Reigning favourite
Since 2023, Alcaraz is frequently pictured wearing his treasured perfect replica Rolex watches, ref. 116518LN-0076, whether he’s on or off the court—and it’s the watch he’s worn to many a crowning moment.
Shortly after he bagged his second Wimbledon victory, in July 2024, he was quoted saying: “The high quality copy Rolex Daytona I am wearing right now is also the watch I wore when I lifted the Wimbledon trophy last year. It has been with me for some very important moments and holds many memories from my tennis career.”
Best Replica Rolex Day-Date ref. 18038 ‘Stella’
Finally, we have another Swiss made fake Rolex Day-Date “Stella,” this time with a brilliant green lacquer dial. There were four distinct variations of the Stella dial, with this one being a series three as noted by the flat dial and “T Swiss Made T” marking along the bottom. Due to the pigments being mixed by hand, the colors of these dials do have a range of variations, and this tone of green perfectly compliments the yellow-gold case. It’s an undeniably great combination, and one that Rolex still riffs on to this day within the Day-Date collection. No modern green-dial Day-Date is quite as vibrant as we see here, however.
This reference 18038 with green Stella dial is available from Roy & Sacha Davidoff, and has aged in a beautifully subtle manner. The dial itself is free of any cracks or damage, representing a well preserved example of a rare dial. All of the lume plots are intact, and have aged to a pleasing off-white color. The 36 mm yellow-gold case shows very little signs of wear, making this something of a time capsule of an important era—not only of the Day-Date, but of cheap super clone Rolex watches itself as it transitioned into the modern era.
