Then there’s the much more subdued fixed stainless bezel of the Explorer II which matches the case and features a 24-hour marked scale. This feature was specifically built for explorers who need to distinguish day from night – think cave explorers or polar explorers in the height of summer when the sun never sets.For decades, the durable and waterproof Oyster case on the Explorer II measured 40mm, but upon its redesign for the 40th anniversary of the collection in 2011, it was enlarged to 42mm. However, while Rolex produces a precious metal version of the Submariner, the Explorer II is exclusively offered in 904L stainless steel, and there have never been any solid gold or two-tone models ever produced. The current Explorer II is only offered on a steel Oyster bracelet with a Oysterlock clasp, but to be honest, when it comes to the Explorer II, collectors are much more concerned with what really makes this watch: the face.The dial of the Explorer II is iconic for a few reasons. The most notable being the colored 24-hour hand which circles the face. First there’s the iconic orange 24-hour hand, originally designed to help polar and cave explorers distinguish night from day, that gained its cult-status from the original “Steve McQueen” reference. Rolex eventually brought back the bright orange hand with much fanfare. Then there’s the red 24-hour hand which graced the dial for decades – it’s distinctly different than the orange hand with a skinnier body and smaller luminous triangle at the tip. The dials with a red 24-hour hand are far less punchy than their orange counterparts, but still make the Explorer II standout from the rest of the Rolex lineup.Then there are the dial colors – available in effortlessly-cool black and the coveted ‘polar’ white. The polar dial is totally cool and clean, the white face outfitted with white lume plots and Mercedes hands outlined in black. The black face on the other hand has a totally different appeal. While it boasts the same features, the darker face really highlights the stainless steel bezel, lume hour plots and lume-filled Mercedes hands (this time in white gold rather than finished black). It’s a punchier look, and the colored 24-hour hand – especially the orange one – shines against the black a little brighter.
The case is 44mm in diameter, it is made of Titanium, so the replica watch will feel very lightweight and comfortable to wear. Titanium case has black DLC coating plated, which makes the watch look tough. The bezel is anti-clockwise rotating, there is a lume pearl at 12 o’clock. Bezel markings are deeply engraved, the whole case and bezel are matt finished. About the crown, it is big and has square patterns on, so it is very convenient to rotate the crown to adjust time and date.Upon experience of H factory, ZF improved the dial on this replica Breitling Avenger to ensure it looks 100% the same as original. The metal Breitling logo on the dial is three dimensional, central second hand has a red tip that has an obvious look on this black dial. Date window is easily to be found at 3 o’clock because it has a red frame and white font in black background. Check photos below and compared them with genuine watch, could you please tell me how close the dial is?Black nylon strap perfectly matches DLC black case, each side of the band uses different material. The outside face is made of Nylon, while the inside uses black leather, such design on strap guarantees the greatest wearing comfort. Z factory also offers one pair of free camo leather straps for this replica watch. Here is the watch details:Movement: Swiss ETA 2814-2 Automatic, 28800bph, 25 Jewels Case: 44mm*13mm, DLC Plated Titanium, Uni-directional Rotating Bezel Crystal: Sapphire with AR Coating Dial: Black with Super Green Lume on Hour Markers and Hands Bracelet: Black Nylon Clad Leather Band with Tang Buckle Water Resistant: 50m
The Rolex Submariner has been a part of the Rolex catalog for well over 60 years. As expected, the famed dive watch has undergone plenty of design and mechanical enhancements over the past six decades, including the all-important timing bezel. Read on to discover all the different types of bezels of the Rolex Submariner.When Rolex debuted the Submariner in 1953, the stainless steel dive watch included a rotating bezel marked to 60 minutes to allow divers to track immersion times. The steel bezel turned both ways for simple timing adjusting, the edge of the bezel was knurled for easy gripping underwater, and the insert was fashioned from black aluminum.The printed 60-minute scale on the earlier versions included markings for every 5 minutes, alternating between batons and numerals. By the late 1950s, Rolex started to include hash marks for the first 15 minutes on the bezel followed by 5-minute markings.Around 1969, Rolex introduced the first yellow gold Submariner, the Submariner Date ref. 1680/8. Accordingly, the knurled rotating bezel was fashioned from 18k yellow gold. What’s more, the Rolex Submariner ref. 1680/8 now offered the choice of either a black or blue aluminum bezel insert and matching dial.
Compared with V1, this version has a much slimmer movement. First, the watch is made of better material 904L stainless steel, whether the lugs and clasp, there are correct engravings. There are same correct engravings on the back side of the case back and movement plates. The movement plates have Rolex SEALs, the entire movement is decorated to the lookf of genuine Rolex 4130.The dial is blue, it has special sunray patterns, the texture is high quality. I do not know how did the factory do, but it really looks high quality. All hour markers have been filled with quality Swiss lume material, they will have a strong lume light in the dark conditions.The replica is equipped with a super clone 4130 movement. It is the best quality chronograph movement in replica watch market. Compared with the movement installed in ARF Daytona, this super clone 4130 movement can achieve a full chronograph function. By the way, the replica watch comes with one pair of free short rubber strap. The following are details of the replica.Movement: Super Clone 4130, Decorated Movement Plates and Auto Rotor to Look of Rolex Calibre 4130 Case: 40mm*12.5mm, Solid 904L Stainless Steel Bezel: Black Ceramic Crystal: Sapphire with Tiny Rolex Crown Logo at 6 o’clock Dial: Blue with Working Subdials, Blue Superlume on Markers and Handsn Bracelet: Top Quality Black Rubber with Deployant Clasp Water Resistant: 30m Daytona and Submariner are two models that have been mostly replicated in recent months. Both Noob and AR factories have brought us a lot of amazing replicas during this period, I can not share all of them with you here, so I chose some representative models to review. Today, I will introduce another novelty AR factory has brought to us, it is a Daytona replica watch, which is in full yellow gold. This is the latest V2 edition, AR updated its bezel, dial and bracelet on basis of V1. There are several selling points on this replica watch, please read the following article.First, the watch is fully made of 904L stainless steel, while on the surface of case and bracelet, there is a thick layer of 18K yellow gold, which is measured to be 5 mils thick. This is one of the selling points of the replica. Based on V1, this time AR factory made improvement on the case engraving and bezel engraved numerals. The black color of the tachymeter scales on the bezel is closer to genuine. About engraving, check the back side of each lug, it has correct symbol engraving like genuine watch case.Replica Rolex Daytona 116518LN The second selling point, it is the movement. Actually I did not recommend AR Factory Daytona before, because they do not have a full chronograph function, the subdials at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock have no function, only the second-chronograph hand on the center is working. However, when I think back, although the replica does not have a full chronograph function, its movement may be more reliable. Some features are sacrificed, this makes the movement to be slimmer and more stable. We know Noob also makes this Daytona with full chronograph function, all subdials are working like genuine, but I do not think the movement of Noob Daytona is more reliable than that of ARF Daytona. Besides, the ARF Daytona is sold at a much cheaper price.
The replica Rolex Explorer II features a white dial, there is also a black dial version. White and black match really well, like this 216570 replica, on white dial, the hour markers and hands all have black edge, which has a high contrast with the white dial background. The orange GMT hand echoes with the orange printing “EXPLORER II”, looks very obvious and eye-catching. Hour markers and hands are applied super lume material, so the dial will have a strong lume effect in the dark, which is very convenient for you to read the time.For me, who pursue perfection, I focus its texture such as weight more than the details. When I first hold the replica on hand, I feel a little heavy, it gives me a big surprise because a lot of replica watches have a very light weight, but this one is heavy, this absolutely makes me believe that the replica is made of high-level solid steel material, actually it is, the 316L stainless steel is currently the best watch material. With screw-down crown and case back is perfectly sealed, the replica watch is tested to be 50m waterproof by Noob factory workers.Replica Rolex 36mm Datejust 116233 Champagne Gold Watch ReviewI did not give too many reviews on ladies watches, all replicas reviewed here are for men, they look strong and most of them are particularly made for special purpose. Some readers here asked me whether there is good quality replica watches for ladies, maybe they want to buy one for their girlfriend or wife. Actually there are a lot of good ladies watches in our market, such as Cartier, Chopard, etc., Rolex also has their ladies collection, the 36mm and 28mm Datejust or Day Date are all made for ladies. Here I am going to introduce one replica watch, it is a champagne gold Datejust, in 36mm, which is a medium size and will fit the wrist of most women. The two tone is a very popular style, and the diamonds on dial add more luxury feeling to this gold replica.The watch has a steel and champagne gold color, fluted bezel is champagne gold plated, like the three middle links of the bracelet. The dial is the place that perfectly shows the feminity of the Datejust watch, besides its champagne gold color, the diamond hour markers are also the most common decoration which you could find on a lot of ladies watches. The bracelet contains five sections of links, the middle three links are golden, which are in line with the gold tone of bezel and dial. There are two golden versions for this replica, one is gold-plated, the other is 18k wrapped gold version, absolutely the latter is the best, but its price is also very high.Crystal is sapphire, which is highly resistant, the magnifier on the crystal is anti-reflective, through the magnifier, the date is clearly readable – black date font on a white background. The replica is made by BP factory, the 2824 movement inside is an Asian clone one, not genuine, we also call it Sea-Gull 2824, because it is modified from a Sea-Gull automatic movement. Look at the golden crown buckle, it fastens the clasp tightly. Clasp engravings are all correct, they are completed by laser.
With such tempting appearance, it was impossible to be weak in movemeny. This replica equipped with Nickel Plated Miyota 8205 Automatic Movement, which can be shock resistant since its high beat was 21600bph, and it would be more stable and accurate in travel time. When turn back this replica, you also can appreciate the amazing view of movement through its transparent case back. It is not exaggeration to say, this replica was a wrist watch with powerful capability and the most creative style. It was so cool for man due to its sport and masculine taste. And it also so elegant for lady since it was delicate and luxurious.
Those bar-shaped hour markers, hour and minute hands are applied with Swiss lume material, the green lume light emiting from the dial will be strong and long lasting. Look carefully at the hour and minute hands, they are not flat, both have several cutting faces, now almost all high quality 1:1 Swiss replica Rolex watches from big factories like Noob and ARF will focus on such details, this is also one of the reason why their replicas are sold at higher prices than others.Whether in material or finish, the bracelet of the replica watch has the same quality level as genuine Rolex watch. Especially the finish, it look much better than Noob’s Rolex. Check the gap between each link, there is no difference with genuine. The two ends of bracelet are also tightly connected with the case, which will not be easily broken. The engravings on clasp look clearer and neater than before.The most important is the movement, which is our most famous Asia ETA 2824-2 automatic, AR factory did not use the clone 3235 this time. This is not a pity, on the other hand, the replica with Asia ETA 2824-2 has been tested to be more accurate and reliable than the replica with clone 3235. There are a lot of photos shared below.Oyster Perpetual 39mm is another entry-level series for men Rolex published, together with Air King, they are the most affordable Rolex watches. With basic hours, minutes and seconds functions, Oyster Perpetual can work very stably and accurately, it will also have a very low repairing rate, even none. Today, I will show you five different Oyster Perpetual 39mm watches, their reference number is 114300, each features a different dial color, which includes white, blue, purple, grey and black. In our market, J12 started to make the replicas of Oyster Perpetual 114300 in 2016, the replicas are made of 316L stainless steel, at the end of 2017, J12 opened another sub-branch named AR, this new factory specilized in manufacturing super quality replica Rolex watches that are made of 904L stainless steel, so AR factory and Noob form a strong competitive relationship in replicating Rolex field.
