As time goes on, the Cosmograph Daytona has become an institution in the world of popular replica watches, and the yellow gold Rolex Daytona is just a good example.
Like the most sophisticated models from the Swiss watchmaker, the Daytona has resisted radical upgrades over its more than 50-year lifetime—there is no Daytona II for example. Actually, it remains largely similar to the first watch released in 1963.
While yellow gold replica Rolex have dropped in and out of fashion for decades in favor of white or Ever-rose, it remains the king of the valuable metals. Rolex gives yellow gold Daytona watches in a vast array of different styles; from subtle, sporty cases on Oysterflex bracelets to lustrous all gold showstoppers complete with diamond indexes.

Generally speaking, as for the fake Rolex, they were late to the game for chronographs and their first abortive attempts to crack the market were lukewarm at best. Other watchmakers had been making them better for longer.
However, the fake Daytona tried his best to find its audience when it was first launched, and it took movie star royalty to save it. In much the same way as the Explorer II owes a huge debt of gratitude to Steve McQueen’s patronage, the Daytona’s fortunes were transformed overnight owing to a certain Paul Newman. When wife Joanne Woodward bought the actor this special model to commemorate the start of his motor racing career, the watch started its climb towards being one of the most sought after pieces ever made.
The unobtrusive variations on the watch face, famous as ‘exotic dials’, that mark out the range of Paul Newman Daytonas see examples change hands among collectors for truly mind-blowing amounts of money. An extremely rare lemon dial specimen, in yellow gold, recently sold for over $3.5 million. And in October, that original model gift goes up for auction in New York.
Now much more than a highly useful chronograph, it became the watch to be seen with. Instantly successful in the decadent 80s, waiting lists soon stretched into years, with Rolex struggling to keep up with requests, hampered as they were by the use of outside manufacturers for the movements
Today, yellow gold Daytonas can be had in various styles versatile enough to appeal to a wide audience, provided they have sufficiently deep pockets.
The replica yellow gold Rolex Daytona variations are a perfect blend of form and function, a tough as nails performer inside an exquisite piece of jewelry, intended for them.
