The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116500LN is one of the brand’s most coveted watches. Even though it was launched in 2016, it still takes a while to get a brand new piece from retailers. That’s why the pre-owned market for this watch is booming. Even so, pre-owned Rolex Daytona 116500LN watches are priced not too far from their original price, and sometimes even more expensive. A closer look at each of the watch’s parts will surely tell you why it is such a worthy piece to own.
There is so much to love about both dials and, in all honestly, it is hard to choose between the two. They are both wonderful timepieces and it’s hard to pick just one if you have to pick one. The best way to know what is better for you is to see it in person and know which one appeals to you more.
With the change on the bezel, some people expected the layout to change as well. However, Rolex has retained the layout of the chronograph. The chronograph’s 30-minute sub-dial is located at 3 o’clock. In addition, the indicator for the running seconds is located at 6 o’clock. At the same time, you get a 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock.
Powering the replica Rolex Cosmonaut Daytona 116500LN is the Rolex Manufacture caliber 4130, the first in-house movement ever made by the brand. It is a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement that has been used in Rolex Daytona watches since 2000. The use of this movement marked the launch of the third generation of Daytona watches.
The great thing about the Rolex Calibre 4130 is that it is a monolithic workhorse. This means that it has fewer components and more reliable performance. The oscillator of this movement is equipped with the brand’s blue Parachrom hairspring. It is incredibly resistant to magnets. Therefore, it is a great choice when you are over a magnetic field. It is also resistant to any fluctuations in temperature, as well as shocks. Even if the temperature suddenly drops or rises, it remains very accurate. The accuracy of this movement is about +2/-2 seconds per day. This means that the movement is a certified chronometer.
With a power reserve of 72 hours, it is a very good watch to keep around. It remains faithful to its status as a timepiece made for racetracks and elsewhere.
A buying guide for Rolex Submariner date watches
If you are an avid collector, you probably have a watch or two in your drawer that is wound but hasn’t been worn in a long time. Perhaps the watch is no longer your style or your collection has outgrown it. If this is the case for you, then we highly recommend that you trade watches with us and use those funds to purchase a watch for someone special in your life to wear, admire and enjoy every day.
If you own a watch that is just sitting in your drawer anyway, this is a great opportunity to finally find a use for it. It’s also a wonderful sentiment, especially during the holidays, to take something that once meant something to you and use it to buy someone a gift you know they will cherish for the rest of their life.
For example, you might notice that someone doesn’t have a dress watch in their collection, and a beautiful 18k yellow gold Day-Date might fill that void. However, if they are an outdoorsman who doesn’t attend many events or dress up often, they probably won’t own a fake watch because they will never wear it.
If the bulk of their collection consists of stainless steel tool watches, a great alternative to a classic dress watch is a luxury sports watch that fits their lifestyle but adds a bit of modern glamour to their closet. That’s why we love watches like the Yacht-Master ref. 16622. This high-performance watch is extremely durable, but its luxurious solid platinum bezel looks more relaxed than the gorgeous gold and two-tone models. This choice adds a touch of luxury appeal that your loved one will appreciate but still fits easily into their everyday lifestyle.
Similar to their lifestyle, you’ll want to consider the way the person you’re buying dresses. If they spend 75% of their time in a suit and tie, you’ll want to consider an outfit that fits them better and allows them to easily fit into their closet.
On the other hand, if your friend is always dressed casually but stylishly, you may want to choose a two-tone watch that allows them to wear more or less. Or, it might be fun to give them something with a beautiful pop of color that you know they’ll be able to rock – like the vibrant blue Rolex Submariner or the Oyster Perpetual with its bright and vivid dial.
Introduction of Rolex reference 116900
The most important thing is that although it maintains the same caliber of 3130 as its precursor, it is now (finally) an official chronograph-certified frame. ref. 114200’s relatively short production cycle and its timer-level movement make it an interesting choice for collectors. It is easy to buy Rolex inexpensive replica watches in the secondary market that are much lower than most other Rolex models. It will not be surprising to see the value of Air-King ref. 114200 increase significantly in the future.
Nevertheless, as a welcome and carefully planned change, the days of this generation of Rolex Air Kings are numbered. In 2014, after more than 70 years of continuous production, it quietly withdrew entirely from the catalog. Many think this will be the last time we see it.
To everyone’s surprise, just two years later, a wholly different “Samurai Watch” appeared. It was ref. 116900. Sharing the 904L steel case with Milgauss ref. 116400, this newest version of the Rolex Air-King measures 40mm and has the same anti-magnetic properties as the well-known Rolex fake watch.
Just like the current Air-King 116900 and Milgauss, it also has the same Cal. 3131 movement, with a blue parachute hairspring and paramagnetic components. However, although the interior design is as modern as possible, the exterior is concerned with the historical role of the watch.
Only one version has been released. The dial has an explorer’s 3/6/9 hour index, but a prominent minute mark (white printing) is added, making it one of the most recognizable dials in Rolex’s current portfolio. A pilot’s model is perfect. The black dial is inspired by traditional cockpit instruments. ref. 116900 Air-King is also the brand’s first and only watch with two different colors of crown logo and “Rolex” title.
Nowadays, the official retail price of replica Rolex Air-King ref. 116900 is $6450. As one of the brand’s entry-level fake watches, it sells at the same price as watches such as Oyster Perpetual and Explorer. Like these two, it retains the essence of Rolex always doing the best; making durable fashion tool watches.
Rolex Air-King has a huge history, and one is still strong. In fact, its popularity today may be higher than ever. Whether you choose contemporary or classical models, it has unparalleled value.
Father’s Day is coming and Dad really wants a Rolex
There’s a lot to consider when choosing the right replica watch. Unlike other brands, which tend to have only one truly iconic piece in their portfolio, Rolex is anything but shy in choosing. Different case sizes, materials, ages, complexity and overall aesthetics offer a myriad of options to find the perfect Father’s Day watch.
Supposing you’ve so far narrowed the field down to pre-owned and not vintage, we’ve decided to break down some of the pros and cons of some of our favorite models from the brand to give you a bit of insight as you approach that big decision. In the end, personal preference is destined to succeed when it feels right on your wrist, but if you need some help picking out the perfect style for Dad, this guide can at least start guiding you in the right direction.
Being the classic to end all classics, the replica Rolex Submariner is the most logical jumping-off point for this list. Not only is it a true classic design and pedigree, but it’s also a fitting tool for a watch that works from day one to as many hits as you can throw at it. Because of its long history, there are many different models and references to choose from. However, the Submariner 16610 came to mind for this list as it strikes the right balance between modern functionality and slight vintage charm.
The Submariner 16610 is the ideal blend of fashion, functionality, and durability. With its striking blend of masculine features and delicate craftsmanship, the ref. 16610 is the perfect watch for the active father in your life. This particular model is comprised of an all stainless steel case, which showcases the gloss black dial bordered by a black bidirectional bezel. The dial features a luminous white hourly scale that gives you greater visibility underwater. The dial also has a sturdy Oyster bracelet made of hand-brushed stainless steel. The Rolex Submariner 16610 is the perfect choice for any Rolex collection, especially for an important father in your life.
The Submariner 16610 is the last reference from fake Rolex to feature an aluminum bezel insert – known to slowly fade with age and give the Sub a very special aesthetic characteristic – alongside the modern convenience of being fitted with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal rather than the acrylic crystals fitted to vintage models like the Submariner 5513. It was also powered by the Rolex 3135 and still powers modern submarine models. Finally, it has reached an ideal price position, as it is currently cheaper than its older predecessors and more modern counterparts, both of which have redesigned casings and ceramic bezels.
Let Rolex Explorer Polar Cool down the Hot Summer
The Rolex Explorer Polar fake watch is the very white-hot accessory to take you through the summer. The stainless steel body and bracelet gleam against that crisp white face and pop against tanned summer skin. To be honest, the Rolex Explorer II, nick-named for its striking white dial, will transition throughout the seasons. What’s more, it is an Explorer anyway. This sturdy, masculine timepiece is going to withstand incredible climates and the test of time with an Oyster case, high-visibility dial and luminous hands, 24-hour bezel, day and night tracker and self-winding mechanism. We’ll also note that Polar’s are exclusive to Explorer II’s, as the originals were only issued with the classic black dial. Now, let’s take a look at three of our favorites that we think would be amazing additions to your collection.
You might find that the dial on this Rolex Explorer II fake watch isn’t exactly crisp white, it’s creamier. It’s technically a manufacturing flaw, but because these watches were only made since those several years, these Explorer’s are extremely rare and sought after.
This replica watch was launched in a short window between the ref. 1655 and the ref. 16570 with a 40mm stainless steel case and a face that was originally white. Over the years a paint flaw has turned it this creamy ivory color, giving it this special look. We prefer how the hour markers also remained white, which makes them pop off of the dial even more.
Since you can spot two other rare elements, you should also take a close look at the face. First, check out how the letter ‘c’ in ‘Chronometer’ and ‘Certified’ line up perfectly above six o’clock. Then, peek at how the bezel — it’s thicker than the bezels Rolex’s issues today and are known as the ‘fat bezels.’ Of course, if you can get your hands on a ref. 16550, don’t pass up the opportunity to add it to your collection.
Even if this is a vintage replica Rolex, the aesthetics have effortlessly transcended time. The 40mm bezel is outfitted with a waterproof Oystercase and clasp, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and an impressive 3185 automatic movement which was brand new at the time. This model is outfitted with a red 24-hour hand and that famously luminous face that’s simple to read in just about any condition. This vintage Rolex is going to sit handsomely on your wrist all summer long as you brave the heat and sip cool drinks.
If you’re in the market for a more modern Explorer II, the amazing replica Rolex Explorer II ref. 216570 is going to be right up your alley. This 42mm watch is outfitted with modern characteristics like a 3187 calibre and a striking orange 24-hour hand like the original, completely different from the red featured on the other two models. However, apart from the contemporary upgrades, the most impressive feature of this timepiece is that brilliant white dial.
The Value of Rolex Submariner 5512, how much do you know?
A typical model within the fake Rolex’s archives, the Submariner watch was in production from 1959 until the late 1970s. During its 20-year production run, the Submariner 5512 underwent several enhancements such as modifications to the crown guards, caliber changes, and dial updates. Today, there’s a robust market for the Submariner 5512 among vintage replica Rolex watch collectors, therefore, their values are rising all the way. However, there is a myriad of factors that decided the current value of the rolex Submariner watch.
Even though the vintage Explorer replica watch goes by the nickname, “Steve McQueen,” that is not the Rolex watch the actor wore. Actually, the King of Cool wore a Submariner 5512 as his daily watch.
How to get a better understanding of this model? We have to look at how the model differed over the course of its history. Take the crown guards for example. When the model first came out it had square crown guards, followed by pointed crown guards and finally the rounder crown guards we’re now familiar with.
The dials of this model also evolved over its manufacturing run. Early models of the Submariner 5512 were made with non-chronometer certified movements, therefore did not consist of the ubiquitous “Superlative Chronometer Officially Certified” text on the dial. These versions are referred to two-liner Submariner 5512 since their glossy black dials only have two lines of (gilt) text. The four liner editions were first available with glossy dials with gilt text, followed by matte black dials with white printed text.
As expected, early examples of the Submariner fake watch generally have higher values than later models. The most coveted are the earliest examples that come with square crown guards. Good news for fans of the Submariner 5512 is that later models from the 1970s are substantially less expensive than older versions.
As interest in the vintage Submariner 5512 increases and more people realize that it’s much rarer to find than its sibling, it’s secure to note that its value will also continue to go up as well—at least for the foreseeable future. But like all vintage Rolex replica watches, it’s not just the year and design details that make a difference to the bottom line, but condition and provenance play a big part too.
Best Replica Rolex Datejust in Top Quality at Cheap Price
Not all the watchmakers are as iconic as Rolex replica, and few models as beloved as the Datejust. The mid-20th century classic defined the modern fake watch we know today, making features like a three-hand dial and the date standard. The Datejust has been remodeled and refined over the years – along the way, being worn by presidents and the rich and well-known alike. And while collectors might scramble over certain models, you’re also bound to find them wearing their very own Datejust.
This 18k white gold Datejust is a modern take on this timeless classic – outfitted with striking factors like the trademark crystal Cyclops date and a 36mm waterproof Oyster case. It’s these dignified features alongside modern additions that make this watch almost as iconic as its maker.
The Datejust changed what we expect from a watch forever; yet, we seem to forget how revolutionary this stunning watch was. Back in 1945, the Rolex Corp. revealed the first DateJust in celebration of their 40th anniversary – the date-changing mechanism inside making it the first automatic wristwatch of its kind. Today, we take this handy feature for granted. But upon looking at a modern Datejust, it’s impossible to lose sight of this watch’s timeless allure.
Since the 1940’s, there have been many variations of the Datejust watch. But the Datewatch 16139 pays special homage to the 1950’s and 1960’s Datejust with its 36mm size and classic features like the dial layout, a crystal scratch-resistant Cyclops date, automatic winding, the signature waterproof Oyster case and a satin-smooth 31-jewel movement.
The smaller face gives the fake watch a vintage appeal, yet the shoulders of the case are much broader than the design it was inspired from. It’s this delicate juxtaposition of substantial design and classical features that make this an everyday watch that still turns heads. It is a replica Rolex, after all.
This watch comes in many different dial types, colors and various bracelet selections – including the Jubilee, which was launched with the original Datejust. It’s the innate versatility and elegance of this watch that has made it the choice of the rich and famous both in the boardroom and out on the golf course over the years.
If you’re in the market for an everyday watch that still oozes with luxury, a Datejust fake model should be your top choice. This modern classic is the ultimate combination of performance and style, effortlessly bringing together world-class design with cutting-edge mechanisms.
The Datejust rolex is the kind of watch that can easily transition from daytime to date night or from the office to the court. And whether you have a hefty collection of luxury replica watches or you’re looking to make a first-time investment, we can unsure this watch will feel so good on your wrist you might never take it off – you certainly won’t need to.
The Great Replica Rolex
The greatest endurance racing event of the year is the 24 Hours of Le Mans, when well-known marques like Porsche, Bentley and Audi struggle for one of the most popular trophies in motorsport. Since 2001, Rolex Replica has been the Official Timepiece of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, even if actually the organization goes back much more: before the name Daytona was chosen in the 1960s Rolex intended to call its now iconic replica watch the Le Mans.
Rolex Replica cooperates with the FIA World Endurance Championship in addition to the three first-rate staying power events that have come to form the Triple Crown of endurance racing: the Rolex 24 At Daytona, the 12 Hours of Sebring and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Winners of the 24 Hours of Le Mans are provided a particularly impressed Rolex Daytona.
At this year, from June 17-18, the 85th, 60 cars will be challenging even if it’s more often than not been a competition between Porsche and Audi in the past 15 years. Like Ferrari and Mercedes at the Austrailian Grand Prix. Defending champion Porsche is predicted to face passionate competition this year from the likes of the new Ford GT and others. Rolex has an additional interest in Le Mans this year. Rolex Testimonee Tom Kristensen who has won Le Mans a evidence nine times, is celebrating the twentieth anniversary of his first success there. And Replica Rolex Testimonee, various Formula 1 Grand Prix winner and 2015 FIA World Endurance Champion Mark Webber will be the Grand Marshal for this year’s race, driving the pace car during the formation lap.
As far as Webber’s concerned, it is a great admiration for him to be Grand Marshal at this unique and unbelievable circuit, “It will be an amazingly stirring experience that starting the race. Having raced at Circuit de la Sarthe I know directly what are the drivers’ and teams’ feeling when they get ready for the long and exhausting 24 hours; Last of all, and try to at victory, the race demands a difficult mixture of rapidity and dependability. For the teams and drivers, the next few weeks are extremely significant at the time when they prepare for this mammoth race.” Webber is the person who has won his fair share of Replica Rolex Daytonas in a meaningful career in motorsports. The Rolex clock is ticking on the countdown to the 24 hours of Le Mans.
The Modern Milgauss Rolex Watch (And That Z-Blue Dial)
Rolex made some brave determinations when it reproduced the Milgauss in 2007, almost 20 years after removing it from their catalogue. And it had to. The company, which is known for making very subtle changes over long periods of time, took what was one of its plainest properties and added a healthy dose of color. For the new model, the replica Rolex went back to the lighting bolt shape for the seconds-hand, and ditched the clean and clinical polished stainless steel in favor of a bright orange hand. The minutes track and hour markers received the same color treatment. Perhaps the most disputable introduction was made with the Anniversary Model which came with a crystal that was lightly tinted green and which gave the dial a special halo. Rolex named it as the Glace Verte and claims it doesn’t have a patent on it because it is so hard to make.
After that, in the year of 2017, Rolex added a new blue dial glace verte model, and that’s when many people lost their minds a little (myself included). For the first time ever, a Milgauss was selling not just at retail, but way above it. All is because of that blue dial, which Rolex calls Z-Blue.
Just to be clear, this watch is almost the same with the other Milgauss models on a technical level. It comes in a traditional 40mm Oyster case that is generously polished, with Oyster bracelet made from 904L stainless steel that has a mix of brushed and polished finishes.
Dial side, the replica watch worked too, so Rolex made very some changes. As a matter of fact, all Rolex replicas really did was to improve on a solid base. Both the baton indexes and Chromalight display (which adds another, more subtle dose of color) were kept, as was the bright orange minutes track and the orange “Milgauss.” It’s rather different from the vintage models, but that’s the point, and I still like it.
The only real novelty of the Z-Blue model is the new dial, and boy did Rolex get it right. Blue is an easy option when a watchmaker wants to spice things up. It’s more versatile than the traditional colors of black, white, and silver, being more casual without being too eccentric. However, this blue is a little different, because this is a Rolex, and Rolex plays by its own rules. In fact, it’s a metallic blue that veers towards green depending on the light and the angle at which the light hits the brushed dial.
There’s something a little irreverent about this watch that makes it fun to wear.
So, what’s it like to wear? For lack of a better word, it’s just straight fun. This is a watch with a large number of personalities. It’s self-assured, and in complete denial of its previous unpopularity; scientific, and yet somewhat immature; rebellious, and yet so thoroughly rooted in Oyster conventions. It goes with everything, but never feels right with a suit. But most of all, it seems to know how unlikely it is someone will pick it up for its antimagnetic features – but it wouldn’t suffer one bit if you tested its resistance to magnetism.
The Z-Blue Milgauss looks great in any setting as long as you don’t dress it up too much. The thing is, from a practical standpoint picking a Milgauss is actually a very good selection. It’s everything you expect from Rolex in terms of build. It’s made with extremely resistant steel, it’s waterproof to 100 meters, antimagnetic to at least 1,000 gauss (if not more, much more), powered by a certified Superlative Chronometer movement; and, finally, it’s a very good looking timepiece, and it’s far from being the most expensive fake Rolex. Like I said, it’s a wise choice indeed.
