In the world of luxury product acquisition, there are few things more distressing to the mind of a passionate collector than the thought of harm coming to their valued possessions. Yes, nothing in this realm can hold a candle to health or the well-being of one’s loved ones, but these small treasures, often rare or unique (and certainly expensive) hold a special place in the heart of one who has dedicated their time and effort to make them theirs.I am often asked if it is important to insure a collection of used luxury watches. In fact, I am asked it more often then makes conscionable sense to me, because the answer is simple: Yes, yes you should. And more to the point, if you own a luxury watch like a Rolex Submariner (let alone if you own numerous luxury watches) and you’re asking that question, you should save your breath for the insurance provider on the other end of the phone.And that’s really the best place to start. In this digital age, it seems we’ve all become a bit interaction-shy, but with a complex and potentially serious situation like making an insurance claim, it is always best to have set-up your policy having talked directly to another human being – an expert in their field. You really should leave nothing to chance. Don’t be afraid to ask stupid questions – insurance is complicated and rules and regulations vary from country to country (massively) and occasionally, even from region to region. If you move to a new area, don’t just assume that your previous policy will port seamlessly. Check it out. Trust me: It’s worth it.Having lived most of my life in the UK and Germany, I have intimate personal experience with moving a watch collection across borders. And the differences are stark. Some things are easier in some territories, and some things are harder, but the three things you should focus on first when looking into insuring your collection (or single watch) is the total value of your collection, how many “declarable” models you will need to put on your policy, and how all of this can affect your remaining contents insurance.So let’s start with the first point. This is relatively simple. Add up the retail value of the watches in your collection. When doing this, make sure you collate invoices and receipts (if possible) into a physical and digital folder. Scan everything, stick it in a PDF and email a copy to yourself rather than keeping it on your hard-drive alone (it stands to reason that if your property gets turned over your laptop may go the same way as your watches).
Several years ago, Panerai published Luminor Submersible 1950 PAM 382, which raised a bronze storm in watch industry. The story between XF and bronze started from Panerai’s PAM 382. Afterwards, XF unveiled PAM 507, PAM 671, Zenith Type 20 Pilot Extra Special, Tudor Black Bay Bronzo, these are all art work of XF that are made of bronze material. So, we can see that XF factory continuously researched bronze and applied this material in their watch-making process, today, they released this IWC Pilot Spitfire bronze watch, it is the first IWC watch that is made of bronze.Actually, it is not hard to make a bronze case, but the difficulty is that bronze case should be oxidized to our expected result at the speed we want, XF has always been researching this, now the oxidized result on this IWC Pilot Spitfire has achieved a perfect condition, which is closest to genuine, compared with the bronze case from small factories, you will find that their oxidized color is uneven and there is even rusty spot.
The case is 40mm in diameter and made of 316L stainless steel, round bezel is very thin, so we can see a very big dial under the sapphire crystal. Whole case is brushed, including four lugs. The face of bezel is also brushed while polished on edge. Like genuine, you can operate the two pushers to start or stop chronograph. Case back is locked by four screws, there are vertical brushing on the center. When open the case back, the inside has beautiful geneva stripes and correct engravings like genuine watch.Dial is blue. There are two small dials at 6 and 12. The subdial at 6 o’clock is displaying small seconds, while the subdial at 12 o’clock is for 30-minute chronograph. The two small dials are sunken on the main blue dial, together with the beveled inner bezel, the whole dial shows a 3D visual effect. Besides, silver Arabic numeral hour markers are also three-dimensional.
First, its size is 40.9mm×12.3mm, which can satisfy your requirement in sense of beauty. It is a little big with such diameter, and it is thinner than other normal wrist watch. Using such different size proportion really can give us special feeling in vision. And such unique style is almost revealed in every design details perfectly. Its case was made of solid 316L stainless steel, which is so delicate and bling in appearance. Combining with the scratch-proof sapphire crystal, it is so perfect collocation that has reflected its skillful craftsmanship fully. And also reflects the extraordinary temperament of wearer at the same time. Its dial uses black color, which can highlight its elegance and nobleness. What’s more, It’s markers are in golden, really a good matching with its black dial. It can be more lived with such decoration. Gold and black as main color in the whole, it reveals the style of gentleman. As we all known, In China, gold color means noble, which is only used for king in ancient age, and most of us still has this feeling now.

I am Susan, thank you for reading my reviews. Water Resistant: 50m Changrong Factory Replica Rolex Datejust 41mm 18K Real Gold with Swiss ETA 2836-2 Movement Replica Rolex Datejust 41mm Two Tone WatchRolex is a top luxury watch brand and it is a dream of every man to own a Rolex watch, especially a golden Rolex. Because a golden Rolex is a symbol of noble status. However, not every one can afford a genuine Rolex watch, let alone a golden one, some people turn to buy second-hand, but most of them are not in good condition, and their gold layering has faded off. So, what is the solution for this case? The best advice I can give you is to buy a good replica. Maybe some people think that replica watches are greatly different from genuines, but nowadays they could be made 100% the same as real watch, you do not need to worry about the quality, a lot of factories have improved their watch-making technology to manufacture 1:1 Swiss replic Rolex. For example, this golden Rolex Datejust watch made by Changrong factory is a perfectly replica golden, with a genuine Swiss ETA 2836 movement, the watch is much superior than any other replica Rolex sold online.Replica Rolex Datejust Yellow Gold 18K The replica Rolex has two big advantages, 18K gold case and genuine Swiss ETA movement. First, the case is made of 316L stainless steel but has thick 18K yellow gold layering, which is almost 5 mils, it is wrapped gold layering, the factory claims that the gold will not fade even after one year of wearing. Second, the movement is a big surprise because few replicas use genuine ETA. The movement is a great match for the replica and makes the watch 100% perfect, you know, the replica will not be perfect if it only has a 18K gold case. With a Swiss ETA 2836 movement, the replica watch can work more accurate and stable.Replica Rolex 41mm Datejust Rolex Pattern Dial Having talked about the biggest features of the replica, let me show its other specification. It is the dial that firstly catches my attention, it is in silver tone and has unique “ROLEX” patterns, I do not know how you guys call these patterns, but they indeed look very special. Hour markers are raised from the dial, they have golden edge and there is one brilliant diamond set in the center of each hour marker. I do not like diamonds decoration on this mens watch, after all it is not a lady watch, it is used by men, why Rolex did not use common hour markers without diamond. Replica Rolex 41mm Datejust Fluted Bezel Fortunately the replica Rolex is equipped with a golden two tone bracelet, not a leather band.
