I originally looked at the zenith because it was 316L and not 904L. I was looking at a few two tones and steel, but I saw this one and I could tell I loved it. Still learning about Daytona's but it seems they only made the gold strap 16518 with inverted dial for a year or two since it was released in 1992 and the dial was replaced with a later version in 1994 or so.
