Let me be clear: I usually don’t wear genuine dress replica watches. I don’t wear clothing that calls for dress watches, and I don’t find myself in situations where wearing a dress watch is appropriate. Having that out of the way, how could I choose a dress watch anyway? Well, some of the high quality fake watches in my collection come close. And although mainly vintage, even some modern watches might fit in here.

But as this article has another angle — investing in a dress watch — my choice wasn’t too difficult. It had to be a perfect fake Rolex. Relatively speaking, vintage Rolex Day-Dates are still not too expensive to acquire, specifically if you look for the head only. Some might see it more as a luxury sports watch, but I think a vintage 1:1 replica Rolex Day-Date like mine from 1967 does the job as a dress watch quite well. When worn on a leather strap, it instantly becomes classy, and on a blue nubuck strap, it even looks joyful.

And you might not realize it, but swapping straps on a vintage yellow gold luxury replica Rolex Day-Date is so much fun. It blends perfectly with almost every color and strap material and adapts to almost any clothing style. Who would have thought of a Swiss movement fake Rolex Day-Date as a strap monster?
