'''Paul Newman dial.''' Singer-made Cosmograph dial with art-deco block markers, cross-hairs on the sub-dials, and 15/30/45 numerals on the 30-minute register. Fitted to six manual-wind references: [[Reference:6239|6239]], [[Reference:6241|6241]], [[Reference:6262|6262]], [[Reference:6263|6263]], [[Reference:6264|6264]], and [[Reference:6265|6265]]. Full treatment on [[Reference:paul-newman-daytona|Paul Newman Daytona]].

'''Mk1 through Mk4.''' Collector~~-consensus typology~~ for the Paul Newman dial~~, formalised by Stefano Mazzariol and carried into English-language editorial~~. Mk1 ~~(1963–1967) gilt-printed text,~~ no Daytona ~~signature.~~ Mk2 ~~(1966–1969) Daytona script added.~~ Mk3 ("Big Eyes", ~~1969–1972) larger sub-dial outer rings.~~ Mk4 ~~(1972–1988) narrower block markers; includes~~ the ~~Sigma sub~~-~~branch~~. See [[Reference:paul-newman-daytona#mark-1-through-mark-4-progression|Mk progression table]].

'''Mk1 through Mk4.''' Collector shorthand for the four main Paul Newman dial generations. Mk1 has no Daytona line, Mk2 adds it, Mk3 is the Big Eyes generation, and Mk4 is the late narrow-marker run. See [[Reference:paul-newman-daytona#mark-1-through-mark-4-progression|the full progression table]].

'''Big Eyes.''' The Mk3 sub-mark of the Paul Newman dial, named for the visually larger sub-dial outer rings. 1969–1972 production.

Line 77:

'''MK7.''' U/A/P-serial (1998–2000). Super-LumiNova replaces tritium; SWISS MADE replaces T SWISS T.

'''Patrizzi dial.''' ~~MK4 sub~~-~~branch~~ where the varnish over the silver sub-dial ~~outer~~ rings ~~reacts with light and air and~~ turns brown~~, ranging from light beige to deep chestnut~~. Named for Osvaldo Patrizzi~~, founder of Antiquorum~~. ~~Eligibility~~ window ~~1993–1995 per Revolution (Povey); 1993–1997 per Sotheby's Zenith guide (Orrico)~~. ~~Documented on [[Reference:16518|16518]], [[Reference:16519|16519]], [[Reference:16520|16520]], [[Reference:16528|16528]]. Period-correct degradation~~ is ~~asymmetric~~ across sub-dials; ~~evenly-painted "Patrizzi" reads as~~ a ~~refinish~~.

'''Patrizzi dial.''' Zenith-era dial where the varnish over the silver sub-dial rings turns brown. Named for Osvaldo Patrizzi. Most sources place the window in the mid-1990s. Real Patrizzi ageing is usually uneven across the three sub-dials; a perfectly even effect is a warning sign.

'''Darth Vader.''' 16520 variant where the silver sub-dial chapter rings have faded to a near-black tone — the inverse of the Patrizzi browning. Documented by Sotheby's (Orrico 2025).

'''Cal 727.''' Final manual-wind Daytona caliber. The 1969–1970 transition lifted the beat from 18,000 to 21,600 vph. Used in [[Reference:6262|6262]], [[Reference:6263|6263]], [[Reference:6264|6264]], [[Reference:6265|6265]] through 1988. See [[Reference:Movements#cal-727|cal 727]].

'''Cal 4030 (Zenith Daytona).''' ~~First automatic Daytona movement, a heavily modified~~ Zenith El Primero ~~400~~ base. 28,800 vph ~~(reduced from El Primero's 36,000)~~, 31 jewels, ~~COSC~~, free-sprung ~~Breguet~~ balance ~~with Rolex Micro-Stella regulating system~~, ~~no date function~~. ~~Power~~ reserve ~~52h per Revolution / 54h per Hodinkee (dispute preserved). Used 1988–2000 in the 16518 / 16519 / 16520 / 16523 / 16528~~. See [[Reference:Movements#cal-4030|cal 4030]].

'''Cal 4030 (Zenith Daytona).''' Zenith El Primero base, heavily reworked by Rolex and used from 1988 to 2000. Core points: 28,800 vph, 31 jewels, no date, free-sprung balance, COSC. Published power reserve is usually 52 or 54 hours. See [[Reference:Movements#cal-4030|cal 4030]].

'''Cal 4130 (in-house chronograph).''' Rolex's first wholly in-house chronograph movement. Vertical-clutch coupling, column-wheel switching, 72-hour power reserve, 44 jewels, 28,800 vph, COSC. Used 2000–2016 in the 116520 / 116523 / 116528 (and continues in post-2019 ceramic-bezel successors). See [[Reference:Movements#cal-4130|cal 4130]].
