Let discuss when is a gold watch not a gold watch? Whatever, it’s Rolex’s darling, the Octo Finissimo Automatic, in rose gold. Now, apparently, it’s a gold watch, which is the most amazing watch that I’ve ever met with.
The Octo Finissimo case itself is a rather popular quantity by now. It’s a pretty thinner version of the regular Octo, which is an improvement of Genta’s original design. The Octo Finissimo Automatic is all sharp lines; the only curves to be seen are the bezel and the crown. The design of the case gives a very strong foundation for the replica watch, but what really made it shine is the case material and its unusual treatment. Instead of the more traditional polish, the case and bracelet of this Octo have been sandblasted, to stunning effect. The warm glow is there, but the gleam is not ¡ª factually, the matt is almost devoid of reflection.
Apart from the color of the dial, the dial remains the same. Simple printed details, minimal text, an off-center small seconds hand, and open, neatly faceted black hands. Now, normally I might say that this dial is too simple for the rest of the ensemble, but given that one of Rolex’s main goals would have been to work with some very tight tolerances, I’ll cut them some slack.
As expected, the bracelet of the Octo Finissimo Automatic is the same matt rose gold as the case, in the same angular, geometric style. And obviously, it weighs a good deal more than its titanium version, giving it a much more solid and substantial feeling on the wrist, while still being incredibly slender, particularly with the impressive folding clasp, which sits flush on the wrist. One interesting element of the bracelet that is special to the gold version is that the links, while solid, are hollowed out at the rear.
As I mentioned above, the weight-to-thinness ratio is real on this watch, and it’s this feeling of dissonance that got me every time I strapped it on. For me, that dissonance expressed itself in an almost childlike joy ¡ª I swear every time I wear this watch or even look at it, I get a big dumb grin on my face.
The gold fake watch is something deeply ingrained into our collective cultural psyche; it’s a signifier par excellence. For one thing, it’s indisputable that this is a gold watch. It’s a watch, it’s gold and it costs about the same as a nice European car. But for another, it’s an anti-gold gold watch, deliberately messing with the tropes (large, shiny) that give a gold watch its cultural weight.
I’ve seldom struggled with answering the ‘what would we change’ section as I have on this Rolex replica watch. It’s an integrated design, where all the parts play very nicely together. And it’s not intended as a generalist watch, so suggesting including some more crowd-pleasing traits.

A large number of Rolex watches have gained amazing nicknames since their launch, and among the various names ranging from athlete to soda flavors, there are many superhero nicknames, namely Batman and the Hulk. The Rolex GMT-Master II “Batman” and the Rolex Submariner “Hulk” with its blue and black ceramic bezel insert is the most famous replica Rolex watches with nicknames, but they are two completely different models – the Submariner is the diver’s watch and the GMT-Master II is the pilot/traveler’s watch. Which one is better?
Both Rolex watches have colorful design suites and all-steel construction, but they are actually not the same in terms of function. In addition, the Submariner Hulk is often seen as rather polarizing because of its bright green dial and bezel, while the Batman is arguably more versatile due to its more tonal colors. Today, we will explore this topic further by putting Batman and Hulk head to head in an attempt to answer the question of which superhero’s Rolex sports watch reigns supreme.??
Both Batman and Hulk have 40mm stainless steel cases, rotating bezels, similar dial design with Mercedes-inspired hands, date indications, and luminescent hour-markers charts. Both come with sapphire crystals and the familiar Cyclops magnifying glass on the date window.
Of course, since these watches offer different functions, they also run on different movements. The Hulk Submariner is powered by the Caliber 3135, while the Batman GMT-Master II depends on the Caliber 3186 or the Caliber 3285, of which the newer Cal. 3285 offers a longer 70-hour power reserve. What’s more, although both models are equipped with a Triplock screw-down winding crown, the Submariner is water-resistant to 300 meters, however, the GMT-Master II is water-resistant to 100 meters.
Heading on to the strap, the Hulk watch comes with a three-link Oyster strap with a brushed finish and a Glidelock buckle that allows the diver to lengthen the strap to 20mm in 2mm increments to fit the diving suit. The first fake Rolex Batman 116710BLNR was only available on Oyster straps with polished center links; however, the Batman 126710BLNR was initially available only on five-link Jubilee straps but was later available on three-link Oyster straps as well. The Oyster clasp differs from the Hulk in that it uses the 5 mm Easylink extension system rather than the 20 mm diver’s Glidelock clasp.
However, the Hulk is a dive watch, which means its bezel can only rotate in one direction and it is graduated to 60 minutes to track immersion time. On the other hand, Batman is a GMT watch. As such, its bezel rotates in both directions and is marked with 24 hours to show the time in another time zone.

Now we are enjoying the summer and I am wondering if you know what that means: new summer swag. We have an amazing lineup of hot-weather-friendly watches for you this week including a ton of steel dive replica watches and many other yellow gold numbers for those hot summer nights.
There is a Rolex replica which is one of the most sought-after vintage Rolex Submariners. With its perfect proportions and dateless dial, this watch is the ultimate dive watch. The example we have here dates to 1977 and features a “Pre-Comex” dial, which you can identify by the distinctive Coronet crown and those oversized tritium lume plots. We prefer this one for its creme brulee patina and its rough-and-tough look. What’s more perfect than a dive watch for summer? ?
The vintage Rolex Daytona seems ubiquitous in auction catalogs these days, but finding a nice yellow gold one always proves a challenge. Among all, this replica watch is one of the most actively pursued, especially with a black dial. Obviously, the appeal is easy to obtain, and the black bezel and back dial contrasting nicely with the yellow gold case. And the screw-down pushers give even more presence to the 37mm case, in addition to the increased water resistance (although we really don’t recommend exposing any vintage Daytona to water nowadays).?
The example here shows a sigma dial, with the small symbols placed at the bottom of the dial around the “T-Swiss-T” line. This denomination is consistent with the 1977 production date implied by the serial number engraved on the case. The tritium lume on the handset has taken on a nice patina, but you won’t fail to notice a couple of missing lume plots on the dial. The most important is, this fake Rolex Submariner kept its original pushers and its case was not excessively polished, as evidenced by the curves of the lugs. And the yellow gold rivet bracelet is just the sweet finishing touch, especially since its links keep tightly attached (loose stretch being common on those vintage bracelets).

It’s a cliche to call a Rolex submariner iconic, but few watches are more apt. Since its introduction in 1953, the Rolex submersible has been a prototype for contemporary diving watches, and almost every existing diving watch has been influenced in some way by the Rolex Submariner. The word “iconic” can be overused (especially in the luxury watch industry); the submarine, however, is a real icon.??
In addition to being one of the pioneers of replica watches, the Rolex Submariner has been able to remain at the forefront of diving watch technology. While traditional mechanical diving watches have been effectively replaced by modern diving computers, the Submariner was the first watch to introduce a range of functions and features that later became the industry standard for all diving watches.
Although replica Rolex Submariner has been in production for more than half a century, little has changed over the years. The design and appearance of Submariner have been updated as better technology and materials have become available; At its core, however, the current version of the Submariner is very much the same watch that Rolex first released to the public over 65 years ago.

Looking at our submarine history page, be sure to see the attached video, where to go for the entire history of the Rolex Submariner, from the very beginning in the early 1950s, inserted at the edge of the ceramic cutter and updated recently.

In spite of the various watches that Rolex provides, however, there are only four different styles of bracelets available. While the Pearlmaster bracelet technically counts as a bracelet option, it is made in extremely limited numbers and is particularly fitted to Rolex’s gem-encrusted, precious metal, Pearlmaster line of watches. All the rest of the replica Rolex’s various timepieces receive an Oyster, Jubilee, or President bracelet; however not all bracelet styles are available for all lines of watch, and some bracelets are only craft from special materials.
The Oyster bracelet is Rolex’s original in-house bracelet design, which is introduced during the late 1930s, and it is the only bracelet style that is available as a choice on every single line of Rolex watches. Besides, it is the only bracelet style that is manufactured in every single metal type/combination; and certain lines of fake Rolex watches, like the replica rolex Submariner and Explorer, are only available with an Oyster bracelet.
The Oyster bracelet uses Rolex’s iconic, three-link design, which has remained remarkably visually consistent since its initial introduction. The large, flat structure of its links makes it the most robust style of bracelet that Rolex manufactures, and it is the default option for many of Rolex’s professional lines of watches. Although the Oyster bracelet (like all other Rolex bracelet styles) has undergone a number of updates and improvements all these years, its overall appearance has remained greatly unchanged, and its aesthetic has become one of the defining traits of the Rolex brand.?
Initially launched in 1945, the Jubilee bracelet was particularly designed for the Datejust line of watches in celebration of Rolex’s 40th anniversary. When it was first introduced, the Jubilee bracelet was Rolex’s flagship offering and was only available in solid gold. However, since the President bracelet has become Rolex’s premier bracelet option, the Jubilee is now manufactured in every single metal combination except platinum and white gold.
The Jubilee bracelet uses a five-piece, semi-circular link design that has a more refined and elegant appearance than that of the Oyster bracelet. The Jubilee bracelet has undergone a number of updates and refinements throughout the years, just like other models, as Rolex continuously works to improve the reliability and functionality of their products. In years past, the Jubilee bracelet was fitted to a number of different lines of watches in the Rolex catalog; however, it is now only offered as an option on the Datejust and GMT-Master II lines of watches.
The overall appearance of the President bracelet is somewhat of a mix between an Oyster bracelet and a Jubilee bracelet. Its three-piece, semi-circular link design provides it with a more gorgeous look and feel than the Oyster bracelet; Contemporary President uses ceramic inserts inside the links for enhanced durability and is always fitted with Rolex’s Crownclasp, a concealed clasp design that creates a seamless effect throughout the band. However, the single, rounded center link gives it a less delicate appearance than the Jubilee bracelet, which uses three smaller links in the center.

The Rolex Submariner is one of the most iconic watches of all time, having gone through dozens of iterations since its release in 1953. In Reference Point: Understanding the replica Rolex Submariner, we dissect the Submariner and its sub-brands. In Understanding the Rolex Submariner, we dissected the Submariner and the subtle details that make each version unique.?
Within the broader product line, this fills a gap in the Rolex Professional line of dive watches. Rolex now offers the 40mm Yacht-Master, this new 41mm Submariner, the 42mm Yacht-Master, the 43mm Sea-Dweller, and the 44mm Deepsea (and one exception – the 37mm precious metal Yacht-Master).
This means that, in theory, you could walk into a Rolex AD and get yourself some variation of the Rolex Submariner anywhere in the 40-44mm range, with a variety of metal, dial, and bezel configurations available. Like all Rolex sports watches, this new Sub is likely hard to come by, and the idea of walking into a Rolex dealer and picking from a bunch of stock options is pure fantasy, but that’s another story entirely from tdccarcare.
Just as Rolex has introduced the latest generation of Chronergy-equipped movements over the past five years, it will be interesting to see if this new approach to professional cases and bracelets makes its way into other models. Frankly, I’d be surprised if it doesn’t. Rolex doesn’t do anything in a vacuum. Will the next GMT-Master feature thinner lugs? Or will the next Explorer have a different style of Oyster bracelet?
For many people around the world, the Rolex Submariner is the platonic ideal of a “good watch”. In many cases, it’s what comes to mind when you say the word “watch”. The oft-used word “iconic” simply doesn’t do the Submariner justice, so any changes to it are a big deal. In classic Rolex fashion, the Geneva-based watchmaker has chosen to whisper rather than shout, giving the Submariner a substantial upgrade that won’t leave Sub fans screaming for the good old days.

Barth tells of how he and his fellow crew members in an interview conducted by Jason Heaton back several years ago, while undergoing decompression in a decompression chamber, would hear a quick “pop” sometimes only to find that the crystal of someone’s fake watch – Submariners, Blancpain’s, and Tudors, mostly – had come off. The basic problem was the helium in the breathing gasses used in SEALAB. Helium forms very small molecules, which can over time penetrate the seals of a dive watch and build up in the case. Divers would spend a few days in a decompression chamber, where air pressure would gradually be lowered from that at working depth, to air pressure at sea level. The helium would not be able to leak back out of the watch case quickly enough and the result was increasingly greater pressure inside the watch case – often, enough to pop the crystal off. It was the SEALAB missions that first called for a helium escape valve, which was introduced within the fake Rolex range on the Sea-Dweller and remains a staple of this model to this day. ?
There are a few early Sea-Dwellers that have only one line of red text on the dial. These “Single Red” Sea-Dwellers are exceedingly rare, feature a depth range of 500m instead of 600m, and often times do not have a helium escape valve. These are prototypes and generally fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars at auction, such as this one did in 2013.
The Rolex Sea-Dweller replica watch was introduced in 1967 as Rolex’s biggest, badest, most capable dive watch. It was water-resistant up to 610 meters and featured two lines of red text reading “Sea-Dweller / Submariner 2000”. The crown was a Trip-Lock; the watch featured a date (useful to saturation divers who could spend days in a decompression chamber) and it was the first time a Rolex diver would feature the complication, predating the 1680 Rolex Submariner ever so briefly.
The bracelet had an extension clasp that allowed the owner to quickly open up the bracelet to allow it to fit on the outside of a diving suit. What’s more, the crystal was domed and cyclops-less. This is how the replica Sea-Dweller watch was born and how it remained for some time and over the years we would see continual improvements to water-resistant engineering in Rolex’s most professional line. Of course, we know it, actually after the Rolex replica killed the Sea-Dweller.

Submariner dive watches come from an era when dive watches were used more for professional applications than for recreational diving. That’s why they retain their original appeal today – because reading the time clearly during a dive is a matter of life and death. As a result, the clear and simple Submariner dial has remained unchanged. The hour and minute hands have been adapted from the replica Rolex Deepsea collection and are distinguished from each other to prevent any confusion. The triangular, circular, and rectangular markers are designed to provide direction and increased readability and to prevent possible errors underwater or on dry ground. The hands and markers are coated with Rolex Chromalight luminous material, which glows bright blue in the dark. The prominent dot at the end of the second’s hand serves as a function check and also glows. In addition, the zero markers on the diving bezel are filled with the same luminescent material to provide better positioning when setting the dive time.
The bezel ratchets perfectly counterclockwise in clear half-minute increments. Deep knurled recesses on the edge of the bezel provide a secure grip for wet hands or diving gloves. The rotating ring features a Cerachrom numeral insert made of special black ceramic. the recessed numerals and markers on the 60-minute track are coated with a thin layer of platinum using a PVD process. Rolex?replica has developed expertise and innovative manufacturing processes to create a special ceramic that is strong, color-saturated, and extremely scratch-resistant for the production of monobloc bezels and tracks, and now has its own completely independent production of ceramic components.??
The bezel with ceramic insert is part of the robust Oyster case, for which Rolex guarantees a pressure resistance of 30 bar, equivalent to a water depth of 300 meters. It is the epitome of durability and reliability. Its case frame is made from a single piece of stainless steel for exceptional corrosion resistance, which fake Rolex calls “Oystersteel”. In addition to the sealed case back, the Triplock winding crown ensures designated water resistance with a triple-sealed, screw-down design and a protective crown guard. The top crystal is made of scratch-resistant sapphire, and the Submariner Date adds a Cyclops magnifying glass at 3 o’clock to improve date readability.
The new Submariner is equipped with an Oyster bracelet, including its patented Oysterlock folding safety clasp and Glidelock extension system, which simply extends the bracelet up to 20 mm with a 10-step sliding element. So much for perfection without the need for revolution and still the undisputed standard in dive watches.
