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.
D-Blue and Black Submariner all belong to top replicas. There are two movement options, Hangzhou 6300 and Shanghai 3135. The size is 44mm and 40mm. In my opinion, if you want a comfortable winding experience, choose 3135 movement, if you have a limited budget, then choose the cheaper 6300.IWC371446, case diameter is 41mm. It uses the most stable Dandong chronograph movement. This Portuguese replica is made by GP, ZF or 3A factory. The version from GP factory is the best.PAM 111, the must-have Panerai watch, because it is in high quality and with a cheap price. The replica is equipped with a Sea-Gull ST3600 manual winding movement, which is very stable.
The subdial below red word “DAYTONA” at 6 o’clock is for displaying small seconds, 30-minute chronograph counter is working at 3 o’clock, 12-hour chronograph counter is set at 9 o’clock. Hour markers and Rolex crown logo at 12 are three-dimensional looking. Hour markers, hour hand and minute hand are applied with Swiss grade blue superlume.Inside case back, the movement is Super Clone 4130, it is the world’s first slim clone 4130 automatic movement with full chronograph. Most previous Rolex Daytona replica watches were equipped with Asian Valjoux 7750 movement with working chronograph. The clone 4130 movement made by AR factory does not have full chronograph. Now Noob factory modified it to the outlook of real Rolex Calibre 4130 and developed its full chronograph function. This is really a great progress. The following I show you photos of other three models.Since the beginning of 2018, AR factory has published a lot of amazing replica Rolex watches, which include Rolex Submariner 116610LN, 116610LV and some Daytonas. These replica Rolex watches have one common big selling point, that’s the 904L stainless steel used on case and bracelet. Yes, AR is the first factory to use 904L stainless steel, now other factories like Noob and VR also followed AR’s pace to use 904L stainless steel on their replica Rolex. Today, I want to introduce a super replica Rolex Daytona watch that features a special green dial. It was produced by AR factory and made of 904L stainless steel, its case has 18K yellow gold coated, case polishing is superior and dial details are very close to genuine, so the replica not only uses top quality watch material, its finish is also in top grade. However, about this Daytona replica watch, there is one place I am not satisfied with, that’s the faux minute and hour chronograph counter. If you know what I mean. This is the common fault among all replica Rolex Daytona watches from AR factory.The Daytona 116508LN replica watch is equipped with a slim chronograph movement, we call it clone Rolex 4130 movement. This is the first slim 4130 chronograph movement cloned in our watch market. It was made by AR, but this factory did not make this movement to be perfect. I mean its functions are not complete. Check the dial, the central second-chronograph hand works for real, but two subdials at 3 and 9 o’clock do not have functions. While in previous Daytona replica watches with Asian Valjoux 7750 movement, the subdial at 3 o’clock is for minute chronograph, the subdial at 9 o’clock is for hour chronograph.
While their sister-company, Tudor has garnered a strong following with their vintage-inspired heritage watches, Rolex is notorious for only moving forward with their designs, and never re-creating (or re-releasing) vintage Rolex inspired watches from the past. However, despite not manufacturing any outright heritage watches, Rolex does implement a few subtle, vintage-inspired design traits into the otherwise very modern watches that they manufacture today.Most obvious among the various vintage design elements is the red line of text on the dial of the new Rolex Sea-Dweller reference 126600. An obvious throwback to Rolex’s early Submariner and Sea-Dweller watches which had their respective names printed in red letters on the surfaces of their matte black dials, the red line of text on the dial of the new Sea-Dweller 126600 is an unmistakably vintage-inspired design element, which Rolex has recycled and reintroduced on an otherwise very modern and technologically-advanced, luxury dive watch.
