Rolex Four Line Black Dial Zenith Daytona Reference 16528 in 18K YG Unpolished

This is a super attractive black dial Zenith Daytona in 18k yellow gold. The case features an L serial dating to circa 1989. It features an awesome “Four Line” dial which are seen on the earliest Zenith Daytonas.

Four-Line Daytonas are extremely rare and simply say “Superlative Chronometer” on the dial and not “Officially Certified” as found on the predecessor and successor versions of the reference 16520. It is surmised that Rolex was finding the amount of text on the dial a bit tedious for the predecessor “porcelain dial” versions of the automatic Daytona.

We believe the case is unpolished. It is powered by the automatic movement (Caliber 4030 made by Zenith), and is 40mm in diameter. It features the early bracelet clasp without the flip lock, which is quite interesting.

The watch does not include the original box and papers. We do not know the service history, but it is running well.

PRICE: $49,000 ( Item SBUXYT3037)
