By the way, this ultimate version has a higher price than older version, but if you buy the stainless steel bracelet edition, we can send you one nato band for free.Now once in a while, there will be a great clone movement appeared in our watch market. For example, Super Copy 3135 in Rolex, 3235, HUB4100, etc. While this replica Omega is equipped with 9300, which is cloned by OM factory and uses new breakthrough watchmaking technology. All Omega chronograph replica watches made before with 9300 did not have full chronograph function, which means hour and minute chronograph hand on subdial at 3:00 do not work. However, with several modification on previous 9300 version by OM factory, now the movement on this replica Omega De Ville has fully working chronograph. This is the biggest selling point of the replica. Let’s look at dial first, there are two subdials, one is for small seconds display at 9:00, the other at 3:00 shows 60-minute and 12-hour chronograph. OM factory spent almost one year to research this movement, finally made it to be a 1:1 clone.
Today, I will take Submariner 116610LV for an example, and picked up two best replicas to make a comparison review, hope you can learn something that will help you to make decision when need to buy one. About two best replicas of Submariner 116610LV, one is made by Noob, its latest version is V9, the other is made by AR factory, the latest version is V2. In their 116610LV, both Noob and AR can install Asia clone 3135 and Asia clone ETA movement in it, today, I will choose the model with Asia clone ETA movement to make this comparison.I got both watches before, and I think AR makes a better case. When I first got the ARF 116610LV on hand, I loved it, simply speaking, it gives me a genuine feeling. You know, I am not a watch expert and I will not make a very detailed and close comparsion between a replica and genuine, so the first feeling a replica watch gives me is very important. Although both Noob and AR factory make Green Submariner 116610LV with 904L stainless steel, and the case thickness is also the same, which is 13mm, but the case finish of AR is better than Noob, I also feel more comfortable when wearing the ARF 116610LV.The bezel of ARF 116610LV is better. First, both Noob and AR factory use green ceramic insert on the bezel, the green color used by both factory is very close to that of genuine watch. However, the polishing of the bezel is better on AR factory, and there is no gap between the bezel and case, on some V9 models Noob factory published, there is tiny gap existing, hope they can improve this flaw next time. Finally, the luminous coating on bezel markers has a platinum color tone like genuine on both Noob and ARF.Both Noob and ARF have their own advantages on the green dial. The white printings on Noob are more accurate than ARF, after all Noob has upgraded this replica to V9 edition, every time when they upgraded this watch, the dial printings could be improved. About the date window, AR has a more neat date font, when you first see it, you will choose AR, however, if you carefully with genuine, Noob has a correct date font. At last, about the hands, Noob makes them with iron, and the iron sheet is very thin, while AR makes them with stainless steel, so, whether in material or finish, the hands of AR are better than Noob.Both Noob and AR factories make dial lume correct.On the ARF V2 Edition 116610LV, the bracelet finish has been completed to be perfect, it can be even exchanged with genuine watch. Although being made with 904L stainless steel both in Noob and ARF, but Noob can not achieve such a high quality level in bracelet finish. On every piece of 116610LV Submariner AR factory has published, the bracelet fits case perfectly and no gap, but the gap between case and bracelet may exist on some pieces of Noob 116610LV.
A lot of people – even seasoned collectors – can find themselves confused when trying to distinguish between original and authentic watches. The trick? Stop thinking of the words as synonymous. In this guide, you’ll learn about the big differences between these two categories of luxury watches and how it can help you be a more educated shopper and collector.An authentic watch is undisputed in origin, and not a replica or copy. This means that in order for something to be authentic, it has to be 100% real. Authentic watches are genuine pieces from brands – think of the big players like Rolex, Tudor, Omega, Patek Philippe and more.We use the word authentic in the industry to distinguish between genuine timepieces and fakes that are widely copied and sold. When a dealer gets their hands on a watch, the first thing they are going to do is check the authenticity of the watch; and as a buyer, you should be doing the same. As a buyer, the first step in guaranteeing you get an authentic watch is by always buying directly from the brand or a trusted and reputable dealer who can ensure that the watch is authentic.But how can you tell whether a watch is authentic? Well, we’ve created some great guides to help educate buyers and collectors – both on what’s real, and how to spot inauthentic details. Head over here to check out our official guide on the Top Ways To Spot A Fake Rolex.To be an original watch, the timepiece has to be an authentic watch. Because when you see a watch listed as original, it means that it is both a genuine timepiece from that brand, and one that has not had any later-era updates or alterations since it was manufactured and originally sold.Original watches are:Authentic Have not had parts replaced with later-era equivalents or been modified/altered in any way Sometimes in the industry, we also refer to original watches as ‘honest’ watches. And when we look at pre-owned timepieces – especially vintage watches, we often look for originality. This means we look for things like correct factory-installed parts, whether they’re scratched, chipped or faded.We also look for things like custom details that were added after purchasing, like diamonds or enhanced bezels which were later-era additions and unoriginal to the piece. There are even many buyers and collectors who will favor watches that have never had a polishing or servicing that could have hindered the natural aging process of the timepiece.
An Asian clone 2836 or 2813 is also available, and the replica with such clone movement is much cheaper. However, if I were you, I will choose a genuine ETA version, because it works more accurate and the watch will serve you longer time.Two big difference lies in the new Sea-Dweller 126600 and previous models, one is the case diameter, the other is that this one has a cyclops at 3 o’clock. The bezel of the replica 126600 looks more robust and the clicking tooth is more obvious than Submariner. By the way, there is blue superlume applied on our markers and hands. Here are some more details of the replica in the following:Movement: Genuine Swiss ETA 2836, Hacking Feature Case: 316L Stainless Steel, 43mm*14mm, Uni-directional Ceramica Black Bezel Dial: Superlumed Black Dial Crystal: Sapphire Bracelet: Steel with Flip Lock Deployant Clasp Water Resistant: 50M Hi Susan I would like to give some feedback which you can put on your site if you want to:I have received my Rolex submariner and am so pleased with the watch. The detailing is near perfect and the weight is the same as the original. It is a substantial chunk on your wrist and I love it!I have to admit that I doubted the truthfulness of wrist watch spot when a few days went by leading up to Christmas and I had little response after I had made payment.I quickly became angry thinking that I had been conned.This lack of response was soon explained and since that time I have had prompt responses to my emails all the way up to and post delivery of my watch.I am now in the process of ordering my second time piece!Maybe you will mistake this watch as a Submariner when see it at the first glance. I though it was a vintage Submariner made by Rolex in the 50s, it has a very close appearance to Sub 5513 or 1680. However, the watch is Tudor, which is a sub brand of Rolex. Owning a Rolex is the dream of many people, but it is unreachable because most Rolex watches are sold at high prices, the appearance of Tudor makes their dream come true. Now this replica even makes these people easier to get a good Submariner watch at a very low price.If you did not notice the dial, you could even think it is a Submariner watch. The case construction is the same as Rolex Submariner, although a little smaller than the latter in diameter. Black diving-style bezel is engraved with markers, the bezel is uni-directional rotating, the whole watch is brushed, while the two steel crown protectors are polished. The case back is different from Rolex Submariner, it is engraved with “ORIGINAL OYSTER CASE BY ROLEX GENEVA”, which means that this watch is not only made by Rolex, but also uses Rolex Oyster case. So, you can imagine that the quality of Tudor should not be low, in some way it has the same quality as Rolex.Black dial is protected by domed plexi plastic crystal, the dial exactly reveals the inner vintage texture of this replica. There are oval-shaped hour markers except markers at 3,6,9 and 12 o’clock. These markers are all applied yellowish luminous material, central hour hand is Mercedes-Benz style, the second hand is also very similar to Submariner’s. You can see the size of the hands is a bit smaller than Submariner’s. Under the Tudor Shield Logo, there are printings of “TUDOR” and “OYSTER PRINCE”, which is different from “OYSTER PERPETUAL” on other Rolexs. It is printed “SUBMARINER” at 6 o’clock. In a word, the replica Tudor completely uses the vintage Submariner’s dial style.The bracelet is brushed, it has a Tudor Shield Log engraved on the link at the end. Made of solid 316F stainless steel and uses Oyster structure, the bracelet also features a diver extension like Submariner watch. The replica Tudor Submariner is equipped with an Asian clone ETA 2836 movement, which is one of the mostly used fake movements in our market.Conclusion: the watch is a good try for people who want to wear a vintage Rolex Submariner. You may also know better about the rich history of Rolex through this vintage watch. But if you want an authentic Submariner watch in good quality, then choose 116610 LN.Now my blog has accumulated a lot of vintage watches right now, from Rolex, Omega to Panerai brands, every piece of them is loved by blog readers and has gotten a lot of responding here. Today, I am going to introduce another vintage Rolex, which maybe cause another storm and hot discussion, it is the Double Red Sea-Dweller, which is a vintage watch every one wants to own. Sea-Dweller was born in the 1960s and it is based on Submariner, so you will find those Sea-Dweller watches made in old times had a thin case, which are different from modern Sea-Dweller models that own thick case and crystals.The vintage Double Red Sea-Dweller is a replica of 1665, why it is called double red? The dial tells. At 6 o’clock on top of these white printings, there are two lines of red words, “SEA-DWELLER” and “SUBMARINER 2000”, this is the original of its name.
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.
