Okay experts... there are eight different versions of Daytona here. Who can name them?

16520s are not my specialty, but

  1. standard black dials
  2. standard white dials
  3. Patrizzi whites (discolored subdial rings)
  4. Patrizzi blacks (discolored subdial rings)
  5. 4-lines
  6. 5-lines
  7. 200 UPH
  8. 400 UPH
  9. porcelain dial
  10. black 'floater' (COSMOGRAPH located below the lines above it, though some equate 'floaters' with porcelain, which I do not know to be true)

Did I miss anything?

Good Lord. :notworthy:

There's not a white Patrizzi there, but you sure nailed the rest. As and Ps, Highs and Lows, Mark-1, Mark-2, Patrizzi and Porcelain.

I'm impressed!

I was going to stop at "Rolex"...maybe go as far as "16520" and hope that's all you were looking for. ;)

Are these a few pieces you found lying in an old shoe box that you forgot you had?

It looks like a Rolex Sgt. Pepper album. :band1:

And with vintage Rolex watch/parts prices creeping back upwards again, the bracelets in that picture, alone, are worth a small fortune. Anyone try to buy an early Sub bracelet (7206/80) in very good condition lately? Pricing on these things is already almost back to where it was around the 'Revolution' auction last year. :blink: I never thought I would see that happen, at least until the global economy improved significantly.

Stop posting pics of my watches Nanuq................

I will be showing these at the once annual northern antarctic RWG GTG. It takes place the first Sunday that falls in the middle of the week. :D
