    Morning folks, hope you're all staying safe and well during these times. Thought I'd share this recent story we wrote about the Rolex Zenith Daytona. Daytonas have always been popular since the 90s/2000, but the Zenith movement version has become one of those watches that has soared in popularity in recent years.

    We tell the story of how we got up close and personal with one that hadn't seen the light of day since it left the AD. Have a read here. Hope you enjoy.

    No worries, glad you enjoyed it :) I know what you mean; same for us! Anything to distract and remind us of our hobbies is a good thing!

    I know what you mean! I would have rather worn it, but to each their own. Seeing it in NOS condition was like stepping into the time machine.

    A NOS Daytona is something different. A really close person to me have one in the safe ( 16528 ) that i was able to handle a couple of times and the sharpness of the case, bezel and hedges feels sooo different even from a good one.
