18K Rolex Daytona Zenith movement

I'm selling my Rolex Daytona that I purchased new in Mid 90s.

Comes with original box and booklets.

This watch has the very desirable Zenith movement !

Just got back from a complete service done by my master watchmaker, he has been servicing all my watches for many many years.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Price is $18,500.

Verrry nice. Makes me wish I still had my 2 tone Daytona.

 

Thank You

 

Out of curiosity, who is the watchmaker in Los Angeles?

 

Jose Garrido he worked at Rolex for well over 20 years then went to work at the Louvre.

Then lucky for me he settled in Los Angeles !!!

He now is retired and only works for old customers like myself

 

Really nice watch Bill, I still have my 18k Day-Date President I bought new in 1976, hardly ever wear it though.

GLWS,

 

Thank you Dave, That is the exact reason that i'm selling my beautiful Daytona, it has been living in a watch winder in the safe and for quite a few years...

So I decided to take it out send it to my watchmaker have him go through it and sell it.

I'd rather somebody enjoy it as I did for so many years.

I have also been told that all the Rolex Daytona's with the Zenith movement have become very very desirable... So I should just put it back in the safe for about 10 years

Unfortunately I'm a little too old for that !

Cheers,

Bill

 

Just gorgeous! Best of luck with the sale man.

 

Thanks so much PAP.....

It is a wonderful watch, every time I had it on somebody would say what a beautiful watch

cheers

 

That is one gorgeous Daytona. Are you seriously selling it for $18,500? I bought one nearly identical to this one 3 years ago and I paid $23,900! Wish I'd seen yours first

Wouldn't it be cool to restomod a Daytona with the Zenith movement from 28,800 back to the original Zenith 36,000 so the stopwatch segmented in 10ths instead of 8ths?

 

links?

 

Hi Jay,

If you're asking how many links there are on the bracelet... there are a total of 13 six on one side seven on the other.

The clasp Lines up perfectly in the middle of my wrist.

I bought the watch new so that should be the correct amount, I don't remember ever having any removed, if there should be more than that let me know and I'll look in my safe.

Please let me know if you have any other questions

Bill

 

Good luck with the sale Bill!!

You should come visit, down here!

See Austin, and a race..

 

Thank you !

And Thank you for the generous offer... Who knows I might just jump in my car and drive down one day....

Love putting miles on my 550 trying to get to 100,000 same as I put it on my SWB 3269.

Cheers

 

Gorgeous watch...and 13 is the correct amount of links...GLWS.

Thank You

 

Just saw your post

 

It was suggested to me to put this watch on eBay, which I really do not wish to do.

So I'm reducing the price to $16,750.

That is what I would net after eBay's commission.

Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Thanks,

Bill

 

Hey guys just so everyone knows Bill is 100% first class all the way. I bought my beloved Franck Muller from Bill and its one of my most prized pieces. Love the gold Rolex Bill!! GL with the sale my friend.

 

Thanks Mitch for your very kind words I also Loved that watch and i'm so glad it ended up with you!

 

Gorgeous watch, Bill.

And, your price is a good deal for a gold one.

GLWS.

 

Stunning in all gold!!

 

At $16,750, it's probably the best priced 18 k gold Daytona on the Internet !!!
Then add the fact that it just got back from a complete service and I have not had it on since !! it's just waiting for its new owner 😎
It is amazing to me that it still around
Eventually it's going to make somebody very happy.

Cheers

Bill
