The ref. 16710 is outfitted with a standard 40mm Oyster case with water-resistance up to 100 meters and a protective sapphire crystal over the dial. The bezel is equipped with an aluminum insert in either all-black, red and blue, or red and black. Depending on the year of production, the watch is also available on the secondary market with cases that have either lug holes or no lug holes, and the luminous material on the dial will vary, as Rolex made the switch from Tritium to LumiNova during the production of the reference 16710 GMT-Master II.With the release of the ref. 116710 came a brand new case design that includes the upgrade to a triple-sealed Triplock screw-down crown, a new bezel mounting system that operates on 24 clicks instead of 120, a tougher “Cerachrom” bezel insert crafted from a scratchproof ceramic material, and a “Maxi” dial topped with larger hour markers and wider hands. The 40mm case also received a larger crown guard and wider lugs, earning it the nickname the “Super Case” among collections due to its thicker and more aggressive overall appearance.The ref. 16710 is equipped with the self-winding Rolex Caliber 3185 perpetual movement, which includes a Quickset function for easy adjustment of the date mechanism, hacking, an independent 24-hour hand, and a 48-hour power reserve. However, near the very end of production of the ref. 16710, Rolex switched movements, and later-era examples of the reference 16710 were equipped with the Caliber 3186 movement. The Caliber 3186 has the same specifications as the Caliber 3185 but is now equipped with Rolex’s newer paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring and a smoother operating jump-hour hand. With that in mind, all reference 116710 GMT-Master II watches run solely on the Caliber 3186.
The most important is its bezel, which has the most accurate Ceramic Bezel Range, its bezel markers are all engraved and have the same depth. About the bezel tooth, when you are rotating the bezel, you will find they are easy to grasp and operate.People always said the dial is easily used to spot fakes, yes that’s right, but for this replica Rolex, it is the most accurate green dial I have seen on all Submariner 116610LV replicas, the thickness of printing, date font, they are completed perfectly, especially the dial lume, it is superlume blue, very strong and beautiful at night. The pearl on the bezel has the same lume on dot hour markers and hands. Finally, the Rolex Submariner 116610 LV replica uses an Asian ETA 2813 movement, which is 21 jeweled, this is the only difference between it and other higher end replica Rolex Submariner 116610 LV watches that are sold over $400 US Dollars.Specification of Rolex 116610 LV Green Submariner Replica Watch Movement: Asian ETA 2813 Automatic Movement, 21 Jewels Case: 40.5mm*13mm, Solid 316F stainless steel Dial: Green, Blue Lume on Hour Markers and Hands Crystal: Sapphire, AR Coating on Cyclop Band: Brushed Stainless Steel Oyster Bracelet with Rolesor Clasp Back: Solid case back with Hollogram Bezel: Green Ceramic with Blue Lume Bezel Pearl, Uni-directional Rotating, inner bezel has ROLEX on rehaut.

So, next I am going to make a comparison between the replica and genuine watch.Having seen the pictures above, do you recognize which watch is genuine, and which one is the replica? Here, first the genuine has two different green colors on dial and bezel, Noob V5 replica Submariner has the same green color on bezel and dial. Second, the front crystal glass of the replica outwards too much, however, the genuine crystal is much lower.Let’s check the crown logo printing on the dial. The color of crown logo is a little darker than that of Noob V5, genuine crown looks more refined with thinner “matchstick”. The inner bezel engraving is also different.The lettering at 6 is almost the same. Some people might say that the replica has thinner font “1000ft=300m”.The comparison of bezel tooth. The upper is genuine, below is replica.The small crown on the buckle, honestly there is almost no difference. Take a closer look, the genuine has more textured crown and refined clasp engraving. The color of clasp engraving is darker on genuine.The engraving on the genuine is more clear and refined, the letters ROLEXS.A. on the replica are fuzzy.The date font looks the same, can’t find any defect on the replica.The biggest news at the beginning of October is that Noob has published their V10 Submariner, including 116610LN and 116610LV, two models are the most popular Submariner in our market. Upon V9, Noob updated a lot on this new V10 edition. I did not realize that Noob will publish the V10 edition so fast, I thought they will publish it in next years.
About the movement, ZF claimed that it is a clone IWC 89361, actually it is modified from a Chinese chronograph movement, we call it Asia Valjoux 7750, whatever behind the solid case back, the movement can completely achieve all functions of genuine watch. Besides, the stability of this type of Asia Valjoux 7750 has been tested for more than 10 years, it is trustworthy.Watch band looks nylon on the outside, but it is actually made of calf leather, you can see it on the back side. The nylon face outside can prevent rain and water drops when washing your hands, while the genuine leather that touches your skin will bring you a great wearing comfort. So such type of band has multiple purposes. The buckle on the band is crafted very well and has a good brushing finish.The review is done, let’s appreciate their acutal photos below.
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. I know what you are really care about when buying a replica watch, you guys all want your replica to look closest to the genuine, so, today, I will publish an article about the top ten best-selling replica watches in 2018, they are also the best replica watches made in our market. This article will also be an ultimate guide for you to find the replica watch that looks closest to genuine. Let’s begin.1 – Noob V9 Edition Rolex Submariner 116610LN Rolex is the best-selling watch around the world, it is also the truth in replica watch field. Noob factory published V9 edition in 2018, which means this is the ninth time Noob has made improvement on this Submariner watch. Now V9 Submariner 1166710LN is made of genuine 904L stainless steel in case and bracelet, the bezel engravings are closer to genuine in color and thickness, V9 Submariner 116610LN has two movement options, Asia ETA 2836 and Super Clone 3135. V9 Rolex Submariner 116610LN from Noob ranks first in this top ten list.Audemars Piguet is a famous sports watch brand from Switzerland. Royal Oak is their iconic series and is well-known among watch fans due to its octagon-shaped bezel. Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15400 is the second best seller, it is the V4 edition from JF. 15400 not only has a top quality case finish, but it is also equipped with a super clone 3120 movement that looks closest to genuine AP Cal. 3120. 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.
The green-tinted sapphire crystal fitted to the reference 116400GV Milgauss has quickly become one of the defining characteristics of Rolex’s anti-magnetic line of watches. The Rolex Milgauss was first introduced in 1956; however, it was not until 2007 that it received its now-signature, green sapphire crystal – an exclusive feature that was originally introduced as a way for Rolex to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their Milgauss line.No other watch in Rolex’s current catalog is fitted with a green-tinted (or any other color) sapphire crystal. However, at the present time, all Milgauss watches that are currently in production leave the factory with green sapphire crystals. Rather than simply being a layer or coating, the light green tint is present throughout the entire material of the crystal, and will not fade or discolor after prolonged wear and use.Rolex claims that it took them many years of research and development to master and perfect the secret procedure of manufacturing their green-tinted sapphire crystals and that the actual process of producing the crystals takes multiple weeks. What is most interesting is that despite a usual eagerness to patent their various in-house technologies, Rolex claims that the green sapphire crystal in the Milgauss is “not patented, as it is so difficult to make that no one else would even venture to try.”Rolex will never reveal their exact formulas and secrets about how they manufacture the green-tinted sapphire crystals fitted to the Milgauss; however, we do know some general information about green-colored synthetic sapphire and the production of sapphire watch crystals as a whole.There are a number of different ways to produce synthetic sapphire, all of which fall into the following general methods of production: melt growth, solution growth, and high-temperature/high-pressure growth. It is hypothesized that Rolex uses a hydrothermal method of production for its synthetic sapphire crystals, which is slow, expensive, and uses heat and pressure to imitate the conditions present deep inside the earth that is responsible for the production of naturally-occurring crystalline gemstones.
There are totally four watches of IW503502, three of them are in white stainless steel, the other one has a rose gold case. I will take the stainless steel model with black leather strap for example. The case is made of solid 316L stainless steel, which is measured to be 44mm in diameter, case thickness is 14mm. Round case and thin bezel make the dial look bigger, this is the classic case design of most dress watches. As one of the most popular dress watches, IWC Portuguese has a simple case and elegant dial design. The front face of the lugs are polished, both sided faces of the case are brushed, the arc of the lugs is improved, it is closer to genuine. Case back is see-through sapphire crystal.
