2 Tone Daytona 16523 check

Guys, please can you help a friend with this watch. I've seen it and it looks a bit polished, definitely all legitimate, but I thought the dial was from a solid gold Daytona. It's apparently a 1989, but I haven't seen serial number yet.
Thanks a lot

Hey Gina, thanks a lot. I feel the same way. It's the dial that I have really only seen on the all gold model though that I'd like info on
