What makes the present watch special is that this represents the first execution of the Rolex Daytona ever made in two-tone steel and yellow gold, with the manual winding Daytona only coming in full stainless steel or yellow-gold configurations. Able to combine preciousness and sportiness together, it is nowadays one of the models that is gaining more popularity. The quality of the present 16523 is stunning with perfectly well preserved crisp case and screw down pushers, such as the Oyster bracelet. The gold bezel is graduated to 400 units per hours and still presents the vivid black color of the printing. The glamorous Champagne dial with black subsidiary dials for the chronograph and the applied yellow-gold baton numbers is mint and perfectly matches the steel-gold binomial. Offered with its original warranty and tags, two tones watch like this are gaining positions in the watch aficionados’ wish list and for this reason are now very requested.
