Like celebrities with only one name, Daytona is a watch superstar. Its official name is Rolex Cosmograph Daytona, but it is better known as Daytona. Daytona has been around for nearly 60 years, and there are many styles to choose from, as well as many of the hottest styles. It was a replica Rolex Daytona, and all the collectors were dumbfounded. Why is that?
Manufactured from the early 1970s to the late 1980s, the Daytona 6263 is one of the last versions of the hand-wound Daytona models ever produced. As such, it brought together all the enhancements Rolex had tinkered with from past versions into one reference. The Daytona 6263 featured a waterproof Oyster case complete with screw-down chronograph pushers borrowed from the ref. 6240, the updated Valjoux 727 of the ref. 6264/6262, and the black tachymeter bezel introduced by the ref. 6241. Whether in steel or gold, with a standard dial or the coveted “Paul Newman” dial, the Daytona ref. 6263 is one that collectors recognize as a grail watch.
In 1988, Rolex finally switched over from Valjoux-based manually wound movements to Zenith El Primero-based automatic movements for the Daytona collection. Along with the new caliber, Rolex also revamped the style of the automatic Daytona to include a bigger case, metal tachymeter-engraved bezels only, and dials with rings around the trio of registers.
The reference model 16520, a stainless steel version of the then-new automatic Daytona, was a hit with consumers from the start, unlike previous hand-wound versions. The “Zenith” Daytona ref. 16520 features a stainless steel 40mm Oyster case with screw-down chronograph pushers, a matching steel Oyster bracelet, and it came with the option of a white or black dial.
However, all Rolex Daytona 16520 models are popular with collectors because this is the reference that jump-started the automatic Daytona lineup (which would eventually be filled with in-house made movements in 2000).
Rolex typically likes to come out with a special model to mark a milestone anniversary of a collection. And in 2013, fake Rolex introduced the platinum ref. 116506 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Daytona. This was the first platinum Daytona ever offered to the public and the only watch to come fitted with a brown Cerachrom ceramic bezel. There’s also the familiar “ice blue” dial exclusively reserved for platinum Rolex watches, with an option of standard lume filled indexes or baguette-cut diamond hour markers. Added to the watch’s main weight is the full platinum, solid link oyster bracelet. Anniversary Rolex replica watches have long been the focus of Rolex collectors, and platinum toners are no exception.

Longines’ master collection has been the home of Longines for about 15 years, as its more traditional pieces draw on classic watchmaking techniques rather than full-blown retro. The latest addition is this set of low-key moon phases. There are seven different executions, all based on the same basic layout, utilizing the central run seconds and the subdial, including the date and moon phases. This is a very traditional practice and one of the time-tested complications of the replica watch industry.
Of the seven different cases, you’ll find that two different case sizes — 40mm and 42mm — are made of stainless steel, with a choice of embossed leather strap or steel strap. Do you want a silver dial with Arabic numerals? I see. How about a daylight blue dial with a diamond marker? You can have that too. All models are powered by the Longines L899, a version of the ETA A31. The L91 was made specifically for them (remember, eta is also part of the swatch group). As for pricing, what you see is a hair without diamonds for less than $2,500 and a hair with diamonds for just under $2,800. Not bad. The result is a range of fake watches that meet many criteria and should appeal to first-time buyers and enthusiasts.
Diamonds are interesting. For real, I think many of my colleagues would agree with me that there is a certain point in every collector’s replica watches journey when something more dazzling starts to become more attractive, no matter how conservative your tastes. You can certainly satisfy this desire with something completely exaggerated, but you can also choose something more low-key. Like vintage Datejusts or Seamasters with diamond markers and the like, I put these new fake Rolex watches into the latter category. The dial has quite a few colors and variations, not to mention the size of the two cases, but for me, the black lacquered dial and diamond markings are clearly highlighted. Wear it on a beautiful strap and you can buy a fancy dress watch for less than $3,000. I’ll basically co-sign it.

Rolex watches are almost the most famous models among watch branded collectors. However, some like them, while others can’t wrap their heads around the mixing of two metals on one fake watch. As die-hard fans of two-color Rolex watches, we clearly belong in the first camp. If you’re not sure if you can keep up with the two-tone luxury watch trend, check out these three modern two-tone Rolex replica watches, which may well lead you in the right direction.

Rolex has been making two-tone watch steel and yellow gold watches since the 1930s. To be honest, the company trademarked the name “Rolesor,” which is the official Rolex term for its two-tone watches.

So, let’s start with an updated classic—a two-tone Rolex Datejust 41 ref. 126333. Classic because of the ref. 126333 has all the Datejust traits we’ve come to know and love and updated since it’s part of the larger and upgraded Datejust 41 collection.

The Datejust 41 model sports a (naturally) 41mm stainless steel case topped with the familiar fluted bezel in yellow gold and decorated with a yellow screw-down winding crown. Carrying on the golden hue is the champagne dial, which is home to luminescent baton hour makers or diamond hour markers and the amazing date window at 3 o’clock.

Apart from the dress fake watch, two-tone Rolex watches also come in sportier styles. Take for example the two-tone Rolex Submariner replica. The combination of robust stainless steel, precious 18k yellow gold, and ultra-modern black ceramic come together to make one much more attractive Submariner.

The new model in this two-tone Rolex roundup, the Sky-Dweller ref. 326933 made its debut at Baselworld 2017. This was the first time Rolex made a half-gold model of the Sky-Dweller available, thereby significantly dropping the entry price of their annual calendar watch.

The Rolex Sky-Dweller watch features a large 42mm Oyster case made even more prominent thanks to its yellow gold fluted bezel. While the fake Sky-Dweller is one of the few Rolex watches available with leather bands, the appeal of a two-tone Oyster bracelet is difficult to resist. Although Rolex has had two-tone watches in its catalog for eight decades, these modern versions show that wearing a mix of steel and gold is far from obsolete. Two-color Rolex watches emphasize that some typical patterns are worth long-term favorites.

Aside from innovation, finishing, and extraordinary history, sometimes the really exciting part of a watch is its dial. In this article, we’re not just talking about the blue Rolex dial. For decades, the Rolex brand has been creating special variations on several of its replica watches with dials that are completely different from traditional ones. In some cases traditional techniques are used, in other unconventional materials are used, and either way, the end result is very special.
First, you see a familiar fuzzy dial from Rolex — a linen dial. Its name is very self-explanatory because the texture applied to the dial is very similar to what you see when looking at linen fabric. This pattern has emerged in Rolex CEO and dates only the pattern back to the 1960s.
For the 40th anniversary of the Datejust in 1985, Rolex unveiled what was the starting of an ongoing series of specially patterned dials using the Rolex name in a stylized repeating font. In some cases, the all-over pattern can be quite bold and overpowering, but in other instances, it can be incredibly subtle. Without looking too close, you would almost mistake certain Rolex Jubilee dials for more natural patterns – precisely what makes me a huge fan of the more under-the-radar examples.
Stone dials are now ubiquitous in watchmaking, and products like malachite and aventurine have become surprisingly popular. That said, when was the last time you saw a wood dial? There have certainly been some here and there, but overall they are miles rarer than most other material dial options. Most can be found on Rolex watches from the 1970s and 1980s, and when combined with a yellow gold case and bracelet, it is about as quintessential ’80s as it gets.
The early to mid-2000s Cellini Prince models are a very particular breed for many reasons, being the last of the hand-wound Rolex watches out there, and the only ones fitted with a sapphire crystal display back. That said, their dials are also exceptional in a lot of cases. The 18k yellow gold example uses a gold plate with an old-school hobnail pattern that also appears on the bridges of the movement. The choice of the dial is very suitable for its rectangular art deco style case, although it has a very old/traditional atmosphere, it is still very cool. This fake watch isn’t for everyone, but it’s sure to impress any self-respecting watch lover.
Last but not least, we have one of the strangest Rolex dial – flower dials. These are still in current production and are rarely promoted by Rolex as a brand. Provided in a 36mm case, these things are simply strange considering the unisex standards. Flower patterns with a bit of cartoon/graphic are carved on the sundial and clocks with or without diamond time markings can be found at 6 o’clock and 9 o’clock.

The future of luxury imitation timepieces is either doomed or never to fail, thanks to a growing appreciation for the tradition of good watchmaking. But just in case, copies of Tag Heuer wear their new golf watches on both sides of the course, depending on whom you talk to.
However, TAG also unboxed a new Connected Modular 45 ‘Golf Edition’ watch. A sportier version of the Connected 45 collection that the fake TAG originally released with a cameo in the last Kingsman movie, it’s billed as a combination of advanced watchmaking with golf-friendly technology, for those looking to improve their performance on the links.
That’s the new TAG Heuer Golf app which features 3D renderings of more than 39,000 courses, designed to be the best tool for enthusiasts of the sport. The replica TAG Heuer Connected Modular 45 ‘Golf Edition’ combines a golf-inspired design and shock-resistant materials, featuring a black ceramic bezel that is engraved with a scale of 1 to 18 indicating the number of holes in a round of golf.
The watch’s touchscreen is covered with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and it’s decorated with several sensors including GPS, NFC, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, and a microphone. Moreover, it has the function of sending messages, receives notifications, plays music, and download other apps. The luxury smartwatch movement is still in its infancy and the Tag Heuer replica is actually aiming to carve out a fair-sized market share.
One could even state that the Connected Modular 45 ‘Golf Edition’ is “the 21st century equivalent of the original vintage sports fake watches from the 1950s and 1960s that are now so respected by collectors,” notes one industry observer. And while this watch will never be a collector’s piece, it may yet mark a historical milestone in hybrid watchmaking and marketing.
Therefore, no matter if you’re into TAG’s re-issued and re-created heritage designs, which are actually mid-century sports replica watches, or their advanced sport-specific smartwatches just like this one, which is more next-century, there’s no denying the brand is embracing both the future and the past and hoping that both can flourish and coexist.

I have two questions “Did they do it? Did they do the Worldtimer in steel?” It was only the second day at Baselworld 2019, and already the replica Omega was showing its newest novelties in secret, but to retailers only —no media was present and no photos were taken. For the past two exhibition cycles, I’ve been anxiously waiting for the 2015 platinum halo edition to make its way into the regular collection — and this must be the year.
“It’s amazing. It’s seriously gorgeous,” he added breathlessly, as though adjectives failed him in that particular moment. What I didn’t know is that fake Omega had not just shown him the blue-dialed Worldtimer in steel, but also an equally gorgeous Sedna gold variant with a stark white dial that complements the laser-ablated map relief in the center perfectly. Wait, laser-what?
It is just the laser-ablated. It is how Omega replica has rendered the gnomonic projection of the earth at the center of the dial in such staggering detail. Actually, the dial center’s grade 5 titanium surface is zapped with a laser at varying levels of intensity, creating chemical reactions that yield an equal variety of intense textures and colors, meant to evoke the planet’s seas and landmasses, encircled by a glass 24-hour ring. But what really surprised me about seeing this dial in the flesh is just how much depth and dimensionality it hides — not the same with the textured rotating globe that you might remember from geography class. The visually striking end result uses super-modern manufacturing methods to achieve the time-honored tradition of putting a map in the center of a world timers dial.
The rest of the eggshell-white dial is rendered in a somewhat traditional world timer manner: You have the beveled applied hour markers, a deep, tonneau-shaped date aperture at 6 o’clock, and subtle longitudinal striping, which seems a bit like the vertical “teak-deck” style dials from the 8500-series generation of Aqua Terra watches.
Functionality-wise, fake Omega’s new Worldtimer runs similar to a traditional GMT watch, albeit one whose information is simply presented in a different way. Rather than a 24-hour hand running around the center of the dial, as Omega did with its Calibre 8605-powered Aqua Terra GMT of year’s past, we now have a rotating 24-hour disc, which simply reads the local time in each of the world’s primary time zones.
Speaking of which, I had a love or dislike relationship with the Aqua Terra GMT of year’s past. On one hand, it was amazing, super legible, strongly water-resistant, and was full of a globetrotting movement that dunked on any of its contemporaries, making it a serious contender for true GMT supremacy.
At 43mm by 15.5mm, the new Worldtimer is hardly a small watch, but the fake Omega’s edits to this larger case included shortening and sharpening its twisted lugs, which now taper in a steeper downward angle, cutting the overall lug-to-lug measurement to 50mm and enabling the Rolex replica watches to sit closer to the wrist. Even in solid gold, and weighing just over 150 grams, it still wears comfortably, owing to the highly supportive leather strap which pushes directly downward from the lugs, rather than out and down, as stated in the previous generation. Everything about the redesign reinforces the fact that the original case size, and even weight, of the watch, is secondary to the design of the earpiece — Omega nailed it here.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll repeat it, that the world time traveler’s good watch is conspicuously lacking. When I say “yes,” I mean those that can easily adjust the hour hand while observing “family” or “global time,” and that is waterproof enough that the wearer doesn’t stop when looking at a hotel pool or seaside vacation halfway around the world.

Fans of Rolex replica watches are familiar with the plethora of nicknames on some models. Some are fitting, like the “Paul Newman” while others are rather unlucky, like the “Smurf. So, “whatever you think about Rolex nicknames, they’ve been around for a long time and don’t seem to be going away anytime soon. Rolex’s chief executive has been a nickname for decades, and the watch’s official name is Rolex Day-Date. But did you know that Rolex’s iconic precious metal dress watch is also known as Texas Timex?
Texas native Lyndon B. Johnson acted as the 36th president of the United States from 1963 to 1969. In Rolex collecting communities, he was also famous as the first U.S. President to wear the Rolex Day-Date watch publicly and it is presumed that he is the reason that the replica watch picked up the “Rolex President” nickname. Actually, Rolex released an advertisement in 1966 proclaiming that the Day-Date was “The President’s Watch,” no doubt alluding to President LBJ’s timepiece choice.
Fellow Texans became so addicted to the solid 18k yellow gold Rolex status watch that local jewelers couldn’t keep up with demand and waitlists for the Day-Date began forming. Oil-producing Texas was flush with cash and the state’s mantra of “Everything’s Bigger in Texas” was just the right environment for Rolex’s flashiest watch to become the essential timepiece.
By the mid-1980s, more and more fake Rolex watches were sold in Texas than in any other state in the country. In 1983, a yellow gold Rolex Day-Date started at $7,950 at retail. Yet in spite of the hefty price tag, the replica watch became so popular in certain circles that it was taken as the Texas Timex. This is surely in reference to the cheap and common watch brand. The “Texas Timex” name soon expanded to refer to any solid yellow gold Rolex watch.
The appeal of Rolex is still powerful in Texas. Apart from being home to one of Rolex’s own Service Centers, the brand’s official website lists 33 authorized retailers in the Lone Star State, including a stand-alone boutique in Houston. Only California surpasses it with 40 authorized retail locations present in the state.

British army officer and renowned mountaineer Tony sterilizer Aube was the first man to reach two mountains above 25,000 feet. Phillips will always be the auction house’s new platform, designed to “provide the best collectors of replica watches with private sales planning, programming, private sales, exhibitions, and innovative partnerships”- a move associated with the classic car market, where many truly top dollar examples such as the legendary Ferrari 250 GTO are offered through private sales. The Rolex Explorer 6105 is expected to be sold at a bargain price, which could be much higher if it piqued collectors’ interest.
Streather was given the fake watch by Rolex in 1955 when he was going to climb Kangchenjunga, one of the world’s highest peaks, located on the border of Nepal and India. He had scaled K2, the world’s second-highest peak, in 1953, the same year Sir Edmund Hillary, whose feat encouraged the Explorer, famously conquered Mt. Everest.
Leather, who later reached the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the British Army’s famed Gloucestershire Regiment, died last year at the age of 92, and the watch now comes from his estate. Leather wore this ref. 6105 Explorer on the historic climb, proving Rolex’s claims about its reliability, and helping to establish the brand as the pinnacle of luxury sports watchmakers.

“Tony Streather was an amazing man,” says James Marks, Phillips’ International Specialist and Director of Watches. “His Rolex 6150 Explorer is a particular piece of history for the brand. Phillips Perpetual is proud to present the watch worn by Streather
In the 1960s, while furthering this military career, Streather was given a NATO strap for the replica watch which is now featured on it to this day. This historically meaningful replica Rolex Explorer also comes accompanied by an assortment of Streather memorabilia, which surely adds to its appeal in our mind and provides context for an important timepiece that should probably be in a museum.
