INCOMING... wow...
So I was only a FEW YEARS late to the party.. but finally found the 15300st in BLUE. Much like the previous generation Zenith Daytona, I think this beaut just simply gets better with time. The symmetry, proportion and details on this bird is just sick.. completely blown away here wow..
Thanks again for the inputs given during my search here and have a great snow day ahead!

Thanks guys! I have to give brother Howie a nice shout out and educating me about the RO. I was completely ignorant and did not give myself a chance to be exposed to this beautiful model. She wears better than the 5711 for me and just appreciating this beauty in the snow today... simply perfect.

You are dead on here, Fred. I had the 15300 in rose gold - stunning piece - and as much as I love the 15202 I just prefer to have a date quickset and second hand, while keeping it 39mm. Well done!
And whenever you want to sell that 16520 you know who to call... :-) |

That bezel bolt at 5 o’clock is raised – get it sunk like the rest have correctly been!
That’s pre-owned, isn’t it? I hope you got it for the right price, given the state of the polishing on the edge of the case/lug interface. |

Thank you gents and thank you Ken! This watch is definitely dressier (I am usually button down and sneakers) but it just works and beautiful. Thanks again for your insight during my search. Yes, the blue is very nice on the 15300 and almost has a vintage hue. I like it a lot. |
