Okay, here’s my experience with getting a really good fake of the Rolex Sea-Dweller Deepsea 116660.
So, I’ve always been into watches, but a real Rolex? That’s way out of my league, price-wise. But I really dig the look of the Deepsea 116660, especially that beefy, rugged style. So I thought, “Why not try to find a good replica?”
I started looking around. I did some research on forums and stuff, trying to figure out which factories make the best replicas. It was a bit overwhelming, to be honest. There are so many options out there, and everyone has their own opinion on which one is the “best.”
After a while, I decided to go with a replica from one of these good factories that was suggested by users in a forum. I placed an order from one of these sellers. I have to say I was super nervous about it. I mean, you never really know what you’re gonna get, right?
The waiting was the worst part! It took a couple of weeks, but finally, the package arrived. I ripped that thing open so fast. And you know what? I was pretty damn impressed. The watch looked really good. The weight felt right, the details were sharp, and it even had that satisfying click when you turned the bezel.
- The Bracelet I noticed the bracelet was a little bit wider than the older Deepsea replicas, and the clasp felt more solid. I guess they updated it to be more like the real 126660 model. I think it was widened by 1mm.
- The Bezel The bezel action was smooth, and the ceramic insert looked great. It had that deep black color that I was hoping for.
- The Dial The dial details were spot on. The text was crisp, and the lume markers were bright.
- The Movement I went for a movement that people said was pretty reliable. Obviously, it’s not a genuine Rolex movement, but it kept time well enough for me.
I wore it around for a few days, just to see how it felt. Honestly, it felt great on my wrist. It was comfortable, and I got a few compliments on it. Nobody could tell it wasn’t the real deal.
Now, I’m not saying this replica is perfect. There are probably some tiny differences if you compared it side-by-side with a genuine Rolex. But for the price I paid, I was extremely happy with it.
My Final Thoughts
Getting this fake Rolex Deepsea was a bit of a gamble, but it paid off. I got the look I wanted without breaking the bank. If you’re thinking about doing the same, just do your research and be prepared for a bit of a wait. And remember, it’s just a watch. Have fun with it!
