- Rolex Daytona 116508-0016 – Clean Factory Yellow Gold Black Moissanite Dial Super Clone 4130
- Clean Factory’s Daytona 116508-0016 in full yellow gold with a black moissanite dial is the build that proves serious luxury is also serious engineering. It looks effortless—rich gold case, deep black dial, brilliant stone markers—but every single detail here is a technical achievement that other factories rarely pull off.
- Black dials sound simple until you realize how hard they are to get right. Most replicas end up with dull, uneven pigment that drifts toward gray in a matter of months. Here, Clean Factory uses UV-stable black pigments applied in multiple layers for a finish that stays deep, clean, and alive. Under softer light, it has a matte richness; in bright light, you’ll see a controlled sunburst that feels dimensional without glare.
- The top-grade moissanite hour markers are where this watch sets itself apart. Each stone is individually set by hand into precisely milled seats. Cheaper builds use glue and low-grade crystals that cloud over or fall out with time. These stones have a refractive index almost identical to diamonds, throwing fire in every direction without looking gaudy. The effect is brilliant but refined—exactly the balance you expect in a serious piece of watchmaking.
- Subdials are laser-engraved with genuine snail-pattern texture. This isn’t shallow stamping. The concentric rings have the proper depth and spacing, so they catch light in a way that keeps the dial feeling alive next to the moissanite. It’s the difference between flat decoration and authentic detail.
- The plating here is also a technical standout. Gold over a black dial shows every flaw. If the tone is too yellow or the finish uneven, it cheapens the entire look. Clean Factory uses molecular bonding to fuse the gold to the steel beneath, creating a warm, consistent finish that resists discoloration and stays smooth under magnification. Every surface, from lugs to bracelet, reflects light evenly.
- Case machining is performed to Rolex-spec tolerances—40mm across, 12.4mm thick, no compromise. That precision is critical: too much plating throws off dimensions, and your chronograph seconds hand won’t reset correctly. Here, the super clone 4130 movement seats perfectly, keeping the hand sweep smooth and the zero reset dead-on every time.
- The bracelet and clasp feel as substantial as they look. Lower-tier replicas often rattle and flex in awkward ways. This bracelet uses thicker plating and solid construction, so each link articulates smoothly with no play. The Oysterlock clasp closes with a confident snap, and the Easylink extension slides out cleanly when you need a little extra room.
- Chronograph performance is exactly what you expect from Clean Factory: the seconds hand sweeps evenly, never stutters, and resets perfectly aligned. The movement stays accurate in the -6/+9 second range, and the build remains fully waterproof to 100M—just like it should.
- Every watch is assembled in a clean environment with meticulous final inspection. On a build this bold, even a speck of dust or a crooked stone ruins the effect. Clean Factory’s process ensures that never happens. The tachymeter bezel is laser-engraved and gold-filled for a crisp, even finish that holds up over time.
- This combination—yellow gold, black dial, moissanite brilliance—is not just a flashy statement. It’s a technical showcase. Get it wrong and it feels like costume jewelry. Get it right and you have a Daytona that commands attention for all the right reasons.
- If you want a reference that looks stunning and is built to last, this is exactly how you do it—no compromises, no shortcuts, just the kind of execution collectors expect.

the watch is well beyond my expectations. They even sent a tool to adjust the band (remove a link) as was necessary and done in 5 minutes. The watch is SO nice I will only wear it for evening wear. I bought another…

Very easy transaction, they called me to make sure they had my correct wrist size, they followed up all the way thru even after delivery: high quality product from what I can see. I will certainly buy some more in the coming months and definitely recommend them to friends and family
