We all assumed we were getting a new Submariner on an Oysterflex bracelet. We didn’t. What we did get is this brand new solid-gold perfect replica Rolex Deepsea in the mold of the blue and gold Submariner. Only this watch is bigger, badder, and can go way deeper. At 44mm, this is one solid piece of gold diving kit. But beneath the surface, it also packs one other hidden feature.
The Ringlock system and compression ring are crafted from ceramic, creating a new color-matched design with a specific curvature that draws less attention to it than in previous iterations. The dial text is a gold-gilt adjacent coloration that contrasts against the yellow gold of the case.
Adding lightness to an otherwise massively heavy watch is the RLX titanium caseback. I, for one, cannot wait to feel the heft and size of this one on my wrist from the show later today.
This is big… literally. It is 44mm of pure deep diving best 1:1 replica Rolex in solid 18k yellow gold – with a titanium caseback, of course. How do you I feel about this? I couldn’t tell you just yet without seeing it in the metal but I will say I do like how it looks. I don’t know that we needed a watch like this but, then again, do we really need anything?
To me, this is in the same league as US cheap replica Rolex releasing a two-tone Explorer, and a two-tone Rolex Sea-Dweller copy for sale. And on top of that, the solid-gold Submariner – both vintage and modern – is one of the most loved precious Rolex sports models there is in both blue or black. But this is like that watch on steroids, 44mm being (almost) the biggest watch that high end fake Rolex. But once you had in the added heft of yellow gold, you might as well call this the biggest watch that Rolex makes.
When Crown releases anything new, I always look out for the tiny details, like in 2022 when the high quality replica Rolex Deepsea received an RLX (titanium) caseback. This year, we get the same caseback, which is a bit visually jarring against the gold but a necessary feature for sure. But we also have an updated Ringlock system and compression ring. The new ceramic construction makes for a less jarring visual and adds to a cohesive look to the Swiss movement copy Rolex US overall.
But look, like I said above, this cheap replica Rolex needs to be seen to be known. Stay tuned.
