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.
Second, the shape of the hands, especially the propeller-shaped end of the central second-chronograph hand is made correct.The final thing you concern about is if the replica watch has a full chronograph function. I must say yes. The watch is equipped with the most widely used Asia Valjoux 7750 movement, you can operate the chronograph buttons like you do on a genuine. Thanks to the solid case, Z factory did not make too much modification on the movement, so it could maintain a high stability of the original movement.It is a new arrival, but Z factory did not raise its price, it is sold at much cheaper than other Spitfire watches, so I recommend it if you are a pilot watch fan of IWC.
In Noob 116610LV, the movement is an Asia ETA 2836 automatic, which is fully gold plated, while in ARF 116610LV, the movement is Asia ETA 2824-2 automatic, actually both movements are made in China, the stabality and accuracy are good, can not be compared. While Noob offers a super clone 3135 movement option for this watch, this movement makes the watch have the same time and date adjustment like genuine, I think this is the only advantage of Noob 116610LV, but I do not recommend my clients to buy Noob Submariner with Super Clone 3135 movement, because this movement has a high repair rate.Like genuine watch, AR factory will offer one plastic box for their Rolex including this Submariner 116610LV, while Noob does not have it.Absolutely AR factory does better in quality check. In watch quality check before out of factory, Noob is not that strict like before. Now, many customers in forums like repgeek and replica-watch complained that their Submariners have problems after receiving the package within one week, they complained that the bracelet broke from the point that connects the case, lume coating on bezel markers falls off, etc., these complaints are true, while in all my clients who have bought the Submariner 116610LV from AR factory, no complaint ultill now.I do not know how is the after-sale service of AR factory, but Noob’s is very bad.
