-
Sub-dials (Chronograph): Three sub-dials situated at the 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions.

Identification Notes (Replica Indicators)
While it is styled after a high-end luxury watch, there are several immediate indicators that this is a counterfeit(often categorized in replica markets under the "AAA" grade stamped on the crystal):
-
Date Window: This watch features a date window between the 4 and 5 o'clock positions. An authentic Rolex Daytona does not have a date complication.
-
Sub-dial Layout: The sub-dials feature markings for a 24-hour clock and standard calendar days rather than true mechanical chronograph stopwatch functions (hours/minutes elapsed).
