Hello!
Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we have a semi-vintage model of Daytona.
Rolex Daytona White Lettering All Tritium
Ref.16520 Serial.N (manufactured around 1991)
Cal.4030 78360/FF503 Clasp Code R9
Accessories: Box
SOLD OUT!!
Daytona with El Primero, manufactured from R to P, "Ref. 16520"
The product we are introducing this time is an item that has the characteristics of an early model, which has become extremely rare recently!
Commonly known as the "reverse 6 dial"
At 6 o'clock, the number "6" on the 12-hour counter is inverted to look like a "9".
It is called the "reverse six" or "inverted six."
This is an early dial produced up to around the S number.
It is also called "INVERTED 6" overseas.
By the way, the dial is "MK4" !
The dial is in very nice condition.
The luminous material is all tritium.
It is a nice touch that the hands, which are prone to replacement, remain tritium.
The buckle is a single buckle.
This particular item has an "R" clasp code, so it comes with a buckle that matches the era.
A distinctive feature of the early models is the inverted 6 dial and single buckle.
The inverted 6 dial has a matte SS single bracelet.
It has a more retro feel and is really cool!!
The bezel is the "MK4" that matches the era.
At first glance, the bezel looks similar to the MK5, but the font of the "60" scale is different.
The bezel has scratches below the 300 mark and some ink spots,
The bezel is not overly finished and rounded, making for a striking and rare bezel suited to its age.
I checked the crown watermark-free glass with a 10x magnifying glass, but I couldn't find any scratches.
The case condition is from around 1991,
The edge lines will be well-defined and in good condition.
There is a small scratch on the surface of the upper right lug, but it does not detract from the appearance.
The hairline will also be beautiful, resulting in a clean rug.
The case sides also have some slight scuffs but are in fairly good condition.
The bracelet is in good condition with almost no creases.
Comes with box, Oyster booklet and chronometer tag.

Although there is no warranty, this impressive all-tritium/inverted 6/single buckle watch is rare!!
