Then there’s the much more subdued fixed stainless bezel of the Explorer II which matches the case and features a 24-hour marked scale. This feature was specifically built for explorers who need to distinguish day from night – think cave explorers or polar explorers in the height of summer when the sun never sets.For decades, the durable and waterproof Oyster case on the Explorer II measured 40mm, but upon its redesign for the 40th anniversary of the collection in 2011, it was enlarged to 42mm. However, while Rolex produces a precious metal version of the Submariner, the Explorer II is exclusively offered in 904L stainless steel, and there have never been any solid gold or two-tone models ever produced. The current Explorer II is only offered on a steel Oyster bracelet with a Oysterlock clasp, but to be honest, when it comes to the Explorer II, collectors are much more concerned with what really makes this watch: the face.The dial of the Explorer II is iconic for a few reasons. The most notable being the colored 24-hour hand which circles the face. First there’s the iconic orange 24-hour hand, originally designed to help polar and cave explorers distinguish night from day, that gained its cult-status from the original “Steve McQueen” reference. Rolex eventually brought back the bright orange hand with much fanfare. Then there’s the red 24-hour hand which graced the dial for decades – it’s distinctly different than the orange hand with a skinnier body and smaller luminous triangle at the tip. The dials with a red 24-hour hand are far less punchy than their orange counterparts, but still make the Explorer II standout from the rest of the Rolex lineup.Then there are the dial colors – available in effortlessly-cool black and the coveted ‘polar’ white. The polar dial is totally cool and clean, the white face outfitted with white lume plots and Mercedes hands outlined in black. The black face on the other hand has a totally different appeal. While it boasts the same features, the darker face really highlights the stainless steel bezel, lume hour plots and lume-filled Mercedes hands (this time in white gold rather than finished black). It’s a punchier look, and the colored 24-hour hand – especially the orange one – shines against the black a little brighter.
Look at the Luminor case that is crafted from solid 316L stainless steel, it has engravings on the front, lugs and crown guard bridge. Round bezel is smoothly polished. The case is engraved by hand, then is filled with black lacquer by V9 watch master.The dial is in metallic dark grey, it is finished with radial brushing. The Florentine lily is printed at 6 o’clock on the dial, with “FIRENZE” below. Like genuine watch, the replica has a sandwiched construction, there are big cutout hour markers, with the Super-Luminova painted on the disc below.Through crystal case back, you can see the movement clearly, it is a super clone P.3000, which is custom made and engraved with Florentine motifs and Florentine lily. These engravings on the movement plates are completed by laser machine, the movement is hand-winding and has double barrels, so like genuine watch, the replica also has 72 hour power reserve.By the way, the replica is fitted with a brown leather band with Florentine lily mark. The watch has been tested to be 50m water resistant by V9 factory.Now it is nearly the end of 2018, I think it is time to make a summary of this year.

The JF V4 Royal Oak 15400 has three dial color options, black, white and blue.Tudor is a sub-brand of Rolex and it is very popular in Swiss watch industry. Tudor has published a lot of classic models that are not only in genuine watch market, but also became one of the mostly replicated watches in fake watch industry. The Black Bay is even a good alternative of Rolex Submariner. In the past, Tudor watches were replicated by a lot of factories, but Z is the only factory that made the highest quality replica Tudor watches, especially the Tudor Bronzo replica made by Z, it was immediately sold out after being released, and was always out of stock. Today, the replica Tudor watch I want to talk is made by another factory, which we call it KR. Maybe it is a sub-factory of Z, who knows? Because since the beginning of 2018, some manufacturers in our market opened their sub-branches. The Tudor Black Bay replica here is more simple and smaller, so the watch will suit most people and a good choice for watch fans who love simpleness and elegance at the most.
Maybe it was rare to have wrist watch that can be fit for both female and man. But now you have opportunity to see this type of wrist watch. Today I felt so excited to recommend a replica which based on the genuine Omega Planet Ocean series. It was really an awesome replica due to it has broken through various of limitation so that it can satisfy the requirement of man and lady. And I believed that anyone may be moved by its perfect appearance and powerful capability because it almost inherited all advantages of the original one.This replica Omega was liked noble among diving wrist watch. Even though people felt it so precious that they were not willing to wear when diving. But it should but a glossy focus that people want to discuss. It was a fire-new fashion trend, and made diving watch become a jewelry art. Now let’s know something about its detail. Firstly, I think you may be attracted by the shinning diamond which was inlaid in the bezel. Yes, it’s the unique characteristic of this replica. How wonderful feeling we have, when we see such glossy brightness on this wrist watch. I have to admit that this replica really with skillful craft. The diamond was inlaid in the bezel steadily which was liked the stars in the sky. Its diameter was 42mm. Through the clear sapphire crystal which with AR coating, we can see that this replica with such big size dial revealed masculine temperament of man, but it can not deny that more ladies are liking big dial as well. Therefore, this replica not only can satisfy the need of female who are looking for a wrist watch with shinning glossiness and big dial, but also can be the best choice for some men who are pursing for a type of wrist watch with diamond.
Looks-wise, the watch that comes the closest to an all-steel model is now the ref. 116509, which is cast in solid 18k white gold and has the price tag to prove it.That means a delve into the archives is the only avenue still open should you want one, and it is the previous generation that is proving the most affordable. The ‘Zenith’ Daytona ref. 16520, powered by the fabled El Primero, is still the gateway into steel Cosmograph Daytona ownership.Of course, the word ‘affordable’ is all relative. Prices start at around the $20,000 mark, which is a hefty slice of anyone’s money. Yet beyond being one of the most handsome and capable models ever made, any Rolex Daytona represents perhaps the surest investments watch collecting has to offer.It’s a tough call, but the starkly austere Explorer might well be the watch that has changed the least (visually) over its 70-year run. That is even for a manufacture that updates aesthetics at the glacial pace that Rolex does. Every reference, from the prototype Pre-Explorer ref. 6150 from 1952 up to the last of the ref. 114270s in 2010, have been simple three handers, with the beautifully legible white on black 3/6/9 dials, housed in a 36mm case.Then along came the ref. 214270, identical in the detailing but the first example to grow beyond the dimensions in 58-years, measuring 39mm. It increased in size for the same reason as the Datejust – fashions demanded it – but unlike that watch, it became the only option available.That is no bad thing. The Explorer is perhaps the last of the true tool watches in the Rolex catalog. There is nothing about any iteration of the watch that is designed to look flashy or draw attention to itself, and a few extra millimeters doesn’t change that. The new Explorer is basically the old Explorer, and whichever you choose will come down to whether your wrist size suits one or the other.Its strength has always been in its simplicity, and it remains one of the best value for money prospects on the pre-owned Rolex market. $5,000-$6,000 is the buy-in point for a well set up example of the ref. 114270 or, if you fancy going the real vintage route, the celebrated ref. 1016 (personal timepiece of James Bond author Ian Fleming) starts at a little over twice that. Tough, elegant and perfectly built, the Explorer has always stayed true to Rolex’s roots.
