The Rolex Submariner has been a part of the Rolex catalog for well over 60 years. As expected, the famed dive watch has undergone plenty of design and mechanical enhancements over the past six decades, including the all-important timing bezel. Read on to discover all the different types of bezels of the Rolex Submariner.When Rolex debuted the Submariner in 1953, the stainless steel dive watch included a rotating bezel marked to 60 minutes to allow divers to track immersion times. The steel bezel turned both ways for simple timing adjusting, the edge of the bezel was knurled for easy gripping underwater, and the insert was fashioned from black aluminum.The printed 60-minute scale on the earlier versions included markings for every 5 minutes, alternating between batons and numerals. By the late 1950s, Rolex started to include hash marks for the first 15 minutes on the bezel followed by 5-minute markings.Around 1969, Rolex introduced the first yellow gold Submariner, the Submariner Date ref. 1680/8. Accordingly, the knurled rotating bezel was fashioned from 18k yellow gold. What’s more, the Rolex Submariner ref. 1680/8 now offered the choice of either a black or blue aluminum bezel insert and matching dial.
In recent days, AR factory published a lot of Rolex Daytona replica watches that are made of genuine 904L stainless steel, these Daytona replica watches are best of the best in our market, however, these Daytonas have one fatal flaw, that is the non-working minute and hour chronograph. So, although ARF Daytona replica watches are made of the best material, they are still not perfect for watch fans who require full functional chronograph. Today, the Daytona replica watch that is going to be discussed in this article is an old model published last year, by J12 factory. Although the watch is made with 316L stainless steel and equipped with an Asian Valjoux 7750 movement, it works accurate, you know, high stability is very important for a chronograph watch. Nowadays, replica watches from big factories like Noob, J12, BP and ZF could be made 99% the same as genuines in outlook, only the movement is the biggest flaw, so to make the fake movement look closer to genuine caliber, these factories are spending a lot of time and effort in modifying the basic movement to make it look real, everyone knows too much modification on movement will affect its stability, so, in my opinion, these new Super Copy 3135 used on Submariner and clone 4130 on latest ARF Daytona are not as good as you think. However, this yellow gold Daytona uses the old Asian Valjoux 7750 movement, whose accuracy and stability have been tested for years by a lot of chronograph replica watches, so, this Daytona I am about to post is very rare and really good, you will never regret after purchase.
With such tempting appearance, it was impossible to be weak in movemeny. This replica equipped with Nickel Plated Miyota 8205 Automatic Movement, which can be shock resistant since its high beat was 21600bph, and it would be more stable and accurate in travel time. When turn back this replica, you also can appreciate the amazing view of movement through its transparent case back. It is not exaggeration to say, this replica was a wrist watch with powerful capability and the most creative style. It was so cool for man due to its sport and masculine taste. And it also so elegant for lady since it was delicate and luxurious.
When you got the watch on hand, you can feel its high quality texture, it is also a little heavy. My wirst is 16.5mm, I can wear a 38mm watch, the 47mm SevenFriday also suits me very well, so is this Omega. The crystal is very clear.The crown is easy for you to distinguish whether this Omega replica watch is made by a big factory or a small factory. The base face of the crown is brushed, while the Omega Logo above is polished, besides, the side face around the crown is polished, the whole craftmanship of the crown is in a high level. Although genuine watch is better, it is really hard for a factory to achieve such a high replicating grade.The hands of this Omega watch have several colors alternatives, the most usual are silver and blue, there are also unique black and yellow bumblebee color as well as green. The hand uses drawing finishing, so do those hour markers. The factory did not uses baked blue design on the hand, because this Omega Aqua Terra 150M was an old model published a long time ago, and the factory was not attempted to release the future upgraded version, so, if you are in pursuit of perfection, I suggest you choose silver hand model.The bracelet is very good, it gives a high quality texture feeling, the gap between links is tight, not too loose, the drawing finishing on the bracelet is very delicate. The Omega Logo on the clasp is deeply engraved, which gives a strong three-dimensional feeling. When you need to adjust the length of the bracelet, you have to lose the screws on each side, and then take the pin out.
First of all, the case size is 40.9*12.3mm which is almost as the same the per original, not only because it is made out from a 1:1 case but also because the team conquer so many difficulties to develop a replica A79350 movement. Some editions are not able to do the same size case as original edition is because it is limited by the movement inside of it, some factories are not able to copy the original movement. Then let’s move to the dial, the craftsmanship and fine details are just the same as original. IWC’s logo is very clear, and the character size is the same as original, there is no difference by looking at it. The outside markers for chronograph second function is also copied greatly. The blue long needle is for showing chronograph second, and sub-dial at 12:00 position shows chronograph minute. Sub-dial at 6:00 position together with two hands in the middle to show the time. Time Markers are numeral. Look into carefully, even the axis to hold those three hands are done as well as per original, perfectly in details! Both V6 edition and original’s front glass are made of sapphire crystal, this is a easy job for ZF to follow. Look at the case side, no matter the polish or matt work, they are exactly the same as the genuine. On the crown and the buttons for adjust functions, they are looking the same in shape and engraving logo on it, but V6 edition’s is painted with blue coating which is for protecting them from the scratch. For the strap, the original one is using crocodile leather, V6 edition’s standard strap is real cow leather but Z factory also offer crocodile leather with extra pay.

The Chronomat B01 is a popular pilot series of Breitling and has always been a hot model that is cloned in our watch market.

Today, I want to show you a Breitling Chronomat B01 AB0110 watch that did not have good replicas before, now this watch was replicated by G factory, which was also called GF, finally has its top replica, with every detail completely improved upon previous editions that were manufactured by other small factories.

It has a thickness of 16.5mm. With such a solid stainless steel case and bracelet, the first feeling this replica watch gives you is heavy, but I love this feeling. Do you want to buy a watch that has a light weight? I do not. The heavy texture makes rest assured. Whole case is polished, bezel is uni-directional rotating and has studs, the engravings on the bezel are deep and wide, which are in matt finished. The lume pearl at 12 o’clock on the bezel is full and round, it has the same lume color as the markers and hands on the dial.Black dial seems to be a bit crowded, hour markers and hands have luminous material coated, Breitling Chronomat B01 AB0110 is a chrono watch, so there are three subdials, the subdial at 9:00 is for small seconds display, 30-minute chronograph counter is at 3 o’clock, the 12-hour chronograph counter is positioned at 6 o’clock. On the center of the dial, there is a big square with obvious vertical patterns, I do not like this patterned square on the dial. A black date window is set at 4:30, which features white font. On the crystal, there is a sticker, you can read “GF” and “SAPPHIRE” from it. Like genuine watch, the sapphire crystal on the replica also has AR coating.
On the dial at 12 o’clock, there is a FA Jones signaure in black, a small hand is showing current seconds on subdial at 6 o’clock. Central hour and minute hands are classic Breguet hands, which add a little retro flavor to the watch. Printed Arabic hour markers are in blue.Look at the manual winding movement through crystal back, each movement plate is carefully crafted, from polishing to chamfering, each detail is uncompromised.The leather band varies from brown, blue and black on different model. Please tell me which one you like: rose gold case with brown leather strap, blue hour markers with blue leather band or black hour markers with black leather strap.
