The gold Cosmograph Daytona holds a particular place in Rolex’s chronograph history, and this Rolex Daytona 116508 Champagne Black Subdials replica in full yellow gold with a matching Oyster bracelet captures that presence at 40mm. Reference 116508 is the all-gold Daytona on a metal bracelet, a configuration that has appeared across several dial variations since its introduction. This version, m116508-0014, features a champagne dial with three black chronograph registers and white-lume baton markers, sapphire crystal, and water resistance rated to 100 m.

Caliber Breakdown

Depending on the option you choose, this piece ships with either the super clone’s clone Cal. 4130, rated at 72 hours of power reserve, or the A-grade’s Japanese automatic chronograph. The three-register layout across the dial drives running seconds, 30-minute counter, and 12-hour totalizer, mirroring the subdial arrangement Rolex has maintained across the Daytona line for decades. The tachymeter scale on the bezel ring completes the chronograph toolset. For a different take on the gold Daytona, the 126515LN in rose gold with chocolate dial swaps bracelet metal and dial texture entirely. You will find every available reference in our Daytona collection.

How It Compares

Among yellow gold Daytonas, the 116508 on Oyster bracelet represents the classic approach. It predates the Oysterflex-equipped references and delivers a more traditional precious-metal chronograph look. Where newer 116518LN versions move toward rubber for comfort, the m116508-0014 keeps everything in matching gold. That commitment to a single material throughout case and bracelet is what defines this particular replica Daytona m116508 in the broader range. The black counters are the detail to check first: they turn a champagne-and-gold face into a two-colour dial, which is how this champagne Daytona copy differs from the tone-on-tone -0003.

Rolex Daytona 116508 Champagne Black Subdials Replica FAQ

How does the Daytona 116508-0014 differ from the all-champagne 116508-0003?

The -0014 sets three black subdials on its champagne dial, while the -0003 keeps the subdials in the dial’s own champagne shade. Case, engraved gold bezel and Oyster bracelet are shared; the counters, and the luminous white batons that replace the gold ones of the -0003, tell the two apart.

What does the Rolex Daytona 116508 Champagne Black Subdials replica cost?

The super clone with clone Cal. 4130 is $1,159; the A-grade built around a Japanese automatic movement is $379. Our BT or Clean Daytona factory comparison shows what the higher price buys in the chronograph itself: column wheel, vertical clutch and pusher feel.
