- So here's the deal — everyone's been waiting for Clean Factory to crack the Daytona code. And man, did they ever deliver. The 126519LN-0006 "Ghost" isn't just another chronograph replica. This is the watch that made every other factory throw in the towel.
- When Clean Factory dropped this Ghost dial masterpiece, they didn't just copy the Daytona — they perfected it. That 40mm case wrapped in 18k white gold over solid 904L steel? It's got the exact presence and balance that makes a Daytona legendary. Pick it up, and you immediately know this isn't some cheap knockoff. It's substantial. Balanced. Feels premium on your wrist.
- But here's what really sets this Ghost apart — that dial. Holy shit, this thing is gorgeous. The steel-grey sunburst finish with those deep black subdials creates this insane contrast that changes completely depending on the light. Indoors, it's subtle and understated. Step into sunlight, and boom — the whole dial comes alive with this metallic shimmer that's pure eye candy. Other factories tried to nail this ghost effect for years. Clean Factory nailed it on the first try.
- Then there's the Oysterflex bracelet. Look, we've all seen cheap rubber straps trying to pass as Oysterflex. This isn't that. Clean Factory sources genuine Switzerland-imported Oysterflex with the real metal blade insert inside, complete with the D, E, F size combination system for that perfect fit every time. This thing flexes and moves with your wrist like it's part of you, but with the structural integrity of a metal bracelet. The white gold-wrapped Oysterlock clasp? Clicks into place with the same authority as the genuine. That Glidelock micro-adjustment system? Works exactly like Rolex intended.
- The black ceramic bezel with its tachymetric scale is machined to perfection. Every number, every marking is laser-sharp and precisely placed. The polished black ceramic has this deep, lustrous finish that screams quality. This is a fixed bezel — no rotation, just pure racing functionality exactly like the genuine.
- Get up close and you'll see where Clean Factory really flexes. The dial printing is razor-sharp. Those 18k white gold hour markers catch light perfectly and feel substantial. The chronograph subdials have this perfect sunken depth with crisp, clean edges. Even the Rolex logo and text have that perfect font weight and positioning that matches the genuine exactly.
- Now let's talk about what's under the hood — the game-changing Dandong 4131 movement. This isn't the old 4130 that other factories use. Clean Factory partnered with Dandong to develop this beast from scratch. We're talking a genuine 72-hour power reserve, silky-smooth chronograph action, and timing accuracy that rivals genuine Swiss movements. The column wheel and vertical clutch deliver that crisp chronograph start/stop with button feedback that feels exactly like the genuine. When you hit those pushers, you get that same tactile click and resistance that makes the real Daytona so satisfying to use.
- The chronograph hands? They sweep smooth as silk, just like the genuine. No stuttering, no jumping — pure fluid motion that's mesmerizing to watch. The movement finishing? Incredible. Clean Factory hand-polishes every component, plates every surface, and assembles each caliber to their own standards. No shortcuts, no recycled parts, no compromises. This Dandong 4131 fixes every issue previous movements had — better stability, smoother operation, quieter rotor, and chronograph functions that reset to perfect zero every time.
- Water resistance? A legitimate 100 meters. This isn't some marketing bullshit — we're talking real seals, real testing, real confidence to wear this thing anywhere. Swimming, showering, living your life — no worries.
- This Ghost isn't for Instagram posers or quick-flip artists. This is for people who understand that Clean Factory just redefined what a Daytona replica can be. The collectors. The enthusiasts. The ones who know that when Clean Factory spent two years developing this Dandong 4131 movement, they weren't just making another rep — they were making history.
- We didn't just make a good Daytona replica. We made the Daytona replica. And once you strap this Ghost on your wrist, you'll understand why this release changed everything.

John Freeman –
Purchasing from real clean factory was a phenomenally easy process and very pleasant experience! From start to finish, all the assistance I received was quick and efficient, not to mention the friendliness of the people I dealt with. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a timepiece to add to their collection!
Stu Berberich –
Fourth watch purchased and extremely happy.
Zoe Nguyen –
Side-by-side with the gen, the thickness is only 0.4mm different — almost impossible to notice unless measuring.
Ahmed El-Sayed –
Hour markers are high-polish white gold and extremely well set. Lume is bright and consistent across all indices.
Tomás Fernández –
Rehaut engraving is centered and matches the Rolex typeface well. No smudges or inconsistent spacing.
Dmitri Orlov –
You’ll love this if you appreciate modern Rolex design. Clean Factory has really mastered the Daytona line.
Nour Al-Hassan –
I’ve worn it at least 10 times and still get surprised by the dial — depending on light, it’s pearl, grey, or almost cream.
Sebastian Vogel –
Perfect for collectors looking for subtle flex — the Ghost dial is elegant, not loud, but oozes presence.
Frederick Osei –
Hour and minute hands are perfectly flat — no warping or distortion under zoom. Central pinion is clean and centered.
Ali Youssef –
Caseback seal was snug when I opened it to inspect. Gaskets look properly fitted and waterproofing appears legitimate.
Tariq Mansour –
Pushers screw down securely and feel refined. Zero wobble, and chrono resets instantly — exactly what you want from a Daytona.
Yuki Takahashi –
I compared the dial color under natural and artificial light. Both show the depth of the ghost tone — it’s not just flat white.
Carlos Mendes –
The black ceramic bezel contrasts beautifully with the light dial. The tachymeter font is deeply engraved and filled precisely.
Andres Lopez –
Datewheel font is clean and matches gen in thickness and spacing. Not easy to replicate but Clean Factory did it well.
Kevin Rodriguez –
Glidelock-style clasp is solid. It closes with a confident click and the polish on the clasp is mirror-grade.
Fatima Rahman –
Oysterflex strap fits comfortably. Feels substantial but very wearable for daily use. Even after hours on the wrist, no pinch or sweat buildup.
Chloe Dupont –
Chrono hands align perfectly at zero and don’t flutter during movement. That shows the 4131 movement is tight.
Michael Tan –
No regrets. It’s the most complete Daytona clone I’ve owned — and I’ve tried a dozen across multiple factories.
Ming Zhao –
I’ve had reps where the ceramic bezel chips easily — not this one. I accidentally bumped it and there wasn’t even a mark.
Pedro Garcia –
Strap curvature and insert geometry are correct — the watch hugs the wrist like a gen Daytona on Oysterflex.
George Williams –
Looks just as great on a rubber strap as on a NATO or leather. Really versatile case and dial combo.
Arun Sharma –
The high-polish case sides hold their shine without being mirror-glossy. It’s a tasteful level of reflectiveness.
Olivia Costa –
All six screws on the clasp are aligned and properly sunk. Minor detail, but shows the care that went into finishing.
Tan –
The Ghost Dial has this silky opalescent finish that shifts tone depending on the light — incredibly nuanced, especially under sunlight.
John Smith –
Text printing on the dial is laser-sharp. The ‘Daytona’ script in red is vivid and sits just above the lower subdial with precision.
Kazuki Yamamoto –
Everything about this screams top-tier rep — Clean Factory raised the bar again with this release.
Sophie Tran –
What stood out immediately was the flawless subdial alignment. I compared it with my gen 116500 and this one is shockingly accurate.
Luca Rossi –
The sunburst effect of the dial is subtle but beautiful. This isn’t just a rep — it’s something you want to admire close-up.
Nina Müller –
Rotor in this Dandong 4131 is silent. I held it up to my ear and there’s no noticeable noise, which is rare in clone movements.
Benjamin Li –
I checked the sapphire under angled light and it appears to have inner AR coating. The dial clarity is superb from all angles.
Mehmet Kaya –
No noticeable lag or skip when starting/stopping the chronograph. That’s a big win for a clone Daytona.
Henry Zhang –
The watch holds center alignment with the crown logo — something even some gens are inconsistent with.
Mohammed Khan –
The watch arrives well-packaged with foam protection and outer wrapping. Felt premium and secure on arrival.
Daniel Cohen –
Tachymeter scale lines up cleanly with the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock subdials — very accurate, no visual distortion.
Grace Wong –
Even the crown guards are shaped correctly. I measured them against official case drawings and the dimensions are very close.
Li Wei –
Movement has a strong power reserve. I got 70+ hours after fully winding, which is higher than I expected from a clone.
Victor Huang –
The lume pip at 12 on the bezel is set flush — not raised or sunk like cheaper reps. Gives a cleaner bezel look.
Emily Carter –
Clean Factory nailed the case finishing — brushed lugs with polished sides, and no rough transitions. It feels luxury-grade in hand.
Rajiv Singh –
The silver rings around the chronograph subdials catch the light nicely and add just the right amount of visual depth.
Elena Petrova –
No excess glue or dust anywhere — the dial was pristine. That’s rare for any rep, even at this level.

This Dandong 4131 movement has been performing at +3.1s/day over two weeks. Chrono pushers feel solid and click with authority.
Sara Oliveira –
Caseback curvature sits comfortably on the wrist and the overall profile is slim. Fits easily under a cuff.
