The Introduction of the Replica Rolex Daytona Rainbow Watches
Until recently, if you saw a cheap fake Rolex watch with diamonds or other gemstones, you might have thought it was a later modification, as some people felt that the standard Rolex was not flashy enough. However, things have changed. Rolex has fully embraced the gem-setting trend and used it to enhance its brand positioning. This shift has led to the eye-catching Rolex Rainbow Daytona, especially the Ref. 116595RBOW.
When this stunning gem-set watch debuted in 2012, many people initially thought it was a bit tacky or bulky; some even compared it to the colorful and legendary "Tiger Eye" Daytona ref. 116588TBR. While the "Tiger Eye" watch is still an unattainable dream for many Rolex replica loyalists, the rainbow version has become one of the most sought-after Daytonas ever. For buyers who can afford the six-figure $150,000 (official list price) of this Daytona, the Rainbow Edition represents the ultimate choice—although getting one reportedly requires a 15-year wait list for a Rolex Daytona.
Luxury Fake Rolex Launches Rainbow Daytona for Men
Rolex seems to have been unable to make a clear decision on whether to continue to produce the Rainbow Daytona. As we mentioned in our review of the Rolex Rainbow Daytona replica, the watch was first unveiled in 2012 and produced only for a few years. It then returned briefly for a year in 2022, was discontinued again in 2023, and was re-launched in 2024. In contrast, the white gold model has never been widely sought after, while the gold and Everose models released in 2018 have attracted more attention, especially the Everose version, which has become the most popular model.
The Value of the Replica Rolex Rainbow Daytona
The Everose version originally sold for around $97,500, while the yellow and white gold versions sold for around $90,000. Today, these watches start at over $400,000 on the secondary market, and the ultra-rare diamond-paved Everose version often costs double that, making it the most expensive modern regular production Daytona on the market. While Rolex replica watches and homages are everywhere, the fakes are easy to tell at a glance because Rolex only uses IF-grade (internally flawless) gemstones without any flaws.
The Mastery Behind the Counterfeit Rolex Rainbow Daytona
The Rainbow Daytona's bezel is made up of 36 baguette-cut sapphires, creating a true rainbow effect, while the case is set with 56 diamonds and 11 sapphires for the hour markers. Rolex reportedly has around 20 in-house gem-setters dedicated to this extremely delicate work, ensuring it is done to an astonishingly high standard. The watch is powered by a Rolex 4130 automatic movement, and despite its ornate decoration, it is still water-resistant to a depth of 100 meters (330 feet). However, unless someone accidentally falls into a swimming pool at a party in the Hamptons, this watch will probably not come into contact with water often. You can find that Rolex Daytona replica watches UK shop are very popular with young men and women.
