The Controversial Replica Rolex Submariner

Submariner is a very important model in the development of Rolex, it even had a great impact on the entire Swiss watch industry. Many people will consider a Rolex first if they want to buy their first watch, while Submariner will become their first choice in Rolex. Rolex Submariner is very popular because it is very stable, and you can wear it in many occasions, whether to match your business suits or wear it for diving, it is a great watch.

In replica watch industry, Rolex Submariner has always been very hot, especially the models 116610LN and 116610LV. At the beginning, there are not too many factories making it, perhaps only BP and Noob, absolutely Noob factory makes the best replicas of Submariner, we know, BP only makes some low to moderate quality Rolex replicas. However, The replicas of Submariner 116610LN and 116610LV became to be very controversial, because too many factories entered into this field and started to make replicas of Submariner, and their quality is also very good, so, buyers got confused, they do not know which factory to purchase from.

Today, I write this article here, not to tell you which factory makes the best replicas of Submariner 116610LN or 116610LV, I do not know which one is the best, which factory’s Submariner is closer to genuine. here I write this article, just want to tell you guys some truth. First, if you want good quality Submariner replicas, please buy from Noob, AR or ZZ. I only recommend these three factories. Second, if you ask me which factory makes the best one, I do not know. I know you guys who read my blog articles are also members in those replica watches forums, many Chinese are active in the forums, and most are workers of those trusted dealers, once there are new products, these people will try their best to promote, so, do you really believe what they say? For example, when ZZ factory published V2 Submariner, they said it is the best Submariner in the market, but is it really better than Noob’s? Third, like I said before, every factory has their own advantages, also their selling points. On the Submariner, AR has the best case and bracelet finish, Noob has the best dial details, while ZZ has the best bezel, especially the green Submariner 116610LV, ZZ makes the green bezel correct, which is closest genuine, I think this is the reason why ZZ green Submariner 116610LV has a higher price than that of Noob.

Maybe Noob has felt the strong competition from ZZ factory, for their next generation of Submariner, I think they will continue to improve the ceramic bezel, especially the green ceramic bezel on 116610LV. On previous Noob Submariner from V5 to V8 edition, the color of bezel markers usually fades, Noob solved it on V10 edition, but on their green Submariner 116610LV, the green ceramic is not too pure, there are tiny black spots on some pieces, so you need to tell your dealers to check carefully so that they won’t get a bad one. About the ceramic bezel, I think Noob will improve it on next V11 or V12 edition. While ZZ factory said that whether on their black Submariner 116610LN or green hulk 116610LV, the bezel markers will never fade in color, they use real Platinum coating.

I was lucky to get one hulk Submariner from ZZ factory before, I compared it with Noob’s and found that ZZ indeed makes a better green ceramic bezel, the color is closer to that of genuine hulk. But I do not know whether it will fade or not, this lets time to prove. Whatever, if you want a hulk Submariner, both Noob and ZZ are good choices, but currently ZZ has the best green ceramic bezel. By the way, the latest black Submariner from ZZ is V2 edition, for green Sub, the latest version is V2s.

Here I share some photos and video of ZZ Green Submariner 116610LV, please check below.

New Richard Mille Carbon Watches from ZFactory

Replica Richard Mille RM35-02 Black Carbon

Richard Mille is a very cool brand, it has a lot of models that look attractive to men, besides Hublot, I think Richard Mille is the most successful sports Swiss watch in recent years, it is a new brand to the Swiss watch industry, but has already been very popular. Due to its unique design and good wearing comfort during exercise, Richard Mille is loved by a lot of people who love sports, at the same time, their price is also much higher than that of other Swiss brands.

Due to the high prices of genuine watches, some people think about replicas, yes, I have to admit that there are some good quality replicas of Richard Mille coming from ZF and KV factory, but are they really good enough? Or just looking good? There are also some people in the market who can do custom-made work on Richard Mille, are they really good choices? I do not think so. These people who custom make RM replicas for you usually ask for a high price, more than $1000 usd, that’s not worthy. Let’s talk about these custom-made RM first. These molders usually buy RM replicas from ZF or KV factory, then do custom-made work on the watches according to your requirement, but what they can change is limited to the outside face of the RM, what others they can do? To improve the water resistance or install a better movement? They can not do that. Then why spend over 1000 usd to buy it? It is still a not good replica.

As far as I know, whether the RM is made by KV or ZF, it is not water resistant. Especially those RM replicas made one year or two years ago, they are totally not water resistant, about the new models I am going to introduce today, ZFactory only said you can wear it when washing your hands, maybe you’d better take it off and put in the pocket when there are rains outside. Is this a joke? Absolutely not. These new RM watches made by ZFactory this time are really nice, look at the case, the forged carbon texture looks better than that on previous RM, that’s really impressive, maybe ZFactory has learned experience from some molders such as ABD. However, that does not change the truth, which is it is not water resistant. Now I am going to tell a real joke, one day, you and your friends drive to the beach, absolutely you are wearing a ‘real’ RM from a Chinese watch factory, your friends is surprised by your watch and said “Wow, it is beautiful, let’s go to the beach and find some fun”, you agreed and had a very good time, but when resting and eating something with your friends in the restaurant, you noticed that water has leaked into your watch, now only “holy shit” in your mind and you lost thousands.

If you can take a good care of your watch and do not let it contact with water, these new RM watches are good choices. ZFactory said that the rubber O-ring on crown, rubber band and Titanium clasp can be interchanged with genuine RM, that’s a good news, if you own genuine Richard Mille, you can buy these spare parts from ZFactory.

VS Factory Replica Panerai PAM 1661 Luminor Carbotech with Super Clone P.9010

Replica Panerai Luminor Marina PAM 1661

Having not published reviews about Panerai replica watches for a long time, actually there are not new models coming from the market, all new replicas of Panerai have been reviewed on my blog, including PAM 961, PAM 985, PAM 960, PAM 1616, etc. It seems like all these new replica Panerai watches published in recent months are coming from Luminor Submersible collection, and most of them are made with forged carbon material, today, I would like to introduce another new Panerai replica watch that is also made with forged carbon material, but is is from Luminor Marina series, its reference number is PAM 1661.

Before giving a detailed introduction of PAM 1661, I want to know if the Basel event of this year has been cancelled, I did not see any new models coming from Rolex, if being cancelled, when will it be opened again? The cancel of Basel event in 2020 also affected the business of fake watch industry.

Replica Panerai PAM 1661 Black Dial

PAM 1661 is made by VS factory, now, almost all good quality replicas of Panerai are made by VS factory, you can not find any other factories that make better Panerai replicas than VSF, that’s the truth. There are also some exceptions, such as Noob PAM 111, ZF PAM 127. About this replica PAM 1661, it has a large case diameter of 44mm like other Luminor Marina models, the case is measured to be 18.5mm thick, I think it is too thick, even those replicas with Asia 7750 movement are not that thick, maybe this is the common issues of all replica watches, some factory claimed that their replicas have the same thickness as genuine, that’s impossible, I do not think they are, possibly they are already very close to.

PAM 1661 is made with forged carbon, in the past new models that were just published within months, most are made with forged carbon, some are made with Titanium, Panerai has seldom published new models that are made with stainless steel in recent years, looks like they are addicted to using new materials in their watch making, sometimes they did it and the result is really great, but do not forget your tradition, actually I do not like the design of PAM 1661, it looks like a cheap fashion watch, it is lack of Panerai’s classic.

PAM 1661 Back

The movement inside the replica is perfect, it is developed by VS factory themselves, Super Clone P.9010, which features balance wheel at 7 o’clock, is considered to be a perfect derived movement from P.9000. The movement is very reliable, but replica is a replica, if your contact did not test the movement for you before shipping, you still have a chance to get a “bad” one from VS factory. Now, buy this replica can get one extra pair of black rubber straps for free.

V6 Factory Replica IWC Aquatimer Sharks Watch Review

Replica IWC Aquatimer Sharks

About Aquatimer, I liked it before, especially those models with two colors on the bezel, they look more classic than modern models that were published in recent years. Before, there are various style of Aquatimers, but now, the look of Aquatimer looks boring, there are no Aquatimers models that look amazing or refreshing, the design or material makes the modern Aquatimer look solid and strong enough, but I really think that IWC seldom used new materials in the production of their diving series Aquatimer, while other brands like Panerai, Cartier, Audemars Piguet, Hublot all positively adopted new watch-making materials. The IWC watch I am going to introduce today is an Aquatimer special edition watch, the back of the watch has sharks engravings, maybe the purpose of IWC publishing this watch is to raise people’s attention in protecting the sharks or animals in the sea. If the dial has a a shark logo, the watch will look cool.

The replica is from V6 factory, it is a replica watch with chronograph function. The round case is very big, measured in 44mm in diameter, not including the size of crown and chrono buttons. The case is fully made of 316L stainless steel, the bezel, mid-case and back make up this case, which is almost 17mm thick. I trust the work of V6 factory, the case finish is very good, generally speaking, if your replica watch is from big factory like Noob, AR, V6 or ZF, its case finish really can compare with genuine watch, some case parts can be interchanged with genuine.

The dial has structured design, the inner bezel is bevelled, it is in black, which is in a high contrast with the grey dial in the center. Two subdials are positioned at 6 o’clock and 12 o’clock, both subdials have very perfect details that look so close to genuine watch, the two subdials also have the same functions as genuine, small dial at 6 o’clock is for seconds display, while the small dial at 12 o’clock is for minute-chronograph display. Under dark condition, you will see two lume light color on this watch, green and blue lume color on the dial, the lume is much stronger than genuine watch, but I think it can not last as long as genuine.

No doubt, this is a high quality replica watch. But if you are going to buy an IWC Aquatimer replica, I do not recommend this one, first, it is not the entry-level Aquatimer model, second, there are other IWC replicas in our market that are better than this one. I posted a review about watches with original movement, in that post, there is one IWC Ingenieur replica, it uses a real ETA 2892 movement, please check its video below.
