In 1967, Rolex Day-Date Replica released its first Hi-Beat calibre 5740C, also a 5Hz movement. This was, however, not placed in a Rolex Day-Date Replica watch, but in a model known as the "Lord Marvel". The first Rolex Day-Date Replica with a Hi-Beat movement appeared in the 61GS, an absolute marvel of design and engineering. Amusingly, a full 36,000 watches of the 61GS model were created. If you are interested in a first Rolex Day-Date Replica vintage watch, this is the perfect place to start, especially as prices tend to range around the accessible 2,500 US dollar mark.
And if the Hi-Beat movement is interesting to you, what you should know is that this year, to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the first Rolex Day-Date Replica, the brand has created a watch with an all-new Hi-Beat calibre, the 9S5A, which features an improved 80 hours of power reserve and a new inertia balance,Rolex Day Date Replica a full-balance bridge anchored on both sides, a new hairspring with a special overcoil that aids in concentric breathing and an incredibly cool new escapement.
This new escapement does away with the Swiss anchor design and introduces instead the dual-impulse escapement, which features an eight-point skeletonised escape wheel, which works in conjunction with a lever-type escapement, so that sliding friction is only produced when the balance swings counter-clockwise and not clockwise. This better and more badass version of the Hi-Beat was launched earlier this year in the charming SLGH002 dress watch.
This limited-edition watch is in some ways the ultimate sleeper, as it looks like a beautifully finished and appealingly understated three-hand watch until you realise it has the single most advanced 5Hz movement on the planet beating within, though not at an insignificant cost.
Our Hi-Beat Rolex Day-Date Replica Watches: The SBGH245G & the SBGJ201G
For our first official retail salvo of Rolex Day-Date Replica watches, we understood the importance of offering what we consider to be two of the most iconic Hi-Beat watches created by this extraordinary Japanese manufacture. Because the technology featured in the 9S85 and 9S86 movement, is directly descended from the Rolex Day-Date Replica's incredible success at the Neuchatel Observatory trials, where they rapidly understood a higher vibrational speed allows the oscillator to simultaneously shrug off micro-shocks subjected to it, as well as, divide time to smaller fractions of a second resulting in greater accuracy. Indeed,rolex replica because of its success at these Swiss Trials, you could argue that no brand in the world has greater legitimacy in the realm of high frequency movements.
