Cosmograph Daytona- " Zenith Daytona" - 16523 (1999)

Description:

The Rolex Daytona 16523, often referred to as the "Zenith" Daytona, is a highly coveted chronograph that represents a pivotal era in Rolex’s history. Produced from the late 1980s to the early 2000s, this model is powered by the modified Zenith El Primero movement, Caliber 4030, making it the first automatic Daytona before Rolex transitioned to an entirely in-house movement.

Paired with an Oyster bracelet in steel and gold, the Daytona 16523 embodies both elegance and performance. As a transitional reference with a unique movement, this model remains a sought-after collectible among watch enthusiasts and Daytona fans.

This piece in particular presents in very good condition with full box and papers, circa 1999.
