The 50th Anniversary Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona Replica Of The Rolex

The first Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona replica - a wrist replica in a steel case with a manual winding chronograph movement named after the famous race track - was released in 1963 and has been produced in several versions since then. (Newman regularly and famously wore a Daytona when he started racing in the 1970s; a few scarce models have what collectors now call the Paul Newman dial, '' with block indices and reticle on the subdials.) This model, however, is the very first Daytona with a platinum case. The color scheme - a dial-in what Rolex calls "ice blue" and a bezel in what it calls "maroon" is also unprecedented in the collection. The Swiss replica, which Rolex's press materials refer to as a 'prestigious edition' in http://www.perfectwatches.org/ much higher than most Daytona models. Rolex admits that the new timepiece is not available to every Daytona fan, but that the intention with the anniversary piece had always been to create something unique and exclusive. The Daytona's trusted tachymeter ring, a key element in its identity as a racing imitation watches, is made from Rolex's proprietary Cerachrom material, an extra-hard, corrosion-resistant ceramic, with the engraved numerals and graduations covered in a thin layer of platinum via a PVD process (physical vapor deposition). The wearer can use the tachymeter scale, in conjunction with the chronograph, to measure average speeds of up to 400 miles (or kilometers) per hour.

The Rolex Daytona Replica case measures 40mm in diameter and claim a water resistance of 100 meters (330 feet). The case is made in Rolex's signature Oyster style and is crafted from a solid block of 950 platinum and has a polished finish. The ribbed caseback is hermetically screwed on with a unique tool exclusive to Rolex replica makers. Equipped with Rolex's patented Triplock water-resistance system, the winding crown is screwed tightly against the case and protected by a crown protector integrated into the center of the case. The chronograph pushers are also screwed on tightly. The glass is made of scratch-resistant sapphire. The outer scales on the chronograph subdials are made of maroon lacquer, which matches the bezel and contrasts strikingly with the ice blue dial, and has 18k white gold bezels. White gold is also used for the applied hour markers and hands, which are covered in Chromalight, a luminous substance that emits a blue glow that Rolex claims last longer than eight hours.
The timepiece that powers this special edition of the Cosmograph Daytona is the Rolex-manufactured Caliber 4130, a self-winding column-wheel chronograph movement that is also a COSC-certified chronometer. The watch has a vertical clutch, a bidirectional rotor on a ball bearing, and an oscillator with a coil spring made of blue Parachrom, another exclusive Rolex patented material with exceptional resistance to magnetic fields. Hair springs made of Parachrom, an alloy of niobium, zirconium, and oxygen, are said to remain stable through temperature changes and be much less sensitive to shocks and remain ten times more accurate in the event of shocks than a traditional coil spring, according to Rolex. The replica is currently only available on an Oyster bracelet with solid 950 platinum links - which is undoubtedly another factor in the high price. The bracelet features Rolex's Oysterlock safety clasp, which prevents accidental opening, and the patented Easylink quick-extension system that allows the wearer to easily extend the bracelet by approximately 5mm without the use of tools.
