Best Replica Rolex Submariner ref. 16618 with a lapis lazuli dial
You might have seen this special version of the gold Rolex Submariner before here on Fratello. Robert-Jan reviewed this brilliant variation of the Submariner with its lapis lazuli dial in 2023. Additionally, I featured it in last year’s Top 5 list of Rolex stone dials. But for this occasion, I am bringing it back. The sheer brilliance and impact of this special gold high quality fake Rolex Submariner watches left a lasting impression on most of us here at Fratello. Seeing a bright blue lapis lazuli dial in a gold Sub is just something else!
From a distance, it looks like a regular blue dial. But once you have the watch in your hand, you realize this is something special. The lively blue color has a lot of depth and texture. As you can see, the version we had in the office has some amazing speckles that bring it to life. This makes cheap super clone watches that are already brilliant in gold and blue even better.
The luxury version of the famous top copy Rolex Submariner watches
The Swiss made replica Rolex Submariner ref. 16618 watches debuted in 1986 and stayed in production until 2008. This gold model had quite the production run before a modern version of the Sub replaced it. The standard variants of this luxury version of Rolex’s iconic diver in yellow gold were available with either a black or blue dial and matching bezel. Inside the 18K yellow gold case, Rolex equipped the watch with its renowned caliber 3135. The watches came fitted with a yellow gold Oyster bracelet that adds tremendously to their visual presence.
Over this 1:1 wholesale fake watches’ 22-year production run, Rolex produced just over 20,000 pieces of this reference, equaling an average of roughly 1,000 per year. That is not a large number.
The lapis lazuli version is much rarer and thus has become a proper favorite among collectors. It has made this brilliant Submariner a grail watch for many Rolex fans, and it’s easy to understand why. The Submariner ref. 16618 is the perfect proof that luxury replica Rolex sports watches and a stone dial can be a match made in heaven.
