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.
The biggest difference between modern AquaTimer and previous AquaTimer watches lies in their bezel design. I more prefer the two color black and yellow bezel of old AquaTimer models. Here, let use be back to the replica we are discussing, it is the latest work from V6 factory, which has expanded their watch business into every Swiss brand. V6 factory published a lot of high quality replica watches in 2016, among them, Omega Spectre is the one that gained a great success. Now this IWC AquaTimer replica is made of 316L stainless steel in case and bezel, it looks very strong and tough. The bezel has grooves so it is easy for the wearer to catch even when their hands get wet. The dial has two levels, it has a great 3D visual effect. Hour markers, hands and diving scales on outer bezel are all applied luminous material.
The outside appearance has already been copied to be 100% the same as genuine, now powerful factories like AR, JF and Noob turned to clone Rolex Caliber and improve their stability. The following replica watch is from N maker, it is a 41mm Datejust in two tone style. Let us see the watch specification first.Movement: Clone Rolex 3235, 28800bph, The Same Construction as Genuine Rolex 3235 CaliberCase: 41mm, 18K Wrapped Rose Gold, Fluted Bezel Crystal: Sapphire Dial: Rose Gold with Lume Hour Markers and Hands Band: Two Tone, 18K Wrapped Rose Gold, Deployant Clasp Water Resistant: 50m With Box: Yes The specification says it is two tone style and has wrapped rose gold coating on bezel and bracelet, but it seems to be in champagne gold, not rose gold. However, the gold tone looks fine to me. The watch is 41mm in diameter, I like such big-size watch, the dial looks large and generous because of 41mm case, long and slender second hand is sweeping the whole champagne gold dial, it works smoothly and convinces you the replica is powered by a high quality automatic movement. Seeing from the case, fluted bezel and crown are all applied 18K wrapped gold, gold coating is thick and will not easily fade unless you scratch it with a hard object. Unlike the bracelet, the case lugs are polished, not brushed, so the watch reflects two types of case processing.The dial features bar-shaped hour markers that filled with white luminous material. These hour markers also have edge in golden color. The date window at 3 o’clock features a correct magnifier, black date font is in the correct thickness in white date background. Now you can see such high quality Rolex replica watch has a tiny laser crown logo in crystal at 6 o’clock.Two tone bracelet is made of 316L stainless steel and has 18K rose gold plated on the three sections of central links. The bracelet is brushed, while the clasp is polished with right and delicate engravings. Because of the thick rose gold coating on case and bracelet, this replica Rolex is sold at an expensive price, please leave your comment if you are interested in buying one.I never saw such a sports watch with gems, this YachtMaster was published by Rolex in 2017 Basel, its reference number is 116695SATS, the gems bezel makes the watch more suitable for women. It is a great idea to prepare such a beautiful gift watch for your wife or some people important in your life, she will love it. In my memory, Rolex used such gems bezel in their GMT Master series, it is the first time to be used on YachtMaster. When wearing such a brilliant watch on the beach, you will absolutely become the focus.
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.
