I have the 116520, white and just gave it to my wife. Both the white and black dial are not very legible. I mean for a time check yes, and I can even get past the shine. But I use my chrono to time things that need to me timed precisely at work. If you look at the minute subdial, there is not enough hashmarks around the 10, 11, 12 then 19,20 and then 29. I was timing something that needed accurate timing and could not tell if it was 10,11, or 12 minutes. This is simply not ever an issue with my speedy. Likewise the issue has been on all daytonas even the 116500. I believe they used to have enough hashmarks in the ones in the mid 1980’s but the issue came with the change to the auto movement. At any rate, a watch that I can’t use is simply jewelry so I passed it onto my wife who is happy with it and never uses the chrono.
