Similarly, the Daytona is extremely popular in the replica watch industry. Today, Bokey brings you the pinnacle of Daytona replicas in the industry – the Clean Factory Rolex Daytona 116518LN Shawn Yue Edition – to see how high its level of restoration is?
Review of Clean Factory Rolex Daytona Shawn Yue M116518LN:
The Clean Factory Rolex Daytona Shawn Yue Edition uses 904L stainless steel for the case material, and the entire watch undergoes perfect electroplating to match the color of the original model. Of course, the watch also features excellent exterior polishing, with strong linear aesthetics and a smooth finish on the sides, etc. As a sporty model like the Shawn Yue Edition, the watch has a crown on the right side, enhancing its sporty temperament during daily use! Notably, the integration of the 4130 movement brings the watch’s thickness to 12.2mm, which represents a top-tier detail in the replica industry.
It should be noted that on the Shawn Yue Edition Rolex Daytona, the right side features functional crowns. On the side of the watch, there are three crowns arranged in parallel. The details of the crowns are also meticulously crafted. The upper and lower crowns serve as chronograph buttons, which can drive the dial hands on the face, while the middle one is the time-setting crown. The screw-down crown design also gives the watch a certain level of water resistance. It is important to note that for the Shawn Yue Daytona, the three dots on the crowns are not of the same size. For steel models like the Panda Daytona, the three small dots are arranged in an arc, with details that extremely replicate the style of the authentic version. Of course, the texture of the crowns is also quite realistic, increasing the friction for easier time adjustment, and the overall details of the watch are impeccably executed!
For the mirror, the watch is matched with a sapphire mirror, the watch mirror is also very transparent, but also for the mirror inside the electroplating to increase the transparency of the watch, at the same time, the watch in the later use process, will not be prone to scratches, of course, this is also the charm of sapphire, at the same time, the watch mirror is also sinking, so that the watch maintains a perfect strength!
Of course, the watch is literally speaking, the CLEAN factory has also been redefined, of course, the color is also the ultimate gold-based, and at the same time, the color is also vacuum pvd plating, not ordinary oil injection color matching, pvd advantage is that the electroplating layer can be controlled at 2-4um microns. No, the black sunline pattern and the edge CD pattern in the middle of the timekeeping small eye circle are completely in accordance with the real one-to-one mold, and the overall details are also very reliable!
It is also learned here that the function dial of the watch should be known in detail, the left and right eyes are the chronograph counters, and the six o’clock position is the second hand, which is also synchronized with the original version of these functions, of course, for the later stage, it is also necessary to know how to use the watch, and at the same time do not use the chronograph function frequently, to avoid increasing the load of the watch!
The Shawn Yue Edition features the classic solid caseback detail, with all the precious metal markings on the back of the watch perfectly reproduced. The engraving details are also impeccably executed. Internally, it is equipped with the 4130 movement—we won’t elaborate too much on the movement itself, as the 4130 is already well-known for its reliability. The advantages of this movement not only restore the functional charm of the original model but also ensure the watch achieves a thickness of 12.2mm, which is a remarkable detail. Overall, the watch’s details are handled with exceptional precision!
For the strap said, the watch is matched with a rubber belt, of course, for the rubber belt of factory C, it is also very bright, because not only rubber, it is also equipped with memory steel sheets, of course, the size of the strap can also be selected, at the same time, for the rubber belt of the watch, it is also very strong in terms of workmanship, why is it said that the C factory Daytona is more expensive, in fact, the accessories of the watch are a big reason, this time the C factory a pair of straps are about 600 pairs! This is the embodiment of the value of the watch, and at the same time the details of the case are perfect!
Where has the Clean Factory Rolex Daytona Shawn Yue Edition been upgraded?
The upgraded details of this watch are still very impressive. First, the overall watch is made of 904L steel, and the electroplating process is also perfect. It should be noted that for the gold model, the electroplating process is so excellent that it is not easy to fade during later use. Of course, the watch should also try to avoid unnecessary bumps to prevent damage, as heavy impacts during use could definitely cause the embarrassing situation of white spots appearing on the electroplated surface. The outer bezel has also undergone perfect electroplating treatment, and all aspects of the watch’s details are very clear! This is why we choose Clean Factory products when purchasing watches. Of course, for this Clean Factory Daytona, the thickness of the watch has also reached the extreme. The previous thickness of Noob Factory was 12.4mm, while Clean Factory’s thickness is 12.2mm. Although the difference is small, it is still a remarkable upgrade. At the same time, the movement has an extremely low repair rate, allowing watch enthusiasts to wear it with greater peace of mind. The dial surface of the watch is also processed very well, with colors very close to the original details. It should be noted that the Daytona has two coexisting versions: the 4130 movement version and the 7750 movement version, but they are easy to distinguish! Clean Factory currently only uses the 4130 movement, and all versions with the 7750 movement are from other small factories! Do not listen to watch sellers who falsely claim that Clean Factory also has 7750 movement models!
