The chemical composition of synthetic green sapphire includes copper and aluminum oxide, with the copper being the element that is ultimately responsible for its signature green hue. The process of synthetic sapphire production is an expensive and exacting one; however, the additional obstacles that accompany the addition of copper – and the precision required to achieve the right amount of green tint without compromising the strength or clarity of the crystal are likely responsible for its exclusive use on the Rolex Milgauss line of watches.When synthetic sapphire is manufactured, the material has to “grow” over the course of a period of several weeks. Particles attract to one another, forming layers that fuse together to create a dense and ultra-hard substance. The end result of production is a “boule” – a solid piece of synthetic sapphire shaped like a chunky cylinder, which is then cut and shaped to its necessary dimensions.Due to the high costs of production, most watch crystal manufacturers cut their synthetic sapphire boules in a perpendicular fashion, as to maximize the number of crystals that can be created from a single boule. Although this is entirely unconfirmed, it is rumored that Rolex cuts the boule along a diagonal axis to maximize the clarity and strength of the finished crystal. In addition to complicating the cutting and shaping process itself, cutting the boule along a diagonal axis significantly increases the amount of waste, which further adds cost to an already expensive manufacturing process.Despite not making an appearance until just over ten years ago, the green sapphire crystal has quickly become one of the defining characteristics of the Milgauss line. Its pale green tint possesses no functional advantages over a traditional, clear/uncolored synthetic sapphire crystal; however, the green crystal that is exclusively fitted to the Rolex Milgauss 116400GV is one of the primary reasons that individuals seek out this particular reference. The green crystal is something entirely unique to the Milgauss collection and is not something that is found on any other Rolex watch, past or present.
VR Factory offers two movement options, one is Sea-Gull 2824, the other is genuine ETA. The following photos show you two Submariner, one is with black dial and black ceramic bezel, the other is with blue dial and blue ceramic bezel.BL Factory Replica Rolex Daytona 116520LV – Green Lizard in the Rain Forest Replica Rolex Daytona 116520LV, has Rolex ever released this Daytona watch? I searched on Google and found all result pages saying this is a replica. So, I think that Rolex did not make this watch at all, it only exists in replica watch world, just like Daytona II and Sea-Dweller D-Green, I do not know why our watch factories made these replicas whose genuine models do not exist. Whatever, they have rich imagination. Let’s back to this Daytona replica watch, we call it a green lizard because the watch features a green ceramic bezel and green subdials on the white dial. The replica Rolex Daytona is made by BL, which is a very small factory in our market, now they made this Daytona that is unknown in genuine watch field, I think they have some creativity. Maybe next time they will bring us another unexpected surprise.Replica Rolex Daytona Green Replica Rolex Daytona Green Ceramic Bezel Why did BL factory name this Daytona 116520LV? I think they refer to the name of another Rolex watch, that is Submariner 116610LV, which also has a green ceramic bezel. This greey Daytona has a 40mm case that is measured to be 15mm in thickness, it is made of 316L stainless steel, not 904L stainless steel. I just posted the watch review on my blog and has not sold one, so if the watch has a good response from the market, maybe BL factory will upgrade the case steel material to 904L. Look at the photos, the case has a brushed face alternated with polishing. You can not operate the chronograph buttons unless they are unscrewed. Unfortunately, the back side of the lugs does not have engravings, while each genuine Rolex watch has, now you can see this tiny feature on the latest Daytona replica watches from Noob factory. Replica Rolex 116520LV Left Case Replica Rolex Daytona Crown and Chronograph ButtonsThe dial is white, three white subdials have green circles with silver white markers. The three small dials work accurately, they are small seconds hand at 6 o’clock, 30-minute chronograph counter at 3 o’clock and 12-hour chronograph counter at 9 o’clock. I think it will be more popular if the watch has a full green main dial with three silver subdials. Like other Daytona replica watches, this 116520LV also has luminous material being applied on hour markers, hour and minute hands.Replica Rolex 116520LV Case Back The bracelet is made of 316L stainless steel, it consists of three sections of links, the middle links are polished, which are contrasting with the brushed links at both sides. With a small screw driver, you can remove or install the links by yourself, it is very simple, just like you do it on a genuine watch. By the way, the replica watch is equipped with an Asia clone 4130 movement, which is based on a Chinese working chronograph movement.
The case and bracelet has a better finish than that of Noob, I can say that no other watch companies in our market have such a good case finish like AR factory does on their replica watches. The case is made with 904L stainless steel, with 18K yellow gold coating that is measured to be 5 mils thick. This replica is the latest V2 edition, it is the newest edition, there are still no V8 or V9 editions, about Daytona, Noob factory also has not published the V8 or V9, so, please do not be cheated by other websites that claim to be Noob factory.Replica Rolex Daytona 116508 Yellow Gold Case Replica Rolex Daytona Yellow Gold Chronograph ButtonsThis enhanced V2 edition has bezel being updated, the thickness of bezel engravings is closer to that of genuine Daytona. If you have ever bought the V1 edition of ARF Daytona, you can compare them. Each corner of the case is finished smoothly so that you will not have any scratch feeling when wearing the watch. Like Noob Daytona, now ARF also engraves these secret symbols on the back of each lug.Replica Rolex Daytona 116508 Case BackOn this Daytona, the dial has black and white options. The dial is also improved on the V2 edition. Especially the minute scales, their thickness is corrected and closer to that of genuine. The engravings on inner bezel are more clear and clean, the spacing between each “ROLEX” word is correct. Overall, the dial completion is so perfect besides its fault minute-chronograph counter and hour-chronograph counter, the hands on these two subdials are fixed, they do not have function. However, this is not a big deal, I do not care about the chronograph when I wear a Daytona, besides, if you operate the chronograph too often on a Noob Daytona, it will have technical issues.Replica Rolex Daytona Yellow Gold Bracelet Replica Rolex Daytona 116508 Clasp About this V2 Edition Rolex Daytona from AR factory, if the full mark is 10, I give this watch 9.5. Hope AR factory can fix the chrono issue while still maintaining the stability of the movement.AR Factory Replica Rolex Sea-Dweller 43mm 126603 Two Tone 904L Stainless Steel Asia 2824Replica Rolex Sea-Dweller 43mm Two ToneBlack is classic, but there are some golden and two tone models existed in Submariner collection, however, I still have not seen one golden Rolex Sea-Dweller before until I saw this one which Rolex published in 2019 Basel. It is the latest Rolex Sea-Dweller watch in 43mm diameter, with reference 126603. What attract me on this watch is its two tone style, which Rolex has seldom used on Sea-Dweller before.
After reading this article about top five Omega watches, are you interested in purchasing one of them? Or do you have a top five list in your mind?In December, there are a lot of Omega replica watches published in our market, they include Seamaster Commander 007 from UR factory, Seamaster 300m Blue from VS, Planet Ocean Ceramic from VS. These watches are all the latest models in 2018. VS factory mainly produced Panerai replicas in the past, but now they also make some good quality replica Omega watches, maybe they have tasted the sweetness from making the Omega Spectre 007 replica, you know, this watch created a high sales record in 2016. Now, a lot of Omega watches made by VS factory have ranked a high position in sales of replica watches, including this Planet Ocean Deep Black ceramic watch. This Deep Black Planet Ocean is a full ceramic watch, I never saw Omega used ceramic case on their Planet Ocean series, maybe this is the first time. this full ceramic Planet Ocean replica watch is greatly different from other Omega watches.
