Rolex Daytona 116518 Super Clone 40mm Yellow Gold Blue Dial Cosmograph

Case, Pushers and Tachymeter Bezel 40mm Yellow Gold-Tone Build

The Rolex Daytona 116518 super clone carries a 40mm Oyster case measuring 12.4mm thick, built on a 904L stainless steel core with a high-grade yellow gold-tone finish for accurate color and long-term wear. Two screw-down chronograph pushers flank the crown at 2 and 4 o'clock, locking the chronograph function and supporting the 100-meter water resistance.

 Tachymeter Bezel Scale and Finishing

The yellow gold tachymeter bezel rings the dial with an engraved tachymetric scale that measures average speed over a fixed distance. This super clone cuts and fills each scale marking so the numerals read cleanly against the polished gold rim. Mirror-polished surfaces wrap the case and the bezel for the bright look gold is known for, and the Triplock screw-down crown sits at 3 o'clock engraved with the Rolex coronet.

Sapphire Crystal and Caseback

Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with anti-reflective treatment covers the blue dial and keeps the chronograph readings clear in direct light. The flat profile of the crystal follows the genuine Daytona design without a Cyclops lens, since the Cosmograph carries no date. The solid screw-down caseback seals the movement and holds water resistance to 100 meters, supported by the Triplock crown system.

Blue Dial with Three Chronograph Counters

The blue dial of this Daytona 116518 super clone carries a deep, even blue that frames the warm yellow gold case with a cool contrast. The dial holds three yellow gold-tone sub-dials, applied yellow gold baton markers, and the printed minute track for the tachymeter timing function.

Sub-Dial Layout and Hands

The three chronograph sub-dials sit at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock on this 116518 Super Clone. The list of the three counter functions is given below.

1. 9 o'clock counter: Small running seconds, which confirms the watch is running.
2. 3 o'clock counter: 30-minute elapsed-time register for the chronograph.
3. 6 o'clock counter: 12-hour elapsed-time register for the chronograph.

Yellow gold-tone baton hands sweep across the blue dial, and the central chronograph seconds hand runs smoothly at 28,800 vibrations per hour for the genuine Daytona timing motion.

Logo, Text and Symmetry

The applied Rolex coronet sits at 12 o'clock, with "Rolex Oyster Perpetual Superlative Chronometer Cosmograph Daytona" printed in crisp, fine text around the dial. The three sub-dials sit in even balance against the blue background. The yellow gold counters and markers give the 116518 a sharp, layered look against the cool blue surface.

Swiss-Grade Caliber 4130 Clone Movement

The Rolex Daytona 116518 super clone runs on a Swiss-grade automatic chronograph movement engineered to reproduce the genuine Rolex Caliber 4130 in feel, frequency, and autonomy. The movement operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour, winds bidirectionally through a free-rotating rotor, and holds a 72-hour power reserve for three days off the wrist.

Accuracy and Chronograph Performance

Daily deviation holds within -5 to +8 seconds per day after factory regulation, close to the chronometer standard of the genuine Caliber 4130. The chronograph starts, stops, and resets cleanly through the screw-down pushers, with the central seconds hand snapping back to zero on reset. The smooth sweeping seconds hand and the quiet rotor confirm the Swiss-grade build.

The 26240 chronograph family offers 3 main case-material routes, and the 26240OR.OO.1320OR.04 sits at the rose gold tier. The comparison of the 3 material variants is listed below.

Yellow Gold Oyster Bracelet and Oysterlock Clasp

The Daytona 116518 super clone carries the Oyster bracelet, the three-piece flat-link design Rolex pairs with the sport models. The bracelet uses a yellow gold-tone finish to match the case and the tachymeter bezel, with polished and brushed links that taper smoothly from the lugs toward the wrist.

Wrist Feel, Weight and Comfort

The watch weighs approximately 195 grams on the full bracelet, giving the substantial wrist presence buyers expect from a gold Daytona. The folding Oysterlock safety clasp locks shut with an Easylink extension link for a 5mm comfort adjustment. The 40mm case and tapered bracelet sit comfortably on wrists from 6.5 to 8 inches.
