Today we'll be looking at a Rolex Daytona, reference number 116520 kind of an older model. All right but let's certainly not to say that it's, you know beyond a timeless because it absolutely is, taking a look here we have a completely steel construction white dial and oyster bracelet right. Again, reference number 116520. Zero state tone 40 millimeters from finger to thumb. We'll be talking about the case, the dial bezel, as well as the crown functions, the movement and the bracelet. And I'll be giving you my thoughts on all these throughout the video. And if you stay tuned toward the end, I'll be giving you a little insight as to what makes this one a little interesting actually. If you see it already, don't spoil it for us in the comments yet all right. So again, 40 millimeter case from finger to thumb. We have a model block middle case entirely out of steel with these screw down case back and the Rolex winding crown to ensure water proofness down to a hundred meters or 330 feet. Again, this is all steel construction high Polish on every conceivable surface of this case as you can see on the sides, as well as the front of the lugs complete with my fingerprints as well. So giving that alternating look between lug and the links of the bracelet set and brush finishing on the outer links with the high polish in the middle giving it a very nice distinguishing feature, sort of like racing stripes, as you would see on a Daytona Raceway. Okay now looking at the bezel sitting right on top, again also stainless steel, oyster seal Rolex's own proprietary blend of steel and other compounds to make this a very durable and also high polish sort of presentation that you see here. And note that this is an older model of the Daytona, meaning that all of the numerals here are actually completely upright. They don't sort of rotate around as you go around the tecommitter here as you can see right. Now, as you can see, also I have this in a white dial, complete with the sub-registers. Now this is one of the first models actually to also feature the small seconds at the six o'clock. Whereas it used to be at the nine o'clock position the 12 hour and the nine o'clock or the 12 hour chronograph dial. And the small seconds were transposed before but now they've also lined up the chronograph thous to be opposite each other on the sort of like horizontal plane there where they have the small seconds directly at the bottom at the six o'clock position, very nice sort silvery sunray look on those sub registers as well. It gives a very nice and interesting fun way to sort of echo that sort of movement that you would see from a Daytona track as well. So Rolex have done very well in this regard. All this underneath a scratch proof, scratch resistant, Sapphire crystal. So no fear of suit threads or buttons potentially damaging it. Now take a look, we also have a, the Daytona name and a red ink directly above that sub register all right. So you know you definitely know that you have a Daytona in this. If you haven't already figured it out by the credit pushers looking at the functions here of these Colonel pushers they work as you would expect, simply unscrew them to basically, you know start and stop the functions here. Now, this is a pre-owned watch. So it can get a little sticky sometimes, but anyway you can see that the chronograph hand in the center is running as smoothly as it is. No sudden stops, no sudden stops or it's all sudden starts and sudden stops. There's no weird stuttering motion. And that's thanks to the functionality of the movement at the time which it was actually rather new Now take a look at the crown here, we have the same function as you would expect. You simply wind it at the main, the first position. This allows you to wind the watch 20 or 30 full lines is all you really need to get it started from a dead stop, right. Pull it out to the next and final position. You actually change the time by moving the minute hand. These small seconds hand actually does have that hacking function so you can set them into hand precisely based on the seconds, hand position. Align it with an atomic clock, push it in, get started once again, screw it back in tightly against the case to ensure that superior water resistance 100 meters or 330 feet. What makes all of this work is the movement, the 4130 movement in this Daytona. It has, let me see a height of 6.5 millimeters, 44 total joules of diameter of 30.5 millimeters. It beats out a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour. Nothing out of the ordinary with any movement like this from a Rolex, certainly with a low Daytona line. It has a 72 hour power reserve, thankfully and that's because you effectively can set this down on a Friday evening, pick it back up on a Monday morning, right to conduct business, no need to wind the watch. Also it has a bi-directional winding rotor on the inside. So that's simply all you need to do is just wind the crown once. And the simple movements of this watch on your wrist as you wear it throughout the day will continue to wind it up to that maximum power reserve. Again, plus or minus two second per day accuracy, nothing absolutely new there from our Rolex all right. And now taking a look at the bracelet here, we also have the oyster style bracelet polished high Polish down the center with sand brush finishing on the outside, having a nice gentle taper down to the fulling class, the safety class which opens up by lifting from the bottom to open up the safety and then just lifting the top to unhook it from the inside. Though you have the Rolex standard logo. And you know this is entirely a steel construction when it comes to the bracelet. While I'm here, I actually try it on give you some of my thoughts as to how it wears on their wrist right now, if you know me from my videos I prefer 36 millimeter case sizes and that's a really non-exception here. This is a 40 millimeter, so it's kind of big for me. I have a seven inch wrist, so I'm not getting too much framing from the bracelet here. I'm getting all dial. And certainly that's not a bad thing when you consider that this is a Daytona. It's all about the dial there all right. A little bit more on that in a second 'cause I'll be coming by to the dial in just a moment but when it comes to the readability, excellent, very easy to read what these index are of marks. And let me actually mention here. There's some glow-in-the-dark capability there from that chroma light there all right. Very easy to see even in low light situations, you can see the minute hand and our hand both lit up very splendidly with those index, our marks, all right. chroma light gives it an extra, expand of time basically where it just continues to glow. Whereas, you know, other watches story of loser luminescence under a minute, this one just keeps on going, thanks to, you know Rolex's ingenuity there. The subtitles here very easy to read as well. They sort of pop out against that background of white very easy to read, very elegant in its styling. And now when we have this 40 millimeter case on my wrist it sort of hangs a little bit over, but not outward. So I do get extra venting of the wrist underneath these lugs that sort of taper outward, not sort of downward, all right. And not that that's an issue because the oyster bracelet does give me plenty of breathing on the wrists. So I'm not gonna get sweaty anytime soon even though summer's coming up really soon here at least as of the making of this video all right. So this sort of white dial, highly desirable and a fully steel construction also very good because you can make this an everyday wear sort of watch all steel makes it, you know not quite as flashy, not quite as crazy valuable in that regard. So you can certainly wear this just about every day. Now onto the little bit here that I want to focus on, almost literally. Do you see what makes this watch a little bit different? Well, it's the topography there for the word cosmograph, if you'll notice that the spacing between the R and the A and cosmograph is actually not quite the same as you would find with the rest of the word, and that's due to the.... Well to get the technical term, that is the kerning the spacing between any two letters. All right, this is a little bit larger than you would see in the rest of the word. And that sort of makes this dial and this configuration, this entire watch a little bit more special a little bit more valuable to collectors because Rolex doesn't make mistakes. And when they do well people will pay for it, certainly. And that's basically what makes this watch quite interesting. It's the kerning between the R and the A the wish makes this an APH style literally because the last three letters in Cosmograph have effectively named the style of the APH style and therefore the APH Daytona by extension, correct. So that's really all that special about this. Other than you know, the fact that we still have an excellent power reserve on this launch you're not gonna be able to put this down anyway. So you probably won't even never run out of power on this watch either all right. So anyway, that's about it for this video. I got nothing else for you. Leave us alike, be sure to leave us a comment let us know what you think of that, about this watch. And does this typography really matter to you? Does the APH matter to you? If so, yeah let us know. If not, let us know too. Maybe it doesn't matter. Anyway be sure to subscribe if you haven't already hit that bell notification.
