re: 16520 vs. 116520
Thank you for your reply! Besides the esthetics of the 16520, do you find that the watch is less accurate than the in-house movement of the 116520? I know the 16520 has a modified El Primero movement..just wondering if the improvements Rolex made with its own in-house movement is actually better..
daytona 16520 vs daytona 116520

16520!
I had one with both dials black&white, I sold it for a 1665 Rail, than I sold it too... nowadays I'd buy a 16520 R, never thought to buy a 116520 even if I've seen a nice one with a creamy dial
Went for the 116520
