Rolex Daytona 116508 Yellow Gold Champagne Dial Super Clone
The Golden Standard of Racing Heritage
The Rolex Daytona 116508 embodies the perfect blend of sport and prestige.
VS Factory’s 2024 re-creation refines every contour of the legendary chronograph — the warm champagne sunburst dial, contrasting black sub-registers, and mirror-polished 18 K yellow-gold tone capture the unmistakable charisma of the original reference.
Each dial undergoes a UV radial brushing process that produces an organic sun-ray reflection identical to Rolex’s champagne finish. The indexes, hands, and crown logo are all 18 K-plated with laser-engraved outlines for crisp precision.

“The 116508 taught us the importance of warmth — not just in color, but in balance.
Every dial must glow, never glare.”
