Every watch enthusiast has, at least, once taken a glance at the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date replica watches. This series from the Rolex collection has been frequently the subject of discussions among watch collectors and experts. There is a funny tradition among watch lovers to give watches special nicknames. The nicknames make them easier to differentiate from other collections.
Amusing or not, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date replica line has gained 2 nicknames. We would like to unveil these nicknames, as well as their origins in this article. Therefore, you become even more familiar with this collection. In addition, we will cover the “serious” side as well. As a result, you will discover the collection from all angles possible.
What’s the name about?
Before unveiling the specifics of the replica Oyster Perpetual Date-Day, you should first know the hidden meaning of the commotion’s name. You will discover then that the full name of the replica collection is not only a simple denomination. It conveys a lot of specific particularities, namely this series.
“Oyster” term
This term, actually, refers to the replica watch case. The Rolex watch house designed this specific case for the first release of a waterproof case ever. Therefore, the Oyster case is synonymous with the case that completely protects the inner watch mechanism against water and moisture. The descriptive element of such a case is the screw-down crown, which supports the water-resistance protection. Currently, almost all genuine Rolex timepieces are produced with such a type of case.
“Perpetual” term
This term is describing the watch type of movement. As you might already know, there are several types of watch movements. The Perpetual one prevalently refers to the self-winding mechanism.
“Day” term
This term refers to the additional complication integrated into the watch mechanism. As you might intuit, it’s about the day of the week and usually, it showcases through a smooth window. Different replica watches display the day window on different parts of the dial. As for this model, in particular, you can see the day window instead of the 12 o’clock index.
“Date” term
Similar to the day window, the date complication comes to reveal the date of the month. As a general rule, it is positioned at the 3 o’clock marker.
Specific particularities
If you are a veteran in the horological industry, you might already know that Rolex is, in most cases, the first to introduce revolutionary features into the watch industry. That is the case with the Perpetual Day-Date watch, as well. As a matter of fact, the brand created the first watch concept to display both the day and date on a timepiece. Therefore, this is the primary specificity of this line.
Another distinct peculiarity of this timepiece consists in its unique bracelet. Since there are no similar bracelets in the industry, this one is known as the “President bracelet” and comes in an unrepeatable design. On the other hand, the brand has also created additional types of bracelets and straps for this series, just to bring comfort to different watch aficionados’ tastes. Similarly, the replica versions of these watches offer a large variety of bracelets and straps, to meet all customer’s demands.
The funny aspects of the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date Replica Watches
Watch lovers adore giving different nicknames to timepieces. By such means, they identify better the specs and particularities of a certain watch. In addition, this helps to not get lost in the long names or the multitude of watches’ collections.
As you might have guessed, the first nickname of this replica watch is referred to as the “President watch”. Funny or not, this nickname is related to the fact that a vast number of US presidents indeed wore the legendary genuine timepiece. Nowadays, watch collectors are ready to pay huge amounts of money not for the watch’s functions or expensive materials. They rather look for this watch because it associates with power, status, wealth, and prestige. So do the watch enthusiasts that prefer replica watches. There is no need to spend a fortune in order to own an evocative timepiece with a resonating history behind it. This is why this replica watch is the most preferred by our customers as a gift for their beloved ones.
The other nickname of the replica timepiece comes to facilitate its long pronunciation. Instead of calling this timepiece “Rolex Oyster Perpetual Day-Date Replica Watch”, watch lovers name it simply “Day-Date”. When you say “Day-Date” it is clear what you refer to. There is no need to specify the Oyster and the Perpetual features since most of the modern replicas already come in an Oyster case.
Important aspects to consider while opting for this replica watch
Aspect #1
Remember that not all replica watch stores produce water-resistant replica timepieces. Even though the replica watch features the term “Oyster”, it’s pretty likely that the vendor uses the term just to refer to the official name of the watch, either then for its waterproof capacity. Therefore, you should check with the dealer whether the watch is or not as waterproof as the genuine model.
Aspect #2
Several replica watch dealers do offer waterproof Rolex replicas. However, you should be careful with the replica watch movement. As a general rule, Rolex Oyster Perpetual replicas with a common movement (Asian, if you wish) are only daily water resistant. If you wish to have a reliable waterproof replica watch, you might have to pay an extra fee.
As for the Swiss-made replica watches, the strong waterproof capacity is integrated by default, and you won’t need to pay for the additional service. Our recommendation is to clarify this aspect with your replica dealer before placing the order.
