Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chrono 26331, there are several factories that have made its replica, including B, OM and IP, but none of these factories are making a correct replica of this watch, although I suggest you buy this replica from OM before, however, OM is a weird watch maker, it usually needs to wait for a long time to get a factory from them, especially ordering this AP 26331.
The AP 26331, I love it more than the 26240, it looks more beautiful than the latter, I just like its subdial design, which is in different size, I do not like the same size of the subdial on 26240. In the past, whether the 26331 replica made by B or OM, there are obvious flaws. For example, the position of the three subdials is not correct on the 26331 made by B. The small hands on the two subdials at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock do not work on the 26331 from OM. Both of these flaws are fixed on this AP 26331 that was just published by APW Factory. And on this new 26331 from APW, the case thickness is very close to that of genuine watch, which is measured to be 11mm. I also measured the diameter, it is 41mm.
The functions of the APW 26331 are the same as that of genuine, the correct position of the small dials, sunburst finish on the small dials, laddered date window design, stable SL4801 movement, good chamfering finish on the case and bracelet, there are many advantages on this replica 26331.
But there are two shortcomings which I think APW should improve next, first, the brushing on both sides of the case is not obvious and should be enhanced. Second, the area which the small dials contact with the main dial is not well processed, it does not look very clear. Fortunately, the watch is sold at a much affordable price than that of 26240.
Our new year holiday ended several days ago, now all watch factories have been back to this business, the shipping company also can arrange shipping of packages. At first, before introducing a new Panerai watch, I would like to announce a good news that just came from the market, which is Clean decided to use Dandong 4131 movement in the new 12xxxx series Daytona, and in the Panda Daytona 126500, they already used the Dandong 4130 movement. This is a great news for our watch fans in the beginning of 2025. Because of this, the competition in Daytona between Clean and VS will be more and more fierce.
This Panerai is a new model made by VS Factory. Genuine Panerai PAM 1543 is made with the new Ti-Ceramitech material, but I guess the replica just uses a ceramic case, because it still feels heavy in my hand. The bezel insert and case use the same matt finish, the color looks the same on the bezel and case, the crown lever is titanium made in matt finish. In the past months, VS Factory has published several Luna Rossa Panerai replicas watches.
The dial is white, the hour hand and minute hand look morn modern than that on some old Submersible models, both are skeleton. The small second hand on the subdial at 9 o’clock is red, which enhances the readability of the entire dial. Small date window set at 3 o’clock has a black font in white background, the date font is exactly in the middle of the window.
On the case back, there are correct engravings, but the TORPEDO PIG does not look that clean like that on the genuine. Behind the back, it is a super clone P.900 automatic movement, which is one of the earliest super clone movements used in Panerai by VS Factory.
The band feels very comfortable, the outside nylon keeps a cool looking of the watch, while the back side rubber that contacts your skin will maintain a good wearing comfort.
By the way, please check the lume on the last picture, it is beautiful.
It is my first time to introduce this Patek watch on my blog, because many people have asked for this watch, I have not reviewed it because there is no super clone movement for this Patek watch, and I think there will not be a super clone movement for it in future, this Patek Philippe Nautilus 5726 is a watch with complicated functions, it is hard to make a super clone movement that can achieve so many functions at the same time, however, if you ask me if there is a good quality replica for this watch, I will say yes, I remembered two factories are making good quality replica of this Patek Nautilus 5726, one is GR, the other if PP. I do not think this replica from PP Factory is much better than the one from GR, but PP Factory charges a much higher price.
It is a good-looking Patek Philippe watch, looks more beautiful and more elegant than the Nautilus 5712 that has been very hot in recent years. I would like to talk about its movement first, it is said to be modified on basis of a Japanese Miyota automatic movement, PP Factory added extra plate on top of the original movement, then made very similar decoration on the movement plates and auto rotor. So you will find the case must be thicker than that of genuine, I measured it, the case is 40.5mm in diameter and 11.5mm in thickness. On some websites, they are saying this movement is on basis of a Miyota 9015, but I checked Miyota 9015 does not have so many functions, is it real?
The dial is blue, it has central hours, minutes, seconds, date, month, week, moon phase and 24-hour display, it is easy to adjust them through the buttons set on the four corners of the case. Through the button on the case at 2 o’clock, you can push to change the month. Push the button at 4 o’clock, the date will change. The moon phase will also change by pushing the button at 8 o’clock. Through the button at 10 o’clock, you can adjust week display. By the way, the moon phase display is like genuine, it only moves a little bit each day. And the dial color looks very close to that of genuine, much better color than that on their Nautilus 5712 from PPF. However, there are two defects I can found on the dial, first, the date font is a bit sunken, the date on genuine watch is closer to the dial plate. Second, when you pull out the crown to adjust time, the second hand will stop, while genuine watch won’t.
For this 5726 replica, PP Factory also offers two other colors, grey and white. The white dial looks good, at least it does not have color difference.
2024 is an important year both for our watch makers and watch fans, we welcomed a lot of new models that have been made with breakthrough watch-making technology. The absolute protagonists in last year are VS and APS, we do not deny that Clean still occupies the largest market share in Rolex field, but VS has already caught up, and APS indeed brought us many surprises. Hope they can release more super clones in future.
1.Clean Factory V3 GMT-Master II Pepsi
For this GMT-Master II Pepsi, it has been improved by Clean Factory for two times, now the latest version is V3. Upon V2, the biggest improvement lies in its ceramic bezel, it is said that the color has been corrected to look closest to that of genuine, while some persons still like the bezel color on V2, still a bit controversial, however, there are still a large amount of watch fans chose to buy this V3 from Clean. By the way, I also only recommend Clean if you want super clone Rolex GMT-Master.
2.VS Factory Daytona 126500
For the new 12xxxx series Daytona, VS Factory has the best movement, Clean has the most complete collection. Since the last upgrade VS has made on hands of 126500, the sales of their Daytona 126500 suddenly improved. This Daytona 126500 from VS is equipped with a super clone 4131 from Dandong, which is supposed to be better than the Shanghai version used by Clean.
3.Clean Factory Daytona 116518
With a yellow gold case, ceramic bezel and black rubber band, this Daytona is one of the best-selling Daytona replicas from Clean. For the sales of Daytona in the market, Clean still occupies the biggest market share, the competition between VS and Clean in this area is still fierce. Actually, every Daytona made by Clean can be put onto this top ten list, they are really perfect clones.
4.Day-Date Heavy Version
I put this watch here just because the heavy version of Day-Date Rolex is really popular, in the past year, many people were asking the weight of a Rolex they were going to buy. And today in Day-Date field, more and more people are participating in the production of heavy versions of Day-Date Rolex replicas, including GM, QF, K, CBD, THB, etc., customers are also more confused than before. Well, currently I recommend two watch makers, GM and THB. GM is the earliest factory that makes the heavy version, they have price advantage, THB has a high price, but they use super clone 3255, the finish is better.
5.PP Factory Nautilus 5712 V3
The 5712 made by PP or Z has been upgraded to V3, with super clone 240 movement and new clasp. We can see that Nautilus moon phase 5712 from PP is very popular in the market, many dealers provide extra service to upgrade its dial with SW Dial and Hands, just like they do on Nautilus 5711 from 3K.
6.VS Factory Grey Datejust with Jubilee Bracelet
You can buy this Datejust from VS or Clean, both versions are very good. I more recommend Clean version before, but modded watches are very hot today, more people buy this Datejust from VS Factory and then made some modifications, for example, replacing its bezel, dial and hands with the bezel, dial and hands from genuine, this is a great idea, and this won’t cost you too much. The super clone DD3235 movement allows watch fans to to this job.
7.APS Factory RM055
Richard Mille has been very hot in the past two years, APS Factory made big improvements on the RM replicas, especially on the model RM055. This RM055 soon became the best seller in Richard Mille field once being published by APS.
8.APS Factory AP 15407
More AP watches can be put in this position, such as 15400, 15500 and 15720 from APS, but people seemed to be paying more attention to the AP 15407 in past year, since that, APS made a big improvement on the balance wheel of this watch. Many watch fans are still not satisfied yet and seeking for trusted source that could add double working balance wheel, it can be done, but too expensive.
9.QF Daytona Le Mans
QF is the watch maker that produced this Daytona, they provide two versions, regular weight version and heavy weight version. I do not suggest you buy the heavy weight version, because they added extra links to increase the weight. By the way, Clean Factory will also publish the Le Mans Daytona soon.
10.3K Factory Nautilus 5711
This watch deserves a more forward position, it is a very popular watch in modded watch market, many people bought this watch from 3K, replacing its dial, hand and date wheel with SW Dial, Hand and Date Wheel, it seems like more and more people are accepting this modded watch now.
There are a lot of other watches that were also sold very well in the market, especially Rolex watches, there are too many, Submariner, Datejust, Daytona, they can even make a top 10 or top 20, every Rolex coming from VS and Clean should be a super clone, no doubt about this. Every one has their own top 10, I can not include every best seller in this list.
Our Chinese New Year holiday will start soon, I think most watch factories will be on holiday after this week, the shipping company will stop providing service on Jan. 23. In the beginning of 2025, since January, we have seen a lot of new replicas, but the most important watch should be the Audemars Piguet 26240 Flyback, now the replicas of AP 26240 have stainless steel in black, white, blue, green and black ceramic available from APS. But in last week, APS just published a rose gold model, which is the following one with blue dial, and they will publish another rose gold one with green dial in this week, I think many of you guys have been expecting this green gold one for a long time. The replica 26240 has a super clone 4401 movement that can provide the flyback chrono function, which is another breakthrough improvement in this industry.
The second new arrival replica is a Tudor Pelagos FXD GMT model made by M+ Factory. The watch is made with Titanium that is brushed, the case is measured to be 42mm in diameter and 12.7mm in thickness. The bezel is bi-directional rotating with a black ceramic insert in matt finish. The entire watch is only 70.2 grams in weight. M+ is a very low-key factory in our market, they have only made a few models, but every piece is high quality. This Tudor FXD GMT replica will become another best seller, it has a very correct color in the bezel markers, hour markers and hands, the GMT hand and printings “PELAGOS GMT” are also in the sams orange color as that on genuine watch. The green fabric band with unique logo makes it distinguishable among all Pelagos FXD models M+ Factory has produced. M+ also offers one black leather pack for the watch.
The most important watch, which we have been expecting so long, is finally available now. Now, only stainless steel models and the black ceramic model are available. APS Factory has really made a lot of popular replica watches in past years, I think this AP 26240 will become another best seller in 2025.
In Audemars Piguet field, it is not hard to find super clones, there are popular Royal Oak 15400 and 15500, these are really made very well and the most outstanding AP replicas, but for watch fans who seeking for chrono models in AP, the 26331 from OM has some defect in function, while those AP ROO Sec@12 models have decreased in popularity since the closure of J12 Factory, so it is very important for AP watch fans to find another flagship model in AP RO Chrono collection, hope this 26240 made by APS can complete this mission.
Currently for the stainless steel 26240, there are four models available, each is different in dial color, there are black, white, green and blue. Together with the black ceramic one, there are totally five models being released. The case is 41mm, I measured its thickness, about 12.68mm. Stainless steel model is about 170.8g in weight, the ceramic model is 162.6g in weight.
Equipped with the super clone 4401 movement, tts chrono function is different from that on Daytona. Push the button at 2 o’clock, the central second hand will start to move, then you push the button at 4 o’clock, the central second hand will back to zero but will not stop, next it will move again. If you want the central second hand to stop moving, push the 2:00 button again, it will stop immediately, then push the 4:00 button, the central second hand will back to zero and not move. This is real flyback chrono function.
Correct, we usually call it V3 edition, on some dealers websites, they may call it V5. This replica Omega Seamaster was firstly produced by VS Factory in 2020, now in the beginning of the 2025, they made an important improvement on this replica, which finally manufactured a titanium mesh bracelet out for this watch. The last version, also V2, is equipped with a stainless steel bracelet. Now with the updated titanium bracelet, the entire watch will have a weight of 95 grams, the titanium bracelet weighs about 37 grams separately. Why VS Factory did not use a titanium mesh bracelet on the watch in 2020? Actually it is hard to make a perfect mesh bracelet with titanium material before, and on the V3 edition, I think the finish on the titanium bracelet is also not as good as that on previous stainless steel bracelet.
Happy New Year! Hope you guys happy every day in 2025.
Because the movement insde the replica Cubitus 5821 is modified from Miyota 9015, so its case is measured to be 9.15mm, which is a bit thicker than that of genuine watch. However, if you really like this watch, you can buy now because the Miyota 9015 is stable, I think the replica won’t have issues in future. It is also wise for you to wait til PPF or 3K makes the replica, but then the price of them will be much higher.
In recent years, one of the super clone watches that have been mostly improved in the market is Nautilus Moon Phase 5712, which is made by PPF, actually it is also ZF. I thought they were two different factories when there was a news saying that they cooperated and developed the V2 Edition of 5712 in last year, actually PPF and ZF are the same watch maker. This replica watch is also one of the best sellers in 2024, I think it is more popular than the replicas in other brand watches like Panerai.
For Nautilus 5712, I still remembered the first improvement was made on the movement, PPF developed this super clone 240 movement and achieved the real power reserve function. The second improvement is on the clasp, now this replica is fitted with the latest deployant clasp that is the same as that on genuine watch. However, when you are looking for this watch on the internet, besides the latest version from PPF, some dealers may provide you with other options for 5712. The first option is the one with SW dial and hands, but still using the 240 movement from PPF. You can buy this one, because after being replaced with SW dial and hands, the replica is closer to genuine. Check the pictures below, the left 5712 is using SW dial and hands, the right one is the original 5712 from PPF. We can clearly see the dial color difference, and after being replaced with the SW hands, the axis of the hands is solid.
Some dealers may provide you with another option, which not only change its dial and hands, but also replace its movement. The pictures below just showing the movement that could be used in the Nautilus 5712. It is a completely custom-made 240 movement from ACE. Well, I do not suggest you buy the 5712 with this movement, because it is not stable. This custom-made 240 has a free sprung balance wheel, not index regulated, although this feature makes the movement look closer to genuine 240 calibre, the movement accuracy can not be guaranteed. The custom-made 240 movement also has a much better decoration on the movement plate, you can see the engravings, whose thickness and color are very close to that of genuine, the micro auto rotor is 18K gold made, solid gold. However, this movement is too expensive, need thousands of US Dollars, and its stability is so unsure, so I do not recommend the 5712 with this movement.
Some people have been waiting for this replica Patek Philippe watch for a long time, now it came out, made by TW Factory, two models available, one with green dial, the other is a two tone style with blue dial. Do I recommend them? Both replica watches are in middle quality, not super clones, but the quality is acceptable, because the movement inside them is a Miyota 9015 modified clone movement, we know Miyota 9015 movement has been used in this industry for many years and well known for its high stability, PP Factory is still using Miyota 9015 movement in their Nautilus 5711 replica watches, they have been using this movement to compete with 3K Factory in replica Nautilus 5711 for years, and PP Factory is still occupying a part of the market, even most people will choose the 5711 from 3K. The two Patek Philippe Cubitus 5821 replicas are made by TW Factory, about this factory, there is a very interesting thing, which is any watch maker that produces such quality replicas in the market can be called TW, but there is a real TW Factory before, I know there is a real TW, that’s a shame for this factory in such a situation.
The case of the Cubitus 5821 is measured to be 45mm in diameter and 8.8mm in thickness. It is equipped with a Miyota 9015 movement, whose movement plate and auto rotor have been decorated to look of genuine Patek 330 calibre. The movement is reliable, but a bit noisy. I think PP Factory and 3K Factory will also make them in near future, PP Factory, also named ZF, will make them with better finish on case and bracelet, and 3K Factory will install a super clone 330 movement in them, so, you can wait for the version from 3K. But it won’t cost you too much to buy this from TW if you can not resist its charm, after all the Cubitus looks so classic.
