Hello!

appraiser_kaneko

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!

Today we'll be looking at a recommended model of Daytona/Ref. 16528.

Rolex Daytona El Primero All Tritium
Ref.16528 Serial.U5 (manufactured around 1997)
Cal.4030 FF103/78398 Clasp Code U2
Accessories: Warranty card (402: Guam/April 1999 stamp)
Retail price: 5,995,000 yen (tax included)

"El Primero equipped 165 series Daytona Cal.4030"

This movement is based on Zenith's El Primero automatic chronograph movement, but has been reduced in frequency from 36,000 vibrations per hour to 28,800 vibrations per hour and has been improved in terms of durability, etc.

Produced from the R series (around 1988) to the P series (around 2000),
This was the last Rolex chronograph model to feature a third-party movement.

The model we are introducing this time is the solid gold model "Ref. 16528"!

The K18YG solid Daytona is a model that is less common than the stainless steel model, but
Although it is not widely available, this is a recommended model that can still be purchased at an attractive price range.

The availability of this product will likely decrease gradually in the future.

The dial is the MK6 champagne dial.
The dial is appropriate for its age.

Personally, I think the Ref. 16528/champagne dial with a black frame for the sub-dials is extremely sophisticated and simply cool.

The dial condition is very good even with a magnifying glass!
The all-tritium luminous material is also in excellent condition.

The bezel is in good condition and matches the age of the watch!

This animal was well cared for by its owner,
The condition of the individual item is good and highly recommended!!

There are some small scratches from use, but no major scratches.

*The glass was replaced during an overhaul by the manufacturer in 2015, so there is a crown watermark.

The middle case is in the condition you see!
There is no sign of wear from polishing, and it is a very impressive piece!!

The sturdy lug legs are thick and have sharp edges!

The breath condition is especially impressive!
This is a crisp and attractive bracelet with absolutely no wrinkles.
This bracelet is rare.

*Frames will be full frames.

The clasp code for the W buckle is "U2"
The ages match perfectly!!

Accessories include a warranty card, international service warranty card (September 2015), and Daytona booklet.
There is no box, but the fact that it comes with a warranty is a big plus!

Wrist shot!!

I can't get enough of this retro look on his face.
The champagne dial is very sophisticated and cool!!

Solid Gold El Primero Daytona/Champagne Dial "Ref.16528/All Tritium"
This is a highly recommended specimen with excellent overall condition!
Be sure to grab a solid gold Daytona with a warranty like this while you can!!
The selling price is also very attractive!
Ref.16528/It is predicted that good quality specimens will become even less available in the future,
If you are looking for a 5-digit solid gold Daytona, please consider this one.
