BL Factory Replica Rolex Daytona 116520LV – Green Lizard in the Rain Forest – Susan Reviews on Replica Watches

The replica Rolex Daytona 116520LV, nicknamed ‘Green Lizard’ for its distinctive green ceramic bezel and subdials on a white dial, is an intriguing creation from the small BL factory. Unlike authentic Rolex models, this watch exists solely in the replica market, joining other fictional designs like the Daytona II and Sea-Dweller D-Green. BL factory likely drew inspiration from the genuine Submariner 116610LV’s green bezel when naming this model.

Crafted from 316L stainless steel (not Rolex’s 904L), the 40mm case features a 15mm thickness with alternating brushed and polished surfaces. The chronograph buttons remain non-functional unless unscrewed, and the lugs lack the engravings found on genuine Rolex watches. The white dial showcases three green-ringed subdials that accurately track seconds, minutes, and hours. While equipped with luminous markers and an Asia clone 4130 movement (based on a Chinese chronograph), this replica demonstrates BL factory’s creative liberties with non-existent Rolex designs.

The bracelet mirrors genuine construction with polished center links and brushed outer links, adjustable via screws. As this model gains market traction, BL factory may upgrade to 904L steel. This replica exemplifies how replica manufacturers sometimes invent models that Rolex never produced.
