Recently, I got my hands on a high imitation Rolex Cosmograph Daytona with a ceramic bezel and stainless steel case. It’s supposed to be an original order, and I was really curious to see how it stacks up against the real deal. Here’s how it went.
First off, I started by looking at the bezel. This one is made of Cerachrom ceramic, which is supposed to be super tough. I tried scratching it with my keys and some coins, and you know what? It didn’t leave a single mark! Felt pretty good about that, just like the real Rolex, this thing seems like it can take a beating and still look brand new. Plus, it’s got that nice shine to it, not too much, but just enough to catch your eye.
Then I moved on to the numbers on the tachymeter. I compared them to some pictures of authentic Daytonas online, and they looked spot on. No smudging, no misalignment, just clean and sharp printing. Rolex is known for their precision, and this replica seems to nail that aspect. Checked out that this fake Rolex Daytona 116500 LN uses real 904L steel for the case and bracelet. Good!
Next, I examined the case and bracelet. They’re made of 904L stainless steel, which is what Rolex uses. It felt solid and had a good weight to it. I wore it around for a few days, and it was comfortable on my wrist. The bracelet felt secure, and the clasp clicked into place nicely.
I also paid attention to the overall finish of the watch. The polishing was well-done, and there were no rough edges or imperfections that I could spot. I even took a magnifying glass to it, just to be sure. Honestly, it looked pretty darn good.

Finally, I compared the chronograph function to the real deal. The pushers felt solid when I pressed them, and the hands moved smoothly. I timed a few things, and it seemed to keep accurate time. I mean, I’m not a professional watchmaker, but it seemed to work just fine to me.
Conclusion
Overall, I was pretty impressed with this high imitation Rolex Daytona. It looks and feels like the real thing, and it seems to be well-made. Of course, it’s not a genuine Rolex, but for the price, it’s a pretty good alternative. I wore it around, and no one could tell the difference. Felt like a million bucks without spending it!
