 Rolex Submariner replica watches with blue dial and bezel


Not every bicolored Rolex GMT bezel has to be named after fizzy drink. Who knew? Whatever mainstream association a color scheme conjures is fair game, and black-and-blue? Why, Batman, of course. Soda and superhero references betray the childlike zeal with which Rolex collectors enjoy their grownup hobby.What’s steel and gold and blue all over? Well, apparently not much else but a Rolex “Bluesy,” as this nickname doesn’t have any apparent cultural reference. Yes, it’s blue, but it’s a very specific nickname which applies only to a two-tone cheap Rolex Submariner replica watches uk with blue dial and bezel. The first Bluesy reference dates to 1985 but a modern rendition also exists in the brand’s current catalog. Perhaps even weirder than the nicknames bestowed by the public, Rolex has a lexicon of its own in which its combination of gold and steel, otherwise known as two-tone, is called Rolesor.



So there are manual-wound perfect Rolex Daytona super clone watches, and then there are exotic-dial “Paul Newman” Daytonas, and then there’s this real inside-baseball-type thing — a ref. 6241 in gold with a black Paul Newman dial and seconds counter demarcated in 15, 30, 45, and 60-second intervals. The “John Player Special” moniker is a reference to the black and gold livery of John Player Special cigarettes.Five references of the Dato-Compax, one of Swiss movements replica Rolex’s most complicated fake rolex watches (triple calendar chronographs, in this case), are collectively referred to as the “Killy”: the 4768, 4767, 5036, 6036 and the 6236. Why the nickname? In the 1960s, famed skier Jean-Claude Killy became a Rolex ambassador after winning several titles, and though he never appeared wearing a Dato-Compax in any ads, he was said to own one. These are some of the rarest, mot sought after serially-produced vintage Rolexes.


Referred to as “exotic dial” references by the brand, Italian collectors began referring to these funky Daytonas as “Paul Newmans” in the 1980s after a photograph of the famed actor wearing his personal watch began making the rounds. The exotic dials were made by Singer, featured cool art deco numerals — and were a commercial flop for years. Go figure. (They spanned several references, so a “Paul Newman” could be one of several Daytona models.)The Military Submariner.
