You might recognize the watch in the pictures if you are a regular reader of our Top 5 series. I featured it in our list of the top five full-gold 1:1 replica Rolex sports watches a few weeks ago. That list was all about the cheap fake Rolex Submariner ref. 16618, which was available in full gold and looked amazing.
As explained in that article, perfect replica Rolex offered the same reference with a black onyx dial and a beautiful lapis lazuli dial. While it is not the only luxury super clone Rolex available with a lapis lazuli dial, it is the most surprising and maybe even most impactful.
At first glance, the watch resembles a regular gold aaa quality replica Rolex Submariner with a blue dial and a bezel. But as soon as you get closer, the brilliance of the dial stands out more and more. We had this very rare Submariner in the office some time ago, and it was nothing short of breathtaking. Robert-Jan wrote an article about the Swiss movement copy Rolex UK, calling it his potential grail.
I can say that it has that power after seeing it in real life. The biggest issue? The high quality fake Rolex Submariners with a lapis lazuli dial are extremely rare and go for proper grail money. The same goes for the very few Daytonas fitted with a lapis lazuli dial. A Day-Date or Datejust with a lapis lazuli will be your best bet if you want one. Expect to see prices between roughly €30K and €60K for one of those.
