The Rolex Day-Date 40mm from ARF is here, setting a new benchmark in the world of replicas. Rolex enthusiasts know the Day-Date as a classic that every collector should have, and now it’s perfectly replicated with precision and attention to detail. ARF has used the 3255 integrated movement, identical to the original, unlike the typical market movements like the 2834. This dedication extended over days of meticulous adjustments, ensuring that every detail, from case thickness to dial indices, was flawlessly crafted to reflect the original.
The improvements made in this model are noteworthy:
- The thickness of the case measures 12.2 mm, perfectly matching the authentic Rolex model.
- The diamond indices have been refined to match the slender and precise structure of the original, a significant departure from the bulkier market versions.
- When it comes to plating, the color matches the genuine Rolex, not relying on standard color codes like 1N16 or 2N18 but instead custom-matched by the plating factory. A nano protective layer was added to increase color durability, with a guarantee that any discoloration not caused by user neglect will be replaced without question.
- ARF innovated in the case markings, opting for a pressed and etched technique for the four corner precious metal markings instead of the generic laser engraving, striving for an indistinguishable replica.
ARF promises that all components are interchangeable with the original Rolex parts, a claim backed by unconditional refunds and returns if proven otherwise. This commitment to authenticity and quality remains unmatched by other factories. We invite collectors and enthusiasts to evaluate and provide feedback, as ARF values collaboration in pursuit of perfection.
