About the movement, ZF claimed that it is a clone IWC 89361, actually it is modified from a Chinese chronograph movement, we call it Asia Valjoux 7750, whatever behind the solid case back, the movement can completely achieve all functions of genuine watch. Besides, the stability of this type of Asia Valjoux 7750 has been tested for more than 10 years, it is trustworthy.Watch band looks nylon on the outside, but it is actually made of calf leather, you can see it on the back side. The nylon face outside can prevent rain and water drops when washing your hands, while the genuine leather that touches your skin will bring you a great wearing comfort. So such type of band has multiple purposes. The buckle on the band is crafted very well and has a good brushing finish.The review is done, let’s appreciate their acutal photos below.
It is a nice big-crown Submariner, there is a Rolex Crown Logo on face, while under the crown logo, it is “BREVET” not “ROLEX”. Almost all vintage Rolex watches adopt domed plexi plastic crystal face, so does this one.The dial is black, featuring yellowish hour markers and printings. Benz hands are a bit narrower, not that wide on modern Submariners. The printing “200m = 600ft” says that genuine 6538 could be water resistant to 200 meters, however, this replica has been tested in factory to be 30m waterproof. The dial and bezel pearl all emit strong green light in dark place.The replica big crown 6538 Submariner is equipped with an Asian ETA 2836-2 movement, which is modified from a Chinese Sea-Gull automatic movement. Many readers who have sent me inquiries asked to equip real Swiss ETA movement in their watches, the truth is that some replica watches could be equipped with real Swiss ETA calibre, but some vintage Rolex like this one is not able to be installed.The King in Deep Sea Diving – Replica Rolex D-Blue 116660 James Cameron WatchTo pay tribute to the historic diving depth record which James Cameron created, Rolex published Deepsea D-Blue watch, which is to memorate the event which James Cameron succeeded in reaching the deepest Mariana Trench under deep sea.The watch is a high-tech product, with thick case and crystal, best lume material applied on the dial, 116660 could withstand the greatest pressure under water, and the dial could offer you the best readability even in the greatest darkness of Mariana Trench.Now I am pleased to introduce the replica watch of Sea-Dweller Deepsea D-Blue 116660, there are two types of this replica in the market, one is in low quality at cheap price, the other is this one I am going to introduce here, it is made by a big famous factory named “Noob”, we call it N. This factory is good at manufacturing good quality Rolex Submariner and Sea-Dweller replicas.The case is made of 316F stainless steel and has a brushed face, it is 43mm in diameter but seems to be bigger and thicker than other Submariner and Deepsea replicas.
The replica is a real chronograph watch because its basic movement is a valjoux 7750 chronograph movement. The factory modified its movement plates and auto rotor to make it look closer to genuine IWC 79350 Caliber, and they did it. When you open the case back, you can not even tell the movement difference between the replica and genuine. So you can relax and do not worry to be spotted when wearing it among your friends.Black leather strap, plus black hand stitching, perfectly match the leisure style of the replica watch. The band is made of genuine alligator leather, it will be very durable. The leather band is fitted a deployant clasp, which is brushed and features “IWC” engraving. This IWC Portuguese is very necessary for men who need a watch to fit their business suits.
Sticking with undersea operations, the Oris ProDiver collection is an interesting one, given that Oris is one of the few watch companies that remains actively engaged in dealings with commercial divers. More specifically, Roman Frischknecht is a commercial diver that has been an Oris ambassador for some time, and rather than simply being an ambassador in name, Roman has played a crucial role in the development of the ProDiver collection ahead of its launch in 2009.It was his insight that led to the creation of the brand’s bezel locking system, known as a Rotation Safety System. Given the level of safety and security protocols involved in his line of work, Roman knew that if he was to be using a conventional dive watch in a modern dive environment, there could be absolutely no room for error, thus a locking mechanism (as seen in other divers like the Omega Ploprof, among others) would be mandatory.Although the roots of the Yacht-Master II relate to activities on the water’s surface rather than deep below, its unique functionality is perfectly suited to this category. After all, the Rolex Yacht-Master II is what is often referred to as yachting timer – a countdown chronograph that can be used to properly measure the start time of a regatta, also known as a sailing race.Arguably the most complex watch in the present Rolex collection, the Yacht-Master II uses an interesting combination of bezel position, crown position, and pusher action in order to set its countdown duration between 1 and 10 minutes, with the chronograph capable of flyback (or fly-forward) functionality to the pre-set time with a single activation of its lower pusher. While many Yacht-Master II wearers are unlikely to ever use this highly specific function for its actual intended purpose. being able to run a countdown like this isn’t shy on practical daily-life applications… grilling timer, anyone?
