Michael Caine has minted at least one widely quoted and imitated character for every decade of his epic 65-year long career in the movies. Today’s model is a perfect replica Rolex Day-Date. Younger generations perhaps know him best as Alfred, Batman’s trusty butler and father figure in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, in which he wears a Traser H3 Black Storm Pro, a brand which has supplied the US Army and Swiss Airforce, subtly alluding to the character’s backstory as a member of the SAS.

In the Eighties, he dazzled us as the suave conman Lawrence Jamieson in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, wearing what else but a gold luxury fake Rolex Oyster Day Date. But it was in the 60s and 70s in which he made his name as the nation’s favourite, sharply dressed cockney charmer with a series of hit films which included Zulu, The Italian Job, Alfie, and Get Carter, becoming a style icon in the process.

Hollywood beckoned after his marvellous turn in Alfie, with Caine starring in the crime comedy Gambit and the Harry Palmer sequels, Deadfall, and Magus. It’s around this time that Caine can be seen in publicity shots wearing a best 1:1 replica Rolex Day-Date with a fluted bezel on a dark brown strap.

This rather tasty kettle also makes an appearance in “Get Carter’ in which he plays the eponymous gangster dressed in a beautiful blue mohair Hayward three-piece suit accessorised with a pump-action shotgun, oversized cufflinks, and the AAA quality fake Rolex worn slung low on his wrist. This was Caine’s personal watch which he could be seen wearing on and off-screen for well over a decade.

Caine has often talked about his working-class origins and how he rewarded himself with luxuries like bespoke clothes and shoes, and, of course, a nice watch, as soon as he hit the big time. A gold Rolex fake for sale UK remains for movie stars and civilians alike, a symbol of success.
