Does someone know if current 116520 have correct engravings between lugs? Or is it engraved 116500?

Do not forget Johnny Depp's franken 116500 with gen dial
I meant the best among the rep bro ;-)
I have accepted this as it was the only one available.
Does the bezel look like it needs rotating back ( Anti clockwise ) very slightly or on the wrist will it be ok.
Can you turn it without removing it ?
Yes it is off
No you have to remove it
But otherwise the watch looks fantastic, the case is noticeably improved from the front anyway
The guy who can spot the crown from across the street - give him a break, his crown looks like it's been through a titanium blender.
I still wouldn't spot it from across the street though, I can't even read the subtitles on the telly after lockdown destroyed my vision

With my cataracts I can barely see the watch !
It was after making the pictures bigger I spotted it
To be honest, if you swap the gasket the modder could straighten the bezel for you easy enough. Problem solved!

I looked at the cousins gaskets and they looked white as well. Is the gen gasket clear ?
Does the Crystal come off if you remove the bezel or can the bezel be lifted then reseated by itself.
I wasn’t sure how tight it is fitted, could it be turned by just twisting it ?
in your opinion is v4 crystal acceptable or do you recommend something other than gen?

I think most people will agree that the v4 crystal is fine.

I have Prof 2X on all my daytonas. It's beautiful. Not gen spec, better!
I love it, it's really something beautiful, and makes the dial so much more enjoyable. Huge upgrade. And if anybody asks, I tell them its aftermarket upgrade with AR, cause Rolex was too lazy to do it.

Hey how water resistant are these watches? I was wondering if I could clean it under a sink or wear it in a hot tub lol

You can't assume that they are. You might get lucky, or not. Best is to get it water pressure tested
Daytona is designed for you to wear while driving in a car, not for swimming or diving, lol
The Rolex Oyster case is designed for you to wear when swimming or diving, lol.
However, as Tobel rightly says, never assume your Chinese Rolex Oyster copy has left the factory in a water tight condition - always assume it hasn’t. And if (for some unfathomable reason) you feel the desire to wear it in water, then get it tested first.
