Rolex Daytona Cosmograph 116518LN-0042 Super Clone
$1,450.00
Reference 116518LN places the yellow gold case on an Oysterflex. The blade strap keeps the gold close to the wrist and removes the link movement of a bracelet. The -0042 variant has its own dial and register treatment. Yellow gold on Oysterflex reads more casual than yellow gold on a bracelet, which sounds contradictory until you wear both. The elastomer surface wears differently than a metal link in warm conditions. For anyone who wears this in heat, that distinction matters most.

Where this build differs from the original
- Movement. A cloned movement built to the architecture of the original, not a genuine factory calibre. Clean Factory leads the current sports references and AR Factory the older Submariners. Ask us which calibre is in the build currently in stock.
- Water resistance. The genuine reference is rated to 100 metres. This build is not pressure tested. Treat it as splash resistant and keep it out of the pool.
Every watch spends 24 to 48 hours on a timegrapher before dispatch, and you approve photographs and video of your actual watch before it ships. Two year warranty, in writing. More on what a super clone is, or see the rest of the range.

Hiroshi Cook –
Compared with my genuine Daytona, this Rolex Daytona Clone gets a lot closer than I expected for the money. On the wrist, the overall stance is very convincing, and the case shape gives it that proper presence I look for in a chrono. The glide-lock clasp deserves real credit — it has a solid feel and makes the bracelet sit nicely through the day, which is something I notice immediately on a watch this style.
The biggest win for me is how it handles the little details that usually give clones away. The dial has a good amount of depth, and the printing is cleaner than I’ve seen on plenty of higher-priced reps. The weight feels in the right neighborhood too, so it doesn’t come across as toy-like.
My only small complaint is that the clasp action is a touch stiffer than my genuine piece, especially when opening it one-handed. Not a dealbreaker at all, just something I noticed. For a collector who likes to compare pieces, this is a strong addition. My brother opened it and grinned like crazy — said it looked “dangerously good.”
Tao Phillips –
Really pleased with this watch right out of the box. Coming from a previous rep that always felt a little off on the wrist, this one sits much better and the weight balance is what I was hoping for. The dial detail is sharp enough that I keep catching myself looking at it in the light. The glide-lock clasp is a big plus too, smooth and secure for daily wear.
one tiny gripe: the clasp took a few tries to get adjusted just right.
Other than that, it has given me the confidence to wear it more often than my old one. If you’re replacing an earlier replica, I’d recommend this one.
