Literature For another example of a reference 16520 with porcelain dial and suspended logo , please see Ultimate Rolex Daytona by Pucci Papaleo , page 540 to 543 .
In the late 80s during the evolution of the automatic Daytona , early examples can be found where the ‘ Cosmograph ’ signature is suspended below the four lines of text above it and the word ‘ Cosmograph ’ appears to float . The present reference 16520 has been kept in very well preserved condition and is fitted with a special porcelain dial featuring the ‘ floating ’ signature .
