    Goodmorning everyone.
    I bought a lot of spare parts for watches and in the middle I found this dial.
    From a brief research I understand that it should be the quadrant of the Daytona 16520 Mark II with 4 lines.
    I state that I do not have a Rolex, so I am totally ignorant of the subject and I have the doubt / presentiment that can clearly be a reproduction.
    On the back there is the word SINGER engraved several times, the feet seem to have been cut.
    I ask for your opinion about it.
    I enclose some detail photos in order to make the details as visible as possible.
    Thanks

    It looks like the dial comes from a Daytona with a water damage.

    Not a lot at all due to the damage and lack of dial feet.

    What would anyone do with it?

    [QUOTE = "Foo2rama, post: 1087938, membro: 20013"] Non molto a causa del danno e della mancanza dei piedini.

    Cosa farebbero a nessuno? [/ QUOTE]
    For restore?

    Ciao @IAM,

    Penso che con la quantità di danni causati dall'acqua, il restauro non varrebbe la pena.

    If that means: the dial is crap and not worth restoring or any money. Couldn't agree more.

    Stick it on ebay with a no reserver $.99 start, and you will find out what it is worth. My guess is that you will end up with the most that way vs trying to sell it otherwise. Might be $50, might be $500. It's really hard to tell what some people will pay.

    [QUOTE = "IAM, post: 1088032, membro: 30969"] [QUOTE = "mr_yossarian, post: 1088012, membro: 18651"] Se ciò significa: il quadrante fa schifo e non vale la pena di essere ripristinato o di alcun denaro . Non potrei essere più d'accordo. [/ CITAZIONE]
    anche da buttare. È così brutto? [/ CITAZIONE]

    Hello, this is a "4 line Zenith" Daytona 16523 or 16528 dial (all gold or two tone gold and stainless). It is not a 16520 dial, you can tell because the lettering and markers are gold, not white. If it was a 16520 dial it would be very valuable, even in this condition, and someone would likely buy it to restore it as the 4 line 16520s have really jumped in price. I can't tell you what the 16523 / 16528 dial is worth, but I'm sure to the right person it will be important ...
    Good luck, hope this helps

    Yep, pretty much. Don't let anyone ever tell you you're not fluent in Italian!

    Si, è brutto e danneggiato.

    English --> Yes, it's really ugly and damaged.

    Mmmmmm, don't know. I heard that in Parma there is a genius who restores dial but i don't know if that makes sense money wise especially because an expert will spot the restoration.

    But one can always ask.

    Inverted 6. Even in this condition, it will get some good money. A great description with proper key words on eBay is probably your best bet.
