Rolex Yellow Gold 'Zenith' Daytona Ref. 16528

Offered here is an exceptional example of the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Ref. 16528, a cornerstone of the "Zenith" era. This reference represents the first generation of automatic Daytonas and is powered by the legendary Caliber 4030—a modified Zenith El Primero movement known for its incredible reliability and historical significance. The solid 18kt yellow gold case looks to be unpolished with patina on the gold.  The all original deep gloss black dial with applied 18kt yellow gold hour markers and contrasting gold rimmed sub-dials is in pristine condition.  This dial also has the highly sought after by collectors  'inverted 6' at the 6 o'clock sub-dial. The 16528 effortlessly bridges the gap between vintage charm and modern performance. While newer references are common, the "Zenith" Daytona is increasingly difficult to find in top-tier condition and remains a "wise investment" with strong market growth. This wonderful watch comes with its original papers!
