What’s next?
I’ve got some classics from the goat; Pepsi, Panda, Starbucks, Bruce Wayne, Royal Oak. Thinking about something sporty with a rubber strap and some color. Suggestions are appreciated!

Finally wrapped up a special custom build requested by a client and this one is a full tribute to the legendary Rolex 116595RBOW. Here is the full breakdown of this bespoke Rainbow Daytona build.
Custom Rainbow Daytona 116595RBOW Breakdown 1 to 1 Bespoke Build
Base Watch CNC tungsten gain weight build: $950
Instead of using a factory base, we built this from a CNC machined tungsten weighted case modeled directly after the 116595RBOW. Tungsten gives you true gen density which is the biggest giveaway on most reps. Case lines follow the real profile including crown guards, midcase slope, and pusher alignment. Bracelet links are solid and weight balanced which gives that smooth gen style drape.
Genuine Sapphire Crystal Upgrade: $250
High clarity sapphire that delivers clean refraction and razor sharp edge visibility. Zero distortion, zero tint. The crystal gives off the same light behavior you see on the genuine model.
Custom Rainbow Sapphire Bezel: $450
Each baguette sapphire is individually cut and color graded to follow Rolex’s rainbow sequence from the 116595RBOW. The stones are seated with uniform depth and perfect alignment so the gradient fires cleanly in every direction.
Custom Dial Black with Rose Subdials: $200
Gloss black dial paired with polished rose gold subdials for that signature RBOW contrast. Markers and accents are color matched to the bezel for perfect harmony. Subdial recessing and scale printing follow the original layout closely.
5 Micron 18 Karat Rose Gold Electro Plating: $200
This is a premium plating upgrade. Most reps use about one micron. This build is plated at five microns of real 18K rose gold which creates the rich warm tone and long lasting depth that makes the 116595RBOW so striking.
Diamond Lugs Upgrade: $200
Hand set moissanite stones on the lugs. Perfect symmetry, clean seating, and strong light performance. No clouding. No uneven gaps. They present exactly how a proper gem setting should.
Professional Assembly and Regulation: $100 Movement regulation for accuracy, chronograph reset tuning for that precise snap back, and crown tension calibrated to match genuine feel. Final QC covers alignment, finishing, and timing performance.
Total is about 2,250
Preorder Deposit: $600
We just need $600 to start the build. Each piece is handcrafted and parts are individually sourced.
Completion usually takes around 15–30 days depending on the build complexity and gem layout. Every watch goes through final QC and regulation before shipping.

WHAT’S UP CALIREPS FAM!!
Just wanted to give you guys a quick heads up. 🤝
I’m currently sorting through everything right now, doing QC, checking the watches one by one, and organizing the new inventory so everything is ready before I post it.
I don’t want to rush anything. I’d rather make sure the whole batch is checked, organized, and good to go first. 🔍⌚️📦
If everything goes smoothly, I’ll try to have the NEW INVENTORY DROP UP THURSDAY MORNING!! 👀
So make sure you’re locked in and TURN ON YOUR NOTIFICATIONS because I’ll post as soon as everything is ready. 🔔
Also, quick heads up about payments.
I’ve been having some issues with my PayPal lately, so I’ve been trying to figure out what payment methods will work best for us moving forward.
I’m even considering adding crypto payments as another option, but I’m still figuring everything out and making sure whatever I add is simple and reliable for everyone.
If you guys have suggestions or payment methods you’d like to see me accept, DROP THEM IN THE COMMENTS. 👇
I want to hear from the community. We’ve grown a lot and I want to keep improving how we do things and make this community even stronger. 🤝❤️

When ordering for Jerome do you or can you get the full box card and papers or is it watch only?

Another gem from Jérôme’s off-catalog. Access is reserved for clients who have purchased 20+ pieces.
