Hello!
Today we will be introducing SOLD OUT items !
This is a random number of the 5th generation Daytona "Ref. 116520".
This is a Daytona with a slightly distinctive dial.
Yes! This is the APH dial that has been much talked about recently.
The “APH Dial” is a dial with a small space between “COSMOGR” and “APH” in the five-line “COSMOGRAPH” logo.
This image alone may be difficult to understand, so please see here for more details .
The dials range from V to the final random number.
Did you know that there are slight differences even within the same APH dial?
This is a random number from the top left (11 years), the top right is number G,
The bottom left logo is the V number and the bottom right logo is a random number (2011).
Everyone please take a good look.
All numbers except the random number in the top left are APH dials.
The APH dial is characterized by its serif-free font and the "M" and "G" of the "COSMOGRAPH" logo.
If you are unsure about the APH dial, check this out.
Another feature of the APH dial (top) is that the minute markings at the 27th and 33rd minute positions are short.
Well then!!
Do you know any differences between APH dials?
These are enlarged logos of random number (2011), G number, V number, and random number (2011) from top to bottom.
What do you think?
Do you understand?
Yes. In fact, there are differences in the width of the spaces even among APH dials.
The width gets slightly wider from top to bottom.
That's interesting...
This may affect the price difference in the future.
The APH Daytona purchased this time was the one with the most space.
The condition was also excellent!
Wrist shot!!
The wide APH dial is great!
The black dial APH dial "Ref. 116520" is a rare model, so we're looking forward to seeing what happens next!
Incidentally, a Daytona with an APH dial was also put up for auction at the Phillips Hong Kong auction held today!
