In my last post about the Day-Date from RC factory, I have already made a brief review on their Day-Date watches, please read it at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/06/30/rc-day-date/, RC is a new maker in the increased weight Rolex Day-Date field, too many factories are making this type of Rolex replicas, every factory is saying their watches are very good, but a lot of customers have been scammed, today, let me talk more about the Day-Date from RC. In future, I will keep an eye on their watches and share my final thoughts here.
Before my today’s work, I want to say something, that is some factories are cheating customers with exaggerated or false claims. Take the Day-Date from CBD factory as an example. In their advertising, I remember they said their Day-Date will not have the issue of case peeling off, but after checking the finish of the bracelet, you will see they are lying. Please check the first picture below, these links were taken off from a Day-Date made by CBD. It is a golden watch, but each link is not fully gold plated, besides, there are two layers of each link, you can see obvious gap, the inner material is probably tungsten steel and the outer is wrapped with stainless steel, the two types of materials can not fuse into a single piece, so cracks form between them. So, when CBD said their Day-Date would not have the peeling off issue, it is a lie.
Next, let us see the Day-Date from RC Factory, in my opinion, currently their Day-Date looks better than the one made by THB and CBD, which both have the peeling off issue. Their prices are too expensive, so not worth purchasing. Currently the Day-Date from RC looks good and worth a try. Besides, the increased weight Day-Date from GM and QF is also worth buying and is the most cost efficient.
The weight of the whole watch is about 208.3 grams, this is a golden Day-Date, the gold tone looks nice, not shiny and looks very close to the golden color on genuine Rolex.
The case is not thick, it is about 12.3mm to 12.6mm. I thought it will be much thicker, but after measuring the actual watch, the case has not been thickened.
The case of the watch is about 102 grams, it is 101.8 grams.
The movement inside is a SH3255, after opening the case back and I weigh the case, it comes to 102.1 grams.
The case back is 27.7 grams, it has been added with extra weight on basis of a common case back.
The bracelet has a weight of 106.1 grams.
The weight of the clasp.
Each link has a weight of 3.2 grams.
Each link is fully plated with gold, no stainless steel part you can see, no cracking gap on the link, this is much better than that on CBD Day-Date. So, what are the materials used by them to make the bracelet? They are integraded very well.
This is my second review on the RC Day-Date, I think it is a good watch, however, we still need more time to see if their watch will have the issue of peeling off, I will follow up on this and share my third review.
