy for the first time a Daytona. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
