Details needed for daytona purchase

[deserted]

I have some questions to ask the intellegent watch aficiandos of daytona owners or anybody with in depth knowledge.

1) Does the watch come with hack mechanism when the crown is pulled out

2) Does the smaller chronos move or are activated by the screw down push buttons.

Need advice, monday is the day, thanks.

Does the 4130 work different then the Zenith models?

My Daytona Start/Stop is the top pusher and reset is the bottom pusher.

No, my 4130 is reset back to 12 by the bottom pusher.

This is such an odd question........ Are you buying new from an Authorized Dealer ??

The early Daytonas do not hack, only the new ones..

The sub dial seconds always moves - it is the main seconds dial, but it is in a different location on early models. Early at 9, and the new ones at 6.

On all Daytonas, the other sub dials total the movement of the main seconds sweep-hand. Usually a minute and an hour timer .......
