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.
The case of this replica was made of solid 316 stainless steel. In order to be more harmonious as a whole, there are several key components have used this material. Such as its bracelet, has been polished based on stainless steel. And its crown, even its Arabic numeral markers and bar markers in the while dial. All of them are in concert with its main tone. The markers and hands have been coated by super luminous with different colors. Blue color was used in hour markers and hour hand. Green color was used in bezel and minute hand. Such considerate design can guarantee that you can read time clearly no matter in day or at night, and when diving in dark deep sea. You still can distinguish time information in shorter time. The date display window was set in the place of three o’clock. Considering of ocean such specific environment, this Omega Planet Ocean replica used superior quality to ensue practical function. Such as its bezel, except its unique character that was different from anther diving wrist watch which surrounding with numerals in bezel for chronograph. Its bezel inlaid diamond just with the motivation that showing the glamour of diamond and the craft of inlaying. In addition, it used white ceramic which can be tough enough to adjust the environment of deep sea.
The crown logo on the buckle is not as good as gen. Movement and Crown Brand-new original ETA 25J movement, the replica Rolex Yacht-Master can be equipped with 2824 or 2836 movement, its daily inaccuracy is less than 5 seconds.SuperLume Dial and Hands The lume color has no difference between hour markers and hands.Having introduced several pieces of vintage Rolex replica watches here, and some has won the praise, especially the Daytona Paul Newman. This time I will share another vintage Rolex here, it is Milgauss 6541 replica. Genuine watch was published by Rolex in the 50s, although not as popular as other vintage models like Paul Newman, GMT 1675, Submariner Vintage 5510 and other vintage PAMs. My watch supplier told me that all vintage Rolex models in our market are manufactured by the same factory, including this Milgauss 6541, which has attracted me due to its special dial details.It is not a replica that should be called a super clone like other replicas made by Noob, J12 and V6, but I love it just because of its retro style and some special symbols. Case is 38mm in diameter, black bezel has a big triangle mark in orange color at 12 o’clock, there are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 digits and triangle markers all in white. The bezel could be unidirectional rotating. Dial is black and has special patterns, all hands are in silver tone, unique lighting second hand has a red tip that is very eye catching. Three-dimensional silver triangle marker at 3, 6 and 9, other hour markers are all yellow dots. The word “MILGAUSS” under Rolex Crown Logo is in orange color, which exactly matches the orange triangle bezel marker. I can not check how close the replica is made to genuine, but I already has all necessary features of those vintage Milgauss watches produced in that period. If you are a collector of vintage Rolex and hard to find a genuine Milgauss 6541, this one could become a perfect alternative.The replica uses a clone ETA 2836-2 automatic movement, here I made a movement test, see the result on the photo below, it said that there is only one second error each day, and the beating frequency is also the same as genuine ETA 2836-2 movement, which is 28800vph. In a word, this replica not only does well in acting as a vintage Milgauss 6541, but also offers the wearer accurate timing. It is worth buying.Today, I am about to introduce one Panerai replica watch that is engraved with Florentine motifs. Yes, it is the latest Luminor 1950 Firenze 3 Days, with a reference PAM 972. This is not the first PAM which Panerai published with Florentine motifs on case and movement. We know that PAM 604 and PAM 672 also have these special engravings, but these two PAMs are Radiomir limited editions. For PAM 972, it is absolutely the first Luminor watch with Florentine motifs. Now, in Panerai watch family, PAM 972 is also the only one Panerai Luminor watch with such unique engravings. Based on the traditional PAM 372, Panerai made this engraved version PAM 972. The replica PAM 972 Firenze here is made by V9, which is a new factory. It is said that this V9 factory now makes the best Rolex Submariner replica watches, but I do not think so. However, this Panerai Luminor Firenze PAM 972 replica made by V9 has a good quality.I do not know why Panerai makes these special engraved PAMs, whatever, the main purpose I think is to show respect to Firenze, which is the design inspiration of early Panerai watches. Actually the design concept of many modern Panerai models is also coming from this old Italy city.
There are also other dial details that tell this Sea-Dweller from others, that is its hour markers are unique, they are oval-shaped, expect a triangle at 12 and other two bar shapes at 6 and 9. All hour markers are a little yellow not white. Minute scales are thin sticks in white. There is a date window positioned at 3, black date font in white background. “SWISS – T < 25” at 6 instead of “SWISS MADE”.Black bezel is bi-directional rotating like genuine. The case back has special engravings curved, including Rolex Lgo, and words of “ROLEX”, “ROLEX PATENT . GAS ESCAPE VALVE . OYSTER”. The case back is also screwed down like modern Sea-Dweller, you can see there are some digital numbers engraved on the back side of the bracelet, I do not know what meaning. The replica 1665 is equipped with an Asian clone ETA 2846 movement, it has 17 jewels and beats at 21600 times per hour, I have done a movement test, like the picture said, only 7 seconds inaccuracy each day.Specifications: Movement: Asian Clone ETA 2846, 17 Jewels, 21600bph Case: 40mm*13mm, 316L Stainless Steel, Bi-directional Black Bezel Crystal: Plexi Plastic Dial: Black with Dot Hour Markers Bracelet: Solid Steel Oyster Bracelet with Diver’s Extension Water Resistant: 30 Meters In recent times, I have written a lot about Rolex watches and most of them are vintage Sub and Explorer, they got a great response on my blog, many readers asked how to buy it and encouraged me to written more things about those vintage watches. Yes, I will keep doing my work to introduce more fantastic replica watches, besides, all advice I have given to you is honest, there are a lot types of replica watches in the market, each type varies in quality, I just hope you to get the most high-end ones.
The dial is black, it has delicate matte texture. The dial has a very high readability, besides the big hour markers and wide hands, there is also increased luminescence on hour markers and hands to ehance the visibility when you are in dark conditions. This IWC Aquatimer is very like Rolex Submariner, both have robust case, big hour markers, wide hands and strong dial lume. The minute hand is highly recognizable because the orange Swiss lume material is in line with the eye-catching orange 1-15 diving markers on the bezel.The replica watch is equipped with an Asia ETA 2892 automatic movement, which is very reliable and has been used in many replica watches such as Cartier Ballon Bleu, MK IWC Pilot, Hublot Classic Fusion, etc., and these have become the best-selling replica watches in our market. The following are detailed photos of the two watches, please check.Big Pilot is one of the best-selling watches of IWC. It has a very iconic onion-shaped crown that is very large. Among all IWC series, Pilot is the most popular one, while Big Pilot is the best-selling due to its large size under current big watch trend. There are a lot of Big Pilot models IWC has published, some already have accupied an important position in watch market, for example, the Big Pilot Prince. Today, I will introduce two new Big Pilot watches, one is made with Titanium, the other is made with solid bronze.
This factory does a good job in case polishing, which uses two different processing ways, the case lugs are polished and the part connecting bracelet is brushed. Polished lugs are smooth and have a certain arc degree, so the case fits you hand perfectly. Fluted bezel has the same amount of grooves as genuine, the 18k yellow gold coated on bezel is thick, never fade, so it is on the bracelet.Replica Rolex 41mm Black Dial The dial looks big, white letterings on black dial background. The date window at 3 o’clock shows black date on white background. The most precious part on the replica lies in its diamond hour markers, box-shaped markers with one diamond set in the center, whose brilliance exactly echoes with the yellow gold tone. I love simple dial style and it looks so generous.Replica Rolex Datejust Crown The most important watch part is the movement. This replica Rolex Datejust is equipped with a Swiss ETA 2836 automatic movement, which is the best movement used by replica watches. However, because the replica uses 18k gold, diamonds and Swiss ETA 2836 movement, it is sold at a high price. If you like this replica watch, please contact me, I will send one original Rolex box as a free gift, only available for top five buyers.dReplica Rolex Daytona 116500 Ceramic Watch 904L Case with Super Clone 4130 Movement Rolex Daytona 116500 Ceramic ReplicaIn recent days, there is a new factory that uses the latest watch material and super clone movement to make replica Rolex watches in our market, its name is AR. This factory produced a lot of amazing replica Rolex within these months, such as V8 116610 Submariner, 116610LV, etc. This time I will introduce another great replica watch they made, it is a Daytona watch, reference number is 116500. This Daytona watch is very popular and is in high demand in the watch market, a lot of my blog readers asked me to do a review about this Daytona watch, now I have a chance to pick up the best version to give a review here, hope you guys like it.
In the world of luxury product acquisition, there are few things more distressing to the mind of a passionate collector than the thought of harm coming to their valued possessions. Yes, nothing in this realm can hold a candle to health or the well-being of one’s loved ones, but these small treasures, often rare or unique (and certainly expensive) hold a special place in the heart of one who has dedicated their time and effort to make them theirs.I am often asked if it is important to insure a collection of used luxury watches. In fact, I am asked it more often then makes conscionable sense to me, because the answer is simple: Yes, yes you should. And more to the point, if you own a luxury watch like a Rolex Submariner (let alone if you own numerous luxury watches) and you’re asking that question, you should save your breath for the insurance provider on the other end of the phone.And that’s really the best place to start. In this digital age, it seems we’ve all become a bit interaction-shy, but with a complex and potentially serious situation like making an insurance claim, it is always best to have set-up your policy having talked directly to another human being – an expert in their field. You really should leave nothing to chance. Don’t be afraid to ask stupid questions – insurance is complicated and rules and regulations vary from country to country (massively) and occasionally, even from region to region. If you move to a new area, don’t just assume that your previous policy will port seamlessly. Check it out. Trust me: It’s worth it.Having lived most of my life in the UK and Germany, I have intimate personal experience with moving a watch collection across borders. And the differences are stark. Some things are easier in some territories, and some things are harder, but the three things you should focus on first when looking into insuring your collection (or single watch) is the total value of your collection, how many “declarable” models you will need to put on your policy, and how all of this can affect your remaining contents insurance.So let’s start with the first point. This is relatively simple. Add up the retail value of the watches in your collection. When doing this, make sure you collate invoices and receipts (if possible) into a physical and digital folder. Scan everything, stick it in a PDF and email a copy to yourself rather than keeping it on your hard-drive alone (it stands to reason that if your property gets turned over your laptop may go the same way as your watches).
