Description
A Rolex Daytona clone — reference 116518, 40mm case, in yellow gold. 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 case is yellow gold, finished by hand — brushed surfaces stay brushed and polished edges keep a clean line. 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
Examine the QC images under good lighting. Yellow gold should appear warm and consistent across case, bezel, and bracelet. Compare the colour tone to your own yellow gold jewellery or online reference images. Significant colour variation is a defect.
The 116518 dial is a rich, medium blue—distinctive within the Daytona range. Your QC photographs will show the exact colour under normal lighting. Compare to official reference images to verify authenticity.
Yellow gold is durable. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals or saltwater beyond brief contact. Regular cleaning with a soft cloth maintains appearance. No special maintenance is required beyond normal watch care.
The combination of yellow gold case and blue dial is distinctive to the 116518. However, other references may share one or both features. Verify case size (40mm), bezel markings, and subdial layout from QC photographs against official reference images.
