The latest release from Clean Factory, the 126500 model with the C4131 movement, replicates the iconic Rolex Daytona at an impressive level. One of the standout features of this release is the attention to detail on the dial’s three silver subdials. The updates to the 4131 movement include an additional shiny ring around the outer edge of each subdial, a detail executed with precision by Clean Factory. While the texture of the silver-grey subdials may not be as delicate as the genuine article, the difference is imperceptible to the naked eye, especially under natural light.
The markers and luminescence on this replica are also crafted with great care. It’s worth noting that while the genuine 4131 models feature cylindrical pinheads, some Clean replicas still use the conical pinheads from older models. This may indicate Rolex’s ongoing clearance of 4130 stock. Despite these nuances, the overall appearance of the watch case and bracelet remains faithful to the original, showing only minor differences.
Clean Factory’s approach to creating the SH4131 movement is rooted in complexity, yet there is a misconception that ‘SH’ signifies lower quality. Clean Factory reassures us that they never prioritize profit over quality, with the SH4131 movement acquisition costs rivaling those of the DD4130. Despite the tight timeline, Clean Factory managed to acquire five genuine models for comparison, a testifying commitment to excellence, even purchasing models with a value drop exceeding $100,000 USD, excluding dismantled pieces and damaged parts.
For consumers debating the authenticity and craftsmanship of this replica, Clean Factory provides natural light photographs for further assurance. These practical images serve as a testament to the high fidelity of this creation. Clean Factory’s dedication to producing a high-quality replica that stands the test of scrutiny is evident in every part of this endeavor.
