Daytona 11660 fake

10 years ago (2013), the arrival of the Rolex Platinum Shell Daytona 116506 brought the Ice Blue Disc into the spotlight for watch enthusiasts. The ice blue dial, combined with the platinum case, became the most popular and prestigious color in high-end watches. At that time, just like Rolex‘s “Ice Blue Di” and “Ice Blue DD” platinum watches, which had their own platinum shells and platinum bracelets, were very expensive. Coupled with intense speculation, the ice blue dial gained fame, but very few people could actually own one.

In 2020, Rolex hype reached its peak, and Bing Landi hit the “historical peak” at 900,000, which is out of reach. However, at that moment, Breitling suddenly released a “special” ice blue dial mechanical chronograph. With an ice blue dial and a platinum bezel, this Breitling quickly caught the attention of enthusiasts who were searching for a ice blue and platinum combination.

The reason I call this ice blue mechanical chronograph “special” is that, compared to regular mechanical chronographs, this ice blue dial is very unique. Not only was the steel ring of the regular mechanical chronograph replaced with a platinum ring, but it also didn’t use the “bullet bracelet” typical of mechanical chronographs, opting instead for a strap.
