All good things must come to an end, and it is as true at Rolex as anywhere else. Over the years, certain pieces have disappeared from the portfolio, either replaced with an updated version or else retired completely. Rolex actually seems to make a habit of discontinuing many of their references with little or no warning, and for reasons only they understand. In some instances, the withdrawn watches are real fan favorites, and it leaves potential customers with just one option to get hold of them.Below, we take a look at five of Rolex’s most-loved discontinued models that are now only available on the pre-owned market.Rolex has a history of marking the key birthdays of a number of its icons with some kind of out-of-the-ordinary celebration, and in 2003, the Rolex Submariner celebrated its 50th anniversary. The world’s most famous luxury dive watch marked its half-century in style with the release of the ref. 16610LV, not only the first Submariner to be fitted with a black Maxi dial, but also the first to have a green bezel.Major departure that it was for the model, it became something of an opinion splitter. There had been variations on the traditional black bezeled pieces before – blue versions (although only on gold and two-tone pieces) being the most common; however, the emerald surround on this anniversary edition led to it picking up a nickname from both the ‘for’ and ‘against’ camps. Those who loved the new colorway called it the Kermit; those less keen christened it the Vomit Sub.
However, it seems like this Super Clone 4130 movement developed by Noob factory has few repairing rate, my clients ordered two Noob Daytona from me in last yesterday, he told me that both watches still work very fine. I think this Super Clone 4130 from Noob is more stable than their 3135 movement.AR factory also makes this green Daytona, but I think some tiny details like dial printings, case engravings and inner bezel engravings are not as good as this one from Noob, however, Noob has a much higher price, which is even $300 USD more expensive. The Daytonas from both Noob and ARF are good, if you have enough budget, then Noob is a better decision.After our holiday, there are exciting news coming from our watch market, the biggest one is that Noob will immediately unveil the V10 edition of Submariner 116610LN and 1166LV, and they will also publish the full golden Daytona and green Daytona at the same time. As Noob’s technology on their 4130 movement becomes more mature, they will install this movement in more Daytona watches, so we will have more choices than before.Besides the release of the green Daytona this time, Noob will bring us a big surprise, that’s the Submariner 116610LN and 116610LV, which will be upgraded to V10. Noob claimed that many improvements were made on V10, but I see the biggest change on the movement, please check the movement photos below, it is 3135, can you tell it is a real or a clone? It is a clone 3135 but I can not see any difference.Among all watch manufacturers, only Noob makes the best clone 3135 movement that looks closest original Rolex 3135. From V6 to V10, Noob has improved a lot, especially on the movement, to guarantee there are no issues. The new 3135 has three big features, better decoration on movement plate,noiseless auto rotor and balance spring.Noob 4130 Daytona Gold Models:Now, these vintage Rolex Submariner watches are very rare in genuine watch market, you can not get any one of them even you have money. So, sometimes a vintage Rolex Submariner is more attractive to a watch collector than a modern Submariner model. The following pictures describe all vintage Submariner models available in our market. Among them, there are Submariners with date, Submariners with no date, some are with stainless steel bracelet, some are with nylon bands in different color, some are with nubuck leather in different color. Among the following vintage Submariner Rolex watches, first, most of them have a case diameter of 38mm, their crystal face is domed plexi plastic, the movement inside is an Asia clone ETA 2836, the bezel can work like genuine Submariner. If you are interested in any one of them, please contact me through email, bs_watches@aol.co.ukAR Factory V2 Edition Replica Rolex Daytona 116508 Yellow Gold Watch with Clone 4130 Movement ARF Replica Rolex Daytona Yellow Gold V2 Now before introducing this replica Rolex Daytona, let us compare Noob Daytona and ARF Daytona. Both Daytona watches are in high quality, they represent the highest watch-making technology in our market. However, they are different from each other. First, now the best replica Rolex from Noob is Daytona with Super Clone 4130, other Rolex watches made by Noob can not compete with AR factory. The only advantage of Noob is their Daytona. Second, AR factory makes the Daytona without full chronograph function, while Noob has the full chronograph, but that does not mean Noob Daytona is better and more stable than ARF Daytona, instead, in movement, I more prefer the 4130 installed in ARF Daytona, it is slimmer and has lower repairing rate. ARF Replica Rolex Daytona 116508Replica Rolex Daytona Yellow Gold AR FactoryReplica Rolex Daytona 116508 Black DialIn finish, ARF perfectly inherits the watch-making technology of its parent company J12.
So, a lot of people who were Noob watch fans have turned to be clients of ARF. Today, I want to introduce two important Rolex watches AR factory just published several days ago, both are Datejust II models in 41mm, which is a trendy size in current watch industry. Two Datejust 2 watches have some common features, like genuine watches, the replicas are made of 904L stainless steel, and both feature a fluted bezel. The difference is that one is with a grey dial, the other is with a blue dial. I saw both watches and took these photos below, compared two of them, I like the Datejust II with grey dial more.About case, both are made of the latest genuine watch material 904L stainless steel, case is brushed, while the lugs are polished. The case finish is very good, which is the same quality level of Rolex made by JF factory. While I find one subtle flaw on the case, that is the back of lugs does not have engravings, while the replica Rolex made by Noob has. Compared replica Rolex watches between Noob and ARF, the quality of case finish of ARF is better than Noob, but if you do care about some detailed engravings, I suggest you buy from Noob. The fluted bezel is also made of 904L stainless steel, the tooth design on the bezel has the same size as that of genuine watch, the amount of bezel tooth is the same as original. The bezel fits the case body perfectly, so there is no gap for water penetration.About dial, the Rolex Datejust II 126334 replica has two options, grey and blue, I prefer the grey one, which looks more low-key, while the blue one looks more elegant. The grey dial matches the white stainless steel appearance better, the unique sunray polishing on the grey dial looks more obvious, I like such sunray polishing on the dial, it looks high quality. The inner bezel has Rolex’s famous rehaut engravings, which look exactly the same as genuine Rolex.
The movement has a good decoration on the rotor and plates, which are very similar to Rolex 4161. You can only see the beautiful SEALs after opening the solid case back, but I do not suggest you do that.Now, order this watch and we can ship immediately, placing the order from GM factory and you do not need to wait.Rolex only published several pieces Daytona watches for women, but every Daytona watch they unveiled is very suitable for women to wear, I do not think Rolex Daytona is exclusive for men. Under current trend, the Daytona, whose case diameter is up to 40mm, looks neutral and is a nice choice for women. Daytona is the only model of Rolex that has a chronograph function. It is only in 40mm and does not have other options, except some vintage models like Paul Newman Daytona. Among all Rolex models, the popularity of Daytona is close to Submariner.Due to its high popularity, Daytona is also highly welcomed in replica watch industry, it is replicated by a lot of watch manufacturers. Different factories make different quality of Daytona replica watches. The general rule is small factories make low quality Daytona replicas, while big factories make high quality ones. However, I do not recommend you to buy the most expensive replicas, you need to find the right one. Sometimes the watch is not very stable even you spent more than $600 USD on it, from a big factory such as Noob, ARF, etc. But sometimes a replica watch from a common watch factory can serve you for years. This situation always happens, some clients also complained that their expensive watches have issues only after several months. I must say this situation is common, you just need to find a right watch supplier who could do a careful quality control before shipping your order.Now, back to this Noob watch, yes, when talking about Noob factory, does thie factory have an online website? Some people will ask. No, this factory does not open sites online. The Daytona replica shown here is the newest V2 edition from Noob factory.
The helium valve button on both factories do not work. While I think AR makes the helium valve button correct because they do a better finish on the button.Both AR and Noob use 904L stainless steel to make the bracelet. While I think that the 904L stainless steel used by AR is the best in entire watch market. The first touch feeling which AR Rolex gives you is excellent, whether on the case or bracelet, the finish on AR 126600 is superior. On AR 126600, if you check the first link of the bracelet that connects the case, its compactness with the links on both sides is made better, Noob’s has a small gap. The crown logo on the buckle looks more three-dimensional on AR 126600. So, about This is the only advantage of Noob factory, because Noob offers a 3235 movement option for this Sea-Dweller 126600. I did not say the Asia 2824 on ARF is not good, it is also a very good movement, even more stable than the clone 3235 and Asia ETA 2836 used by Noob 126600.Whether in material or finish, ARF Sea-Dweller Single Red 126600 is the best. About the movement, I still vote for ARF, because the Asia 2824 movement is more stable. Now, AR factory almost has occupied the entire market of Sea-Dweller 126600, about the after-sale service, Noob’s repairing service is very slow, this is also a big reason why I do not recommend Noob here.Photos and video of Noob 126600 Now, Daytona is the proud of Noob factory, it has become the flagship model of Noob, which is more popular than their Submariner 116610LN and 116610LV. Since the usage of 904L stainless steel in replica watches industry, the emphasis which every factory puts on is the development of replica Rolex, especially the production of Daytona, which directly affect the competitive relationship between Noob and ARF.In my last post, I said Noob is ready to release two yellow gold Daytona watches, now both watches are available. Here I will give a short review one of them, it is the yellow gold one with green dial.The case of this yellow gold Daytona is 12.5mm, which almost has the same thickness as original. Thanks to Noob’s newly developed 4130 movement, so the thickness of the entire case has been reduced, at the same time, the movement can also achieve all functions of original. The inner case material is 904L stainless steel, while the outside yellow gold coating is up to 5 mils thick.Green dial is my favorite, it makes the Daytona suitable both for men and women. Every small dial works very well, each features a red circle inside. The small second hand is on the subdial at 6 o’clock, other two small dials are for minute and hour chronograph display. To reduce the probability of failure, we suggest you do not operate the chronograph buttons too often, this is true for Daytona from Noob and ARF.
