The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona reference 16520 holds a special place among collectors, and this black-dial example from 2000 is powered by the automatic Zenith movement — a configuration that preceded the transition to Rolex's own 4130 caliber, making it among the final references produced with this storied engine.
The 40mm round case is fitted with a fixed bezel, screw-down crown, and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Luminescent index hour markers and luminescent hands populate the black analog dial, while the chronograph complication delivers hour, minute, and second functions. The bracelet is secured by a fold clasp and carries the Swiss Made designation.
This example is presented in pristine condition and comes accompanied by its original Rolex box and original Rolex papers, offering a complete package for the discerning collector seeking a well-documented piece from this sought-after reference.
