One of the hottest and most sought-after releases in recent years was the reference 116500 Daytona in stainless steel with black Cerachrom bezel. With the exception of its bezel, the new Daytona 116500 was virtually identical to almost any other modern, stainless steel Daytona. However, the aesthetic impact of the black Cerachrom bezel is significant, and the presence of a solid black ring around the face of the watch completely changes the overall appearance of the new ref. 116500 Daytona.Additionally, the new black Cerachrom bezel is more than a little reminiscent of the black acrylic bezels that were fitted to several vintage Daytona chronograph references manufactured during the 1960s and 1970s, such as the reference 6241 and the reference 6263. Although the two materials are significantly different in a multitude of different ways, the black Cerachrom bezel on the new 116500 Daytona is very much the contemporary equivalent of the black acrylic bezel that can be found on a number of highly-desirable, vintage Rolex Daytona references.For the most part, Rolex only moves forward with their designs as they continuously work to refine and improve their watches. However, they have been known to occasionally borrow small design elements from some of their early watches, and implement them into the latest incarnations of their ever-evolving timepieces. Sometimes these design elements get re-imagined or modernized to reflect advancements and improvements in available materials and technologies (like the Cerachrom bezel on the Daytona). Other times, like in the instance of the 24-hour hand on the new Explorer II, these vintage-inspired, design traits get pulled right off a page from a 1970s Rolex catalog and get placed on a watch currently in production.
Another tip I picked up was to photograph each of my watches next to my driving license as further proof that these watches have been in your possession. With a good and honest insurer, it shouldn’t be necessary; but when dealing with a significant level of equity, it is worth taking the time to be thorough. The fewer questions you’re forced to endure following a traumatic event like a robbery or fire, the better it is for you.Before you can figure out exactly what this amount will do to your insurance, you need to identify any pieces that must be separately declared (if it is a requirement of that territory). For example, in the UK, anything below £2,000 need not be individually named on a policy, and can either be paid out as part of your general contents insurance (last resort) or as a part of a declared (although not individually) holding of “luxury items”, such as watches and jewelry. Each declarable item will increase your premium, but it is worth being sure those high-value pieces like your Rolex are covered.But what if you have a large collection of watches that individually retail for less than £2,000? For collections like these, the best thing to do is to make it clear to your insurance provider that you have a large (larger than average) parcel of possessions that fall under the luxury goods category (if you don’t make this clear before a claim, eyebrows may be raised). The total value of your collection will then be assessed on top of your regular contents insurance (for things like furniture, appliances, clothing, and books and so forth). If, say, your collection of undeclared luxury goods is of significant value, you will notice a sharp spike in your premium.I have heard of people off-setting this premium by reducing their standard contents insurance. While this can reduce your (suddenly eye-watering) premium, it is a very risky business indeed, as an insurer may take a dim view on you being deliberately under-insured for items within your property. And so the solution? Consider carefully the insurance implications of your next luxury watch purchase. Treat the cost of insuring a luxury watch as a mandatory expense – more so than even having it serviced as regularly as advised. Build it into your budget.Even if you only have one, exceptionally valuable watch, which you plan on wearing 24/7 and thus imagine will never be stolen from your home, accidents do happen. This isn’t intended to be pessimistic, just sensible. And with the peace of mind that the correct cover can provide, your enjoyment of your collection can only increase.
In July, one of my clients sent one watch back to Noob for repairing, he waited almost one and half month for the factory to fix it, I must say that the repairing of Noob is too slow.Both factories have their own advantages, but for beginners, I recommend ARF 116610LV more, because the first feeling it gives to you is more real, the quality and texture of the watch is super. I did not say bad things about Noob, they are a big factory, I have to admit, but if they can not do a better customers service and quality check, I think they will be very difficult to keep the pace with AR factory.AR Submariner 116610LV photos below:This watch is the V2 version of two tone Submariner 116613LN replica from AR factory, it is also the best version currently. Some people will ask, what about if being compared with the one from Noob? Actually I do not know, I have not held two watches in hand and compared them. Maybe in subtle details, Noob makes better, but the replica from AR factory also has their advantages. For example, it is the factory that used 904L stainless steel material on their replica Rolex watches, second, the finish on case and bracelet is much better. Third, AR factory installed an Asia ETA 2824 movement in this replica, compared with the Asia 3135 movement in Noob version, Asia 2824 is more stable and reliable. Fourth, the price is cheaper.
IWC watch is one of my favorite brands, and Big Pilot is best of the best I think. A man who is wearing a IWC Big Pilot watch is very attractive to me. IWC Big Pilot watch is a great choice for normal business meetings, and also not bad for a date as well. Here comes a new factory released full ceramic replica IWC Big Pilot watch for you. Ceramic has become more and more popular material in the watch market nowadays, and many watch manufacturers release new ceramic designs. Because ceramic is not easy to be scratched and also looks very nice in designs.Have a look at the appearance of this replica IWC watch, the grey dial with white markers on it matching the ceramic case wonderfully. 48mm case with a 15.8mm thickness seems too big, but I think this is one of its specialty. Some of my customers would just love watches with big dial like this. The case is one piece mould and fine engineered balck ceramic brushed finish which is 1:1 compares to the original. The dial is covered by a sapphire crystal with Swiss standard double AR glass, this is really first class material for a replica watch. Move to the back, which is made of solid titanium as per original, with detailed top gun engraving on it. The only thing I don’t like this watch may be its bracelet, which is made of premium black nylon strap with insignia single fold over deployant clasp. The material makes it too casual, but this is just as the genuine way.
An Asian clone 2836 or 2813 is also available, and the replica with such clone movement is much cheaper. However, if I were you, I will choose a genuine ETA version, because it works more accurate and the watch will serve you longer time.Two big difference lies in the new Sea-Dweller 126600 and previous models, one is the case diameter, the other is that this one has a cyclops at 3 o’clock. The bezel of the replica 126600 looks more robust and the clicking tooth is more obvious than Submariner. By the way, there is blue superlume applied on our markers and hands. Here are some more details of the replica in the following:Movement: Genuine Swiss ETA 2836, Hacking Feature Case: 316L Stainless Steel, 43mm*14mm, Uni-directional Ceramica Black Bezel Dial: Superlumed Black Dial Crystal: Sapphire Bracelet: Steel with Flip Lock Deployant Clasp Water Resistant: 50M Hi Susan I would like to give some feedback which you can put on your site if you want to:I have received my Rolex submariner and am so pleased with the watch. The detailing is near perfect and the weight is the same as the original. It is a substantial chunk on your wrist and I love it!I have to admit that I doubted the truthfulness of wrist watch spot when a few days went by leading up to Christmas and I had little response after I had made payment.I quickly became angry thinking that I had been conned.This lack of response was soon explained and since that time I have had prompt responses to my emails all the way up to and post delivery of my watch.I am now in the process of ordering my second time piece!Maybe you will mistake this watch as a Submariner when see it at the first glance. I though it was a vintage Submariner made by Rolex in the 50s, it has a very close appearance to Sub 5513 or 1680. However, the watch is Tudor, which is a sub brand of Rolex. Owning a Rolex is the dream of many people, but it is unreachable because most Rolex watches are sold at high prices, the appearance of Tudor makes their dream come true. Now this replica even makes these people easier to get a good Submariner watch at a very low price.If you did not notice the dial, you could even think it is a Submariner watch. The case construction is the same as Rolex Submariner, although a little smaller than the latter in diameter. Black diving-style bezel is engraved with markers, the bezel is uni-directional rotating, the whole watch is brushed, while the two steel crown protectors are polished. The case back is different from Rolex Submariner, it is engraved with “ORIGINAL OYSTER CASE BY ROLEX GENEVA”, which means that this watch is not only made by Rolex, but also uses Rolex Oyster case. So, you can imagine that the quality of Tudor should not be low, in some way it has the same quality as Rolex.Black dial is protected by domed plexi plastic crystal, the dial exactly reveals the inner vintage texture of this replica. There are oval-shaped hour markers except markers at 3,6,9 and 12 o’clock. These markers are all applied yellowish luminous material, central hour hand is Mercedes-Benz style, the second hand is also very similar to Submariner’s. You can see the size of the hands is a bit smaller than Submariner’s. Under the Tudor Shield Logo, there are printings of “TUDOR” and “OYSTER PRINCE”, which is different from “OYSTER PERPETUAL” on other Rolexs. It is printed “SUBMARINER” at 6 o’clock. In a word, the replica Tudor completely uses the vintage Submariner’s dial style.The bracelet is brushed, it has a Tudor Shield Log engraved on the link at the end. Made of solid 316F stainless steel and uses Oyster structure, the bracelet also features a diver extension like Submariner watch. The replica Tudor Submariner is equipped with an Asian clone ETA 2836 movement, which is one of the mostly used fake movements in our market.Conclusion: the watch is a good try for people who want to wear a vintage Rolex Submariner. You may also know better about the rich history of Rolex through this vintage watch. But if you want an authentic Submariner watch in good quality, then choose 116610 LN.Now my blog has accumulated a lot of vintage watches right now, from Rolex, Omega to Panerai brands, every piece of them is loved by blog readers and has gotten a lot of responding here. Today, I am going to introduce another vintage Rolex, which maybe cause another storm and hot discussion, it is the Double Red Sea-Dweller, which is a vintage watch every one wants to own. Sea-Dweller was born in the 1960s and it is based on Submariner, so you will find those Sea-Dweller watches made in old times had a thin case, which are different from modern Sea-Dweller models that own thick case and crystals.The vintage Double Red Sea-Dweller is a replica of 1665, why it is called double red? The dial tells. At 6 o’clock on top of these white printings, there are two lines of red words, “SEA-DWELLER” and “SUBMARINER 2000”, this is the original of its name.
Now what you see is an IWC replica watch with classic black style. It with gold size 41mm. When we see it more carefully, we will find that its design elements are so special. Such as its ring. It uses two half circle to covered the ring, which is liked the shape of sailing ship, so that it has a good connection with the topic of sailing. In addition, its ring splicing blue and white color skillfully. It is really control so well to distribute colors in dial. This unique design can make us enjoy the experience of watch wearing, which is liked experiencing an exciting sailing match happily, and it is easy to read at the same time. It can show the side of mature for men to use gray and black color in dial. The red second hand is the one of attraction, it helps us to have a good view when combined with various colors. Red is so bright that can be nice decoration in black dial. It can get rid of the trouble that we become tired with same color in the whole dial. From the surface which is decorated by sapphire crystal, we can see its beauty clearly. Its case is made of 316 stainless steel, which is one kind of classic material. Undoubtedly, It may be good guarantee in hardness.
If you want one with genuine Swiss ETA movement, please choose from BP factory. If you want a Submariner that looks 99% the same as genuine whether in outlook or inside movement, then buy Noob V8 Submariner with Super Clone 3135. If you are in pursuit of an extreme wearing feeling, then choose J12 version because this factory always does a perfect job in case and bracelet polishing. Today, I will introduce a vintage replica Rolex Submariner 16610LV published by J12, the watch is one of the best sellers in our market. The following article will show how charm the watch is.Replica Rolex Submariner 16610LV Vintage WatchThe case is 40mm in diameter and 13mm thick. Genuine watch has the same thickness. Whole case is brushed except sides, which are polished. The factory uses genuine watch as a sample to build a 1:1 case profile from one forged piece of metal. The bezel is uni-directional rotatable and features a green metal insert, which is not ceramic made. Case back has tooth design, the center is sandblast finished while the edge is polished. Check the pins that connect case and bracelet, they are flawless without damage, I always checked this place on watches I will send to my clients, because some watches from big factories have damaged pins. I carefully checked every place of the watch before posting.Replica Rolex Submariner Vintage 16610LVThe dial has nothing to review except different printings from modern Submariner. Yes, it is the “OYSTER PERPETUAL DATE”. Black dial and the green bezel form a sharp contrast, in my opinion, that’s the charm of vintage 16610LV Submariner, and it will be the one that firstly catches your attention when putting 16610LV and Hulk 116610LV together.Replica Rolex Submariner 16610LV CrownThe bracelet is made of solid 316L stainless steel, it is brushed. Please check the the buckle, it is a design that on vintage Rolex Submariner’s. When you unfold the clasp, you will find the engravings are symmetrical. Inside the case, it is an Asian clone 3135 movement, which is based on a Shanghai automatic movement.Replica Rolex Submariner 16610LV Case Overall, if there is a 10, I will give the watch a 9.5. If the factory has a genuine ETA movement option, the watch will be perfect ten.
But as so often happens, any objections were short-lived. Fairly soon after its arrival, the LV (standing for Lunette Verte, or green bezel) started attracting much more of the right kind of attention, with devotees learning to appreciate the eccentricities. It also had the definite whiff of a future classic, something that set collectors with one eye on future monetary gains to gravitate towards it.As it turned out, they were right. Just seven years after its introduction, the Kermit was withdrawn to make way for the ref. 116610LV. Now housed in the beefed-up Super Case, this new piece added a green dial to match the bezel, leading to it being known colloquially as the Hulk.A short run of an unusual edition of a true industry giant has seen prices for the Kermit far outstrip the equivalent classic black models, and should be set to only get higher with time. Definitely one to consider.This one is a real puzzler. There hasn’t been a black and red bezel GMT-Master (much better known as the ‘Coke’) since 2007. That was when the last reference to offer the option, the ref. 16710, was scrubbed from the lineup. This means that there has never been a Cerachrom example of this archetypal and hugely popular Rolex color scheme, which we originally saw debut on the very first of the GMT-Master II references way back in 1983, the ref. 16760 (nicknamed the ‘Fat Lady’).The red and black had enough of a distinction from the blue and red bezel pieces to warrant its place, and as we all know, the ‘Pepsi’ has been (and still is) a massive seller for the brand.
