Q-Factory 2026 Edition — Oysterflex Strap
Q-Factory addresses the primary critique of precious metal Daytona replicas by integrating a high-density tungsten-steel alloy case. Weighing in at 150 grams, this specific M126518LN reference mitigates the top-heavy imbalance typically felt on lighter Oysterflex replicas, providing the tactile heft of genuine 18K gold.
The time-keeping architecture relies on the clone Calibre 4131 movement. It features a functioning vertical clutch for smooth chronograph actuation and maintains the correct sub-dial layout. Power reserve is rated at approximately 36 hours.
The case profile accurately mirrors the updated 126518LN dimensions, wrapped in a double-layer 18K yellow gold PVD treatment to achieve the correct 2N tone. Its vibrant turquoise blue lacquer dial displays precise color accuracy, contrasted by black sub-registers and a sharp Cerachrom ceramic bezel.
- Movement: Clone Calibre 4131 — Approximately 36 hours
- Case Material: Tungsten-Steel alloy, 40mm, 46.5mm lug-to-lug, 150g

This reference serves collectors seeking the tactile authority of a solid gold piece without compromising on the vivid aesthetic of the turquoise dial. The tungsten construction ensures it wears with deliberate presence rather than feeling like a lightweight placeholder.
