Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have the early Daytona combination model!!

Rolex Daytona El Primero All Tritium
Ref.16523 Serial.L5 (manufactured around 1989)
Cal.4030 78363/FF403 Clasp Code N6
Accessories: Warranty card (400: Hong Kong/September 1991)
SOLD OUT!!

"El Primero equipped 165 series Daytona Cal.4030" 

Rolex uses Zenith automatic chronograph movements
Based on the El Primero, the frequency has been reduced from 36,000 vibrations per hour to 28,800 vibrations per hour.
A movement with improved durability, etc.

The Rolex models produced from the R series (around 1988) to the P series (around 2000) were the last to be equipped with movements from other manufacturers.
If you think about it, it's definitely a rare model!

Recently, we have seen a lot of activity with the stainless steel model/Ref. 16520.
Behind the scenes, the combination model is also moving forward steadily.

Combination models are a little cheaper,
This is also recommended for those who feel that SS is too expensive.

Either way, the El Primero model, which is no longer in production, is a model worth keeping an eye on now.

The year of manufacture is L model number, around 1989.

This is an early inverted 6/single tritium watch with an attractive kamaboko case.

Ref.16523/The early models with white dials, either combination or solid gold, have black circles for the sub-dial scales.
*From around the S number the color changes from black to gold.

This early white dial with a black circle is a very rare dial that is rarely seen.

In particular, models without diamonds and with leaf indexes have become increasingly rare recently.

The dial condition is very good even with a magnifying glass.
It is maintained in exceptionally good condition!

The luminous material is all tritium.
The condition of the luminous hands is also very good.

The bezel is an MK3 that matches the period.

There are some scratches around the bezel,
It is in a crisp and very impressive condition!!

While many of these watches have droopy bezels,
A bezel in such good condition is rare!

The item we have just received has scratches from use,
A good specimen reminiscent of a non-polished one.
This is a very cool individual with a rugged atmosphere!

Of course, the case condition is also very attractive!!

As you can see, the lugs are thick and have very sharp edges!

The hairline is still in good condition!

Buckle clasp code is "N6"

The bracelet matches the era and is in good condition with almost no signs of wear!

*One frame is missing.

There is still a reflector seal on the back cover!

The accessories come with a warranty.
There are no other accessories included, but the warranty is a big plus!!

Wrist shot!!
You have a good look on your face.

The white dial with a black inner circle is attractive!

El Primero-equipped Daytona "Ref. 16523/L5" All Tritium
Rare! A good example with an early white dial reminiscent of a non-polished model!
The parts are consistent and a warranty is included, so I highly recommend it!
The actual item is even more beautiful than the photo, so
We hope you will pick up a copy and take a look!
Customers looking for an El Primero-equipped Daytona,
Please consider this.
