Description
A Rolex Day-Date clone — reference 228398TBR-0001, 40mm case, in stainless steel. On the wrist it tracks the reference it copies — the case silhouette, the dial furniture and the taper of the bracelet all follow the genuine watch. This is a clone, and it is described as one — no other claim is made about it.
It runs on a self-winding calibre, so the seconds hand glides instead of ticking and the watch keeps itself wound from the motion of your wrist. The steel case is worked by hand — brushed faces keep their grain and the polished edges stay sharp. The crystal is anti-reflective sapphire, and the case is rated to 50 metres — enough for everyday wear.
Sized for a man's wrist. The 40mm case carries the same proportions on the wrist as the model it follows. Nothing leaves without a check: we inspect and photograph the exact unit first, so the piece in the QC images is the piece that reaches you.

Frequently Asked Questions
In QC photographs taken under soft, even lighting, the dial should be uniformly black without visible dust particles or smudges. Check high-magnification photos closely. If dust is visible, request photographs from different angles or a cleaning before approval.
The black finish is applied paint, which can show light scratches with close inspection or under very bright light. Normal wear, cleaning with soft materials, and careful storage minimise visible damage. The dial is not sapphire and is more delicate than a metallic finish.
A black dial is paint on metal with a flat, matte finish. A sapphire dial is a polished crystal with a glossy, translucent tone. Sapphire dials are more resistant to scratches; black dials are more formal and traditional-looking. The 228398TBR has the black dial.
Yes. The black dial provides high contrast, making the white date numbers and white day text very legible. Both windows are completely visible against the black background, even in low light due to the luminous white text.
