If you have a vintage Rolex Datejust manufactured prior to the introduction of Caliber 3035, then your particular model is a non-quickset Datejust. To set the date and time on a Non-Quickset Rolex Datejust, follow these steps:Unscrew the winding crown by turning it counterclockwise until it releases from the case.Turn the crown clockwise around 25 times to manually wind the watch (it’s always a good idea to hand-wind the watch while setting it even if it is an automatic movement).Pull the crown out to the last notch.Rotate the crown to advance the timekeeping hands. Keep turning until the correct date appears in the date window. When the correct date appears, you are now in AM hours; now set the time accordingly taking into consideration if it is currently AM or PM.Push the crown all the way back in and screw it down to the case.To set the date and time on a Quickset Rolex Datejust, follow these steps:Unscrew the winding crown by turning it counterclockwise until it releases from the case Turn the crown clockwise around 25 times to manually wind the watch (it’s always a good idea to hand-wind the watch while setting it even if it is an automatic)Pull the crown out one notch to set the date (the timekeeping hands will continue to run in this position).Rotate the crown to adjust the date. We recommend setting the date to the day before today.Pull the crown out to the last notch to set the time. Rotate the crown to move the hands past midnight so that today’s date appears in the window. You are now in AM hours; now set the time accordingly taking into consideration if it is currently AM or PMPush the crown all the way back in and screw it down to the case.Always remember to keep the winding crown on your Rolex watch screwed down onto the case if you not adjusting the time and date to protect the watch from moisture and dust. Also, never unscrew the crown if you are in or around.
About this two tone Submariner 116613LN, there are basically four factories that are making it. BP, GM, AR and Noob. Among four of them, BP is the factory makes the cheapest one. GM is a new factory, I do not know their quality. So, the last two factories AR and Noob are worth your consideration. Based on the V1 edition, this time AR factory update the bezel and dial, the thickness of yellow gold coating on case and bracelet is also improved. First, the 18K yellow gold coating, which the factory claims, is updated to be 8 mils thick. Second, the black ceramic bezel insert is also updated, the golden markers on the bezel are improved to have the same engraving depth. Thrid, about dial improvement, the golden edge of hour markers is narrowed, while the central lume part is wider, so there will be more lume coating on each hour marker to guarantee stronger and longer lume light in dark conditions.So, instead of spending $50 USD more on the 116613LN from Noob, it is better to choose this one from AR factory.I love vintage watches very much. Especially Rolex and Panerai are my most favorite.This generation’s Paul Newman Daytonas are currently flying under the radar. Yes, the Rolex GMT-Master II has already doubled in value, and is likely going to appreciate further due to Rolex carefully managing the supply of that model to the ravenous public, but only by 200%, 300%, 500%. Now, that’s not too bad at all, but the really crazy money is likely hiding somewhere in the far corner of the industry and we won’t know what it is until it’s too late to rush out, cash in hand, and “collect” it.So what should we do in the meantime? I told my little friend, desperate to see a return on his money that he should be patient. He should wait to fall in love. He should truly get to know himself before he pulls the trigger. And then, when he’s good and ready, he should buy a Rolex anyway.
The case is fully made of black ceramic, it is a pioneering work Omega made in their Planet Ocean. The case is brushed, while the edge of lugs is polished, seeing the side, the case has a graceful arc shape. The bezel uses high grade black ceramic with silver engravings. The case back is see-through sapphire crystal, VS factory developed Omega-patented Naiad Lock system, you only need to rotate the case back a bit to lock it perfectly. Check the case back, there are unique engravings on three lugs.The dial is black, which is made of real ceramic Zr02, this is the high gloss black dial that is exact 1:1 imitation of original. The dial has a correct hand stack, hour markers and hands have silver edge and are applied with white lume material, the dial has two different lume colors, hour markers and hour hand will emit strong blue light, minute hand will emit strong green light in the dark. On the outer dial, there are 24-hour gmt markers, GMT hand in the center has an orange triangle mark that is also filled with luminescence. This Deep Black Planet Ocean is a GMT watch, if Omega makes a full ceramic Planet Ocean without GMT function, that will be very popular.
The subdial below red word “DAYTONA” at 6 o’clock is for displaying small seconds, 30-minute chronograph counter is working at 3 o’clock, 12-hour chronograph counter is set at 9 o’clock. Hour markers and Rolex crown logo at 12 are three-dimensional looking. Hour markers, hour hand and minute hand are applied with Swiss grade blue superlume.Inside case back, the movement is Super Clone 4130, it is the world’s first slim clone 4130 automatic movement with full chronograph. Most previous Rolex Daytona replica watches were equipped with Asian Valjoux 7750 movement with working chronograph. The clone 4130 movement made by AR factory does not have full chronograph. Now Noob factory modified it to the outlook of real Rolex Calibre 4130 and developed its full chronograph function. This is really a great progress. The following I show you photos of other three models.Since the beginning of 2018, AR factory has published a lot of amazing replica Rolex watches, which include Rolex Submariner 116610LN, 116610LV and some Daytonas. These replica Rolex watches have one common big selling point, that’s the 904L stainless steel used on case and bracelet. Yes, AR is the first factory to use 904L stainless steel, now other factories like Noob and VR also followed AR’s pace to use 904L stainless steel on their replica Rolex. Today, I want to introduce a super replica Rolex Daytona watch that features a special green dial. It was produced by AR factory and made of 904L stainless steel, its case has 18K yellow gold coated, case polishing is superior and dial details are very close to genuine, so the replica not only uses top quality watch material, its finish is also in top grade. However, about this Daytona replica watch, there is one place I am not satisfied with, that’s the faux minute and hour chronograph counter. If you know what I mean. This is the common fault among all replica Rolex Daytona watches from AR factory.The Daytona 116508LN replica watch is equipped with a slim chronograph movement, we call it clone Rolex 4130 movement. This is the first slim 4130 chronograph movement cloned in our watch market. It was made by AR, but this factory did not make this movement to be perfect. I mean its functions are not complete. Check the dial, the central second-chronograph hand works for real, but two subdials at 3 and 9 o’clock do not have functions. While in previous Daytona replica watches with Asian Valjoux 7750 movement, the subdial at 3 o’clock is for minute chronograph, the subdial at 9 o’clock is for hour chronograph.
