Replica Rolex Daytona 40 mm 126509 Bright Blue Dial

Blue on blue

The counters here are the same blue as the dial rather than a contrast colour. Each is outlined by a silver ring with a thin red circle inside, and the steel batons and hands pick up the light. In shade the sunburst turns towards navy, in sunlight it gets bright. For contrast in the same case, compare the 126509 bright black with gem-set markers or the 126509 silver dial.

126509 blue dial specifications

Case, bezel and bracelet

The bezel is metal, not ceramic, with the tachymeter scale engraved into it. Case, crown, pushers and the three-link Oyster bracelet are 904L steel in a white gold tone, closing with a folding clasp, and the crystal is sapphire with an anti-reflective coating. Rated to 30 m, it copes with rain and washing up, not with the pool.

One price, no movement choice

This model comes at one price with a Swiss automatic chronograph, so the product page offers no choice of movement. The counters keep the standard layout of 30 minutes at 3, seconds at 6 and 12 hours at 9. Other white-tone and steel models sit in our Daytona collection.

Are the counters on the 126509 blue dial silver?

No, they are blue like the dial. Each one is outlined by a silver ring with a thin red circle inside it, which is easy to miss in small photos but clear in close-ups.
