drolson Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Hi guys, I´m interested in the daytona, but I don´t trust the sec@6 movements at all. If I´m right the sec@9 daytonas aren´t produced anymore, are they? Isn´t any factory interested in pruducing a good rep of the 16520....with the flimsy clasp and a reliable movement??? I´d be all over it, its just so nice looking. The only problem would be the decision between black and white... but maybe I would just take both (with my wife saying and maybe even ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But how are the daytonas with the a 7750 and sec.@9 in general? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Well they are more reliable as the 7750 naturally runs at 9 so no extra gears so if you did a COR your gonna have a nice runnin watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanke you for the answer, that´s the reason why I´m looking for a sec@9... I meant the overall quality of the watch. Regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmb Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 The big thing that kept me from wearing mine was the incorrect subdial spacing. I would have been perfectly happy with it if not for forum inhabitants. If you can find a running seconds at 6 a21j model that might be your best bet as it is thinner and overall comes closer than the fat 7750 models. All that needs to be done is to freeze the sweep hand and you're all set... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
