UK AAA Online Replica Rolex Daytona
The 1960s would prove to be a prolific decade for Rolex, the Swiss brand launching many watches that have since become iconic: the eclectic Cellini King Midas, the now-archetypal Explorer ref. 1016, the buff Sea-Dweller and the even buffer Deep Sea Special, which accompanied the first successful descent to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. However, no Rolex release of the ’60s is as influential or pop culture-relevant as the perfect 1:1 Rolex Cosmograph Daytona watches, which in the years since has proven to be the Crown’s most popular model.
Developed with motorsports usage in mind, the original ref. 6239 was originally referred to in Rolex marketing as the “Le Mans”, named after the famous French endurance race, with the Daytona moniker sticking in 1965, a reference to Florida’s Daytona International Speedway. 1965 also saw the Daytona graced with what are now called “exotic” or “Paul Newman” dials, which at the time weren’t very popular but have grown to represent some of the most coveted best site copy watches in the world, full stop.

Certain watches are designed to fulfil a unique purpose, and the connection between tool and job makes perfect sense. When high quality fake Rolex watches released the Explorer II reference 1655 in 1971, the brand claimed that this was a watch made for spelunking, hence the bright orange hand that would tell you the time in a 24-hour format when spending long periods underground. While this may seem a bit far-fetched today, the 1970s were also a time when recreational caving became much more popular thanks to technological developments that made it safer for those less-experienced. With its orange hand fixed to the hour hand, and a non-rotating bezel, you couldn’t actually track another time zone with the 1655 – though this is something Rolex would address later. Now highly sought-after by collectors as the cheap super clone Rolex Explorer Freccione, the 1655 is also known as the Steve McQueen, though it’s not confirmed that the King of Cool ever actually wore one.
