Introduction to the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Series 116595 RBOW Watch (Rainbow Daytona)
ZF’s Pinnacle of Craftsmanship and Elegance: The Royalty of Rolex Daytonas – The Rainbow Bezel Daytona Series The essence of the Rainbow Daytona lies in its gradient-colored bezel gemstones. Natural gemstones inherently have imperfections, so the selected stones undergo optimization to achieve a pure, translucent, and rich texture. ZF Factory has meticulously selected and matched 36 gemstones from tens of thousands of candidates to create the most harmonious color gradient transition. The greatest challenge lies in the watch’s small-scale production: instead of needing just one set of gradient gemstones, at least dozens of sets are required to produce the corresponding number of timepieces, resulting in extremely limited availability.
The dial’s hour markers feature square-cut rainbow gradient gemstones, while the three chronograph sub-dials utilize a technology called “Gold Crystals”. This creates a layered effect reminiscent of the widmanstätten-pattern nickel-iron meteorite. When the watch is shaken, the irregular patterns on the Gold Crystals refract light differently, shimmering with changing brightness and exuding a deep, unique allure. Rainbows are nature’s precious gift to humanity. ZF’s commitment to exceptional quality has created a symphony of harmonious colors, redefining the Rainbow Daytona.
Bokey Review: The ZF Factory Rainbow Daytona 116595RBOW offers a very high level of overall appearance replication. Both the gradient transition of the bezel gemstones and the craftsmanship of the dial are meticulously executed, with dimensions and thickness precisely matching the original specifications. The watch is equipped with the Shanghai 4130 movement, which is renowned for its reliable quality. **Shortcoming**: The overall weight is slightly lighter than the genuine version. The original model is crafted from 18k Everose gold, and precious metals inherently have a higher density than 904L stainless steel. However, what surprises Bokey most is its price—under 4,000 RMB. In the past, modifying a watch to this style would cost at least around 10,000 RMB, making this replica exceptionally cost-effective!
