Some of the most sought after watches on the market are the earliest models of the Daytona. These models are distinguishable by their reference codes which have only four digits, whereas later models have reference numbers of six digits.

One of the reasons for their popularity now is their scarcity. When the Daytona was first launched, its demand was modest. When demand increased later, Rolex released a second series of the watch so that supply would meet the growing demand. While these older model Daytonas sell for extremely high prices at auction, a typical Rolex Daytona costs around ten thousand dollars and upwards as jewels are added.

For those who are adamant about having the additional functions of a genuine Rolex, ten grand may not be too steep a price to pay. The Daytona can measure speeds up to 400 units per hour, whether the units are miles or kilometers. Its bezel doubles as a tachymeter that can measure time over a preset distance and thereby calculate speed. It also includes the Panachrom hairspring created by Rolex to protect against electric shocks. Made from a paramagnetic alloy rather than a ferromagnetic alloy like other oscillator hairsprings, it is not affected by magnetic fields and is ten times more effective at protecting from shocks.

However, for the majority of the population, the functions necessary for timing automobile races are not paramount. A fake Rolex Daytona watch will serve their purposes without demanding a major investment. Most customers are looking for a dependable, precise timepiece that will last them years and importantly, bear the classic and status marking look of an expensive Rolex luxury watch. With a high grade fake Rolex Daytona watch, you can acquire that expensive look and reliability for the reasonable price of just one or two hundred dollars.
