The CBD Factory interpretation of the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona (reference M116518ln-0048) has captured the attention of enthusiasts for its striking champagne sunburst dial and 18K gold-toned case. This aims to replicate the signature “Shawn Yue” style, where the dial’s layered golden glow shifts with light, complementing the warm case finish. The factory prioritizes dial color accuracy and brushed-metal texture, ensuring a visual match that surprises many.

Dial and Case Craftsmanship

At the heart of this model is a champagne dial with a sunburst effect, paired with a black snail-style small seconds register that adds contrast and readability. The hour markers and hands feature Chromalight luminous material, emitting a blue glow in low light—a functional and aesthetic touch. The black Cerachrom ceramic bezel is crafted via high-temperature molding, with engraved, scratch-resistant markings that resist fading. The 40mm case diameter balances wrist presence with everyday comfort, and the total weight of 158.5 grams, thanks to a special alloy, provides a solid feel akin to the authentic piece.

Movement and Performance

Powered by the Dandong 4130 automatic chronograph movement, this offers a significant upgrade over standard 7750-based. The integrated design keeps the case thickness around 12.5mm, close to the genuine model. The chronograph functions—start, stop, reset—operate smoothly, with a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock, and running seconds at 6 o’clock. While it cannot replicate Rolex’s 72-hour power reserve or vertical clutch construction, the movement delivers reliable timekeeping and avoids common functional issues seen in entry-level collectibles.

Strap and Wearability

The Oysterflex-style black rubber strap incorporates flexible metal inserts, offering the comfort of rubber with the stability of metal. The folding clasp, finished in 18K gold color, adds a refined luxury touch. This combination ensures the watch feels secure and elegant on the wrist, suitable for both casual and dressier occasions.
