The Rolex Daytona: 1988 to Present

As far as the mechanical aspects of the watch throughout its history, the self-winding Rolex Daytona movement introduced in 1988 was based on the Zenith El Primero Caliber 400. It used this until 2000, when Rolex introduced its 4130 caliber. This 4130 movement finally brought all of Rolex’s manufacturing in-house and is distinctive in being Rolex’s first self-manufactured mechanical chronograph.

Given the Rolex Daytona’s immense popularity today among consumers and collectors, it’s almost surprising to know that for a good portion of its history, the Rolex Daytona was something of a hard sell. But because of the watch’s attractive design, its reliability, and a little help from Paul Newman, the Rolex Daytona has become the prime example of Rolex’s manufacturing quality and their continued dominance of the luxury watch industry.

Rolex Cosmograph Daytona is possibly one of the more popular models from what may very well be the most well-known luxury watch company in the world. Rolex Submarinerfans would tend to disagree but that is another topic altogether. To answer the question though, yes of course it does. The Cosmograph Daytona or better known as the Rolex Daytona is always a pleasure to write as well as read about. It comes in various styles but it is the Rolex Daytona 116595 RBOW that will be discussed in particular.

First of all, what mechanism is powering this bejewelled beauty? Rolex has its in-house manufactured Calibre 4130 movement installed into its 40mm case. It is an improvement on the 4030 which was based on the Zenith El Primero. This automatic chronograph Rainbow Daytona keeps on ticking with this increased efficiency and more accurate system. It is more serviceable too.

There are some parts that are easier to relubricate during maintenance servicing. It can be disassembled and repaired individually. Other brands with the same such parts cannot be touched. This would lead to inevitable wear and tear, which makes the Rolex Daytona Rainbow a more suitable choice.

CHEAP ROLEX COPY REVIEW

Time for another watch review! This time, i am going back to my roots by reviewing a model from a Danish company, called About Vintage by Skov Andersen. As the name suggests, they make modern watches inspired by vintage watches, and they do it quite well. They are currently seling 6 models with different variations, and one of them is a lovely but pricey limited edition collaboration with Frederique Constant. They have quartz chronographs, japanese Seiko movements and swiss made ETA movements, which gives them a relatively broad range of prices, without exceeding the 1000 euro mark (except for their limited edition watch).

One of the things that made me choose this watch over their other models was the second hand! I have just reviewed a DUFA watch with the same kind of design for the hour hand, but i believe that About Vintage took this design a step up! These hands are called Breguet hands (seen on Breguet watches), lollipop hands or moon hands, and the dark blue color really makes the second stand out as the first thing you notice on this watch.
Combined with the fact that the second markers on the dial sits beneath the circle of the hand, this design is by far one of the the coolest i have ever seen on a dress watch. To visually balance out the “weight” of this circle, the second hand has a thicker “tail” that finishes with a diamond shaped tip. It’s truly a joy to watch the second hand tick while revealing the numbers beneath

The strap that the watch comes with is a simple but great genuine leather strap. It’s quite rigid but if you bend it a few times it hugs the wrists instantly. It has a very slightly used look to it, wich i actually like a lot! It helps reinforce the vintage feel and most leather straps looks better after some wear and tear. The straps are all fitted with quick releases so they are easy to switch out.

The About Vintage 1820 is powered by a Japanese Automatic Seiko movement, more specifically the NH35A, a very common movement used by watch brands. Seiko is known for creating low-cost, but reliable and tough movements. They are also easily serviced and to my knowledge, keeps time pretty well. Automatic means that time is kept by a spring that is wound using the movement of your arm. It has a 42 hrs. reserve, meaning it can tick for that amount of time when fully wound.

Seiko says this movement loses 20 seconds or gains 40 seconds a day. On the world wide web, the opinions vary: some say they quickly lose precision, some say it a matter of being unlucky and getting a bad movement, some say they only loose about a minute in a week to 10 days. I have had this watch for a while and it keeps time very well, and looses / gains about max 10 seconds a day. But this is a dress watch, so i don’t wear it very often which means i set the time when i take it for a spin.

This movements has a hack feature, meaning that the movement stops ticking when you set the time. This is quite a useful feature because it protects the movement if by any chance you happen to set the time backwards, and also helps set the watch more precisely.

Even if worn regularly and serviced every 5 to 10 years, this watch can last a lifetime, which is good since one of About Vintage’s statements is: take good care of your new timepiece, make moments, give it history – let it become vintage.
