Artisans de Genève Zinal Project 116520 Replica - 4130 Skeleton Automatic Chronograph

The Artisans de Genève Zinal Project 116520 replica takes inspiration from one of the most distinctive skeletonized interpretations of the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona platform. Built around the visual proportions of the Daytona Ref. 116520, this configuration combines a 40 mm stainless steel-style chronograph case with a transparent tachymeter bezel, extensively openworked dial and contrasting blue hands.

The skeletonized dial exposes the mechanical structure beneath the hands and chronograph registers, revealing silver-tone bridges, gold-tone wheels and multiple layers of the movement architecture. Three chronograph registers preserve the recognizable Daytona layout, while vivid blue central hands and subdial hands create strong contrast against the metallic movement components.

This replica version is equipped with a 4130-style skeleton automatic chronograph movement. The original Artisans de Genève Zinal personalization was based on the Rolex Daytona Ref. 116520 and a heavily modified Calibre 4130. This replica follows the visual and mechanical concept of that project but should not be represented as containing a genuine Rolex-manufactured or genuine Artisans de Genève-modified Calibre 4130.

Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful details about the 4130-style skeleton movement, transparent tachymeter bezel, openworked dial and exhibition case back.

What movement is used in this Zinal Project 116520 replica?

This replica uses a 4130-style skeleton automatic chronograph movement. Its architecture and decoration are intended to reproduce the appearance of a skeletonized Daytona-style calibre, but it should not be confused with a genuine Rolex-manufactured Calibre 4130.

What calibre was used as the basis of the original Artisans de Genève Zinal Project?

The original Zinal Project was based on a Rolex Cosmograph Daytona Ref. 116520 and a heavily modified Calibre 4130. Artisans de Genève extensively skeletonized and refinished the movement as part of the private customization project.

Is the dial fully skeletonized?

Yes. The openworked dial is designed to expose the movement architecture beneath the hands and chronograph registers, allowing gears, bridges and decorative movement components to remain visible from the front.

Does this watch have an exhibition case back?

Yes. The transparent exhibition case back reveals the skeletonized movement and decorative blue automatic rotor, allowing the mechanical construction to be viewed from both sides of the watch.

What do the three subdials display?

The three-register layout follows the Daytona chronograph configuration, combining running seconds with elapsed-minute and elapsed-hour chronograph counters. Exact functional correspondence should be verified on the specific replica movement.

Is the bezel transparent?

Yes. This configuration uses a transparent or sapphire-style fixed tachymeter bezel with white graduations, reinforcing the open and technical appearance of the skeletonized watch.

Is this an official Artisans de Genève watch?

No. This product is a replica inspired by the Zinal Project aesthetic. The original Zinal Project was an independent private customization performed by Artisans de Genève on a client's Daytona 116520.

Is the replica guaranteed to have a 72-hour power reserve?

No. Approximately 72 hours is associated with the original Calibre 4130-based specification. The actual power reserve of a replica 4130-style skeleton movement depends on its specific construction, mainspring, condition and regulation.

Can I swim with this watch?

Replica water resistance should not be assumed from the genuine Daytona specification, particularly on a watch using a transparent exhibition case back. A professional pressure test is recommended before swimming, showering or submersion.

What should I inspect when the watch arrives?

Check the tachymeter-bezel printing, skeleton dial alignment, subdial hand positioning, central chronograph reset position, crown threading, screw-down pusher operation, rotor movement, bracelet articulation and clasp closure. The chronograph seconds hand should return cleanly to its reset position after use.
