Replica cheap Rotary GS00656/06 is a very affordable model that’s well worth taking a closer look at.
Watch Review
This replica model has a very open skeleton design and its dial features rose gold hour markers along with a rose gold hour, minute, and seconds hands. There’s a lack of any lume which might be a concern to some people. The casing itself is made of stainless steel that’s PVD rose gold plated.
Type Of Crystal
Protecting the front dial and rear casing we have a mineral crystal class. This miner glass specially hardened to make it more resistant to scratches and knocks.
Watch Size
Taking a look at the size of the fake watch now, we find everything is fairly typical for a men’s watch. The casing diameter is 40mm whilst the thickness is 12mm. This is quite a common size these days and it suitable for many wrist sizes.
Strap
The strap is made of a dark tan soft genuine leather and has a width of 20mm. There’s some nice white detailing with the stitching that adds another nice aspect to the design of the watch. The strap fastens with a typical buckle style clasp that you can see in the image further below.
Extra features
A key feature for these skeleton watches from Rotary is their exhibition casebacks. These allow you to take a look at the inner workings of the watch through the rear casing.
Water Resistance Rating
The water resistance level isn’t a primary feature of this watch but it does still come with a 50m rating. A rating of 50m / 5 Bar / 150ft makes this watch suitable for swimming, white water rafting, non-snorkeling water related work, and fishing.
