But obviously such an expensive watch is going to tell the time flawlessly as well.
And your first sentence just reeks with stupidity and ignorance, btw.

Eh, actually no. No automatic watch, even Rolex, tells perfect time. All automatic movements lose or gain a few seconds a day. Rolex watches are certified by the COSC though to be within 2 seconds +/- a day.
The best advice for buying a replica is not to spend a lot. The swiss movement (if it is one) will likely be an ETA 2824-2. This is a popular swiss auto in the industry. A good one will regulate to about +/- 8 sec. a day.
If you simply want a watch with the Rolex crown on it don't invest a bunch. If you want the same look but don't necessarily need it to say Rolex you can look at a
Steinhart . Same look, way better quality than a replica, and you'll save hundreds.
