I would NOT do it. You need to go and try on the Zenith 16520 before buying. They are light and small, and extremely hard to read the time. I own a few, I shouldn't bad mouth it. It's a great watch, but it's not something you would want to wear everyday. The hype would soon die down ...

Yes I would, of course that is based on the tritium Daytona being in great condition and a complete set.

I have a few zeniths too and love them, only thing holding me back is I probably never own another BLNR at these crazy prices.... the 16520 is full set and real nice shape

Depends if you're doing it from a standpoint of money/investment or love of watches.
If it's the former, the Daytona has more potential. If it's the latter, I wouldn't do the deal. I find the 5 and 6 digit Daytonas way over-rated and over-hyped, and not really that attractive. (I've owned several. Had to try them.) Still, that's a personal preference. |

I’ll never part with my BLNR. I would recommend the same.

BLNR is going stratospheric and is no longer available. Get a Daytona only if you don't want to be able to tell the time.
