1999 New Old Stock Rolex Daytona ref. 16520 “Zenith, Black Dial”

Up for grabs is a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona

Reference 16520 with Zenith based movement

A9 serial number probably either very late 1999 or early 2000 production.

This watch is in new old stock condition with factory caseback and clasp sticker still attached. During this time, Rolex does not yet do case stickers, so this is all correct and original.

No signs of wear, damage, or case wear.

The dial is black with very nicely aged subdial rings to warm “coffee with cream” color.

The bracelet remains fully linked and unsized.

The watch comes with Rolex boxes with 16520 sticker, manuals, and both hang tag with matching serial number. No papers. Though I didn’t get these directly from original owner, but I have purchased 4 NOS models from same source with same sets. Everything but the papers. During this time period, the owner’s name and address are still put on papers, so most likely they kept them for privacy reasons.
