Trojano 0 Posted March 7, 2023 Hi, I am new to the forums, its good to be here. I am interested in a rolex daytona and from what I have noticed there are many experienced people around here, so if you may kindly recommend me the best price/quality TD, I am in europe and my budget would be max 400$ Thanks in advance!

GenTLe 1,503 Posted March 7, 2023 Sorry mate, 400€ for a Daytona now it's way too low. Those around that amount are with a (very) bad movement that will give you problems. Oh and are at least 2mm thicker than the gen. Damn, they are even too few for a good Submariner nowadays! Good ones are around 750€ and have inside a movement which is the clone of the Rolex. For instance look here: Now, Noob doesn't exist anymore, Clean is still on the top tier. And a Clean Daytona is like this: https://jtime.io/us/brands.html?cat=164 in term of price. There were ARF Daytona few years ago, they were ok, thin, and with a decent movement but... The hour and minute chrono hands were fake. They are still a good proposition, but they are still near 500€ (and I'm not sure they're still available), look here for instance: https://jtime.io/us/search/Arf daytona Anyway, if you look OUTSIDE the boring and expensive "Rolex", there're A LOT of good watches that are around your budget and are valuable brands like IWC, Cartier, Breitling, Panerai etc etc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,288 Posted March 8, 2023 A secondhand ARF should meet the requirements and budget. Join RWI and scour the member sales for one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
