Last time, I said that OR Factory has been back to the business and they published the Seamaster, I also made a comparison on that Seamaster between VS and OR, please check that review here at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/12/08/or-factory-seamaster/. Today, I will make a brief comparison on another Seamaster watch between VS and OR, it is the most popular Seamaster No Time to Die, I introduced this replica watch on my blog many times before, VS has the latest V4 edition, it is the one I recommend.
The left watch with a red “A” sticker on the crystal is made by VS, the right one is from OR.
The dial color looks different on the two watches above. VS dial has a darker color than OR dial. The dial of OR Seamaster looks slightly dark brown under the light. The color of luminous coating on hour markers is also different. Do you have the genuine watch? Which dial color is closer to the genuine?
The bezel markers on VS Seamaster are thicker.
The bezel pearl on OR Seamaster at the right is bigger. The color of the luminous coating in the round dot is also different.
The right watch from OR, its crystal stands higher above the bezel.
Both factories use titanium bracelet. The mesh bracelet from OR factory has a higher density. I like the bracelet of VS more.
No too much different. The Omega logo on the buckle. OR Factory has a better logo shape on the buckle.
The weight of VS Seamaster is 98.7 grams, while OR Seamaster has a weight of 102.7 grams.
Both factories offer a nato band for the watch. But the logo engraved on the buckle seems not too good on both watches.
The “007” engraving on the nato band of VS Seamaster looks much thickner.
For the movements shown above, do you know which one is from OR?
VS Factory has published the AP 15500 for weeks, I wrote a review about this watch at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/12/29/vsf-ap-15500/, today, I want to make a comparison review on the 15500 grey model between APS and VS.
I did not see the genuine watch, I do not know which one is closer to genuine watch, I think both are very good replicas.
First, dial color.
The left watch is from APS, the right watch is from VS. Both have grey dial. The grey color on APS 15500 looks slightly darker. And at some angles, the light reflection looks stronger on the dial of APS 15500.
Second, hour markers and hands. Check the two pictures below. Both watches have very good polishing on the hands and hour markers. On APS 15500, the hour markers feature wider luminous material, the white luminescence on the hour markers of VS looks narrower.
Third, date font. Look at the date font below. APS 15500 has a pure white date font that looks slightly thicker. VS 15500 has a warm white date font. The axis of hands looks different, it is solid on both watches, but I like the solid axis on VS more.
Fourth, the first link. Are you able to find the difference on the first link? The two pictures below, first watch is from APS, second watch is from VS. On VS 15500, there is a bigger gap between the first link and the main case. So you can feel the first link and even the entire steel bracelet are more flexible on VS 15500. Because of this, the case of VS 15500 maybe fit your wrist more comfortably.
By the way, like I mentioned before, the bracelet of APS 15500 has 24 links, which has one more link than VS. If you have a big wrist, maybe APS 15500 is a better choice.
Fifth, the comparison of AP logo on the clasp.
APS.VS.
Sixth, the movement. The following pictures show the SH4302 movement from APS, this is the latest SH4302 with free-sprung balance, APS just released. It features weights. The auto rotor is rose gold, but that sculpture AP looks yellow gold.
The following pictures show the movement DD4302 from VS. It is not real free-sprung movement even you do not see the regulator. There are no weights on the balance. But the golden tone of the auto rotor is better.
The first square Richard Mille watch I have seen. RM016 is made by U mi studio, which is a new name in this industry, but is actually operated by a factory that has been in this business for many years, it is ZF. ZF was a big famous watch maker before, more popular than APS factory, but now I even doubt that ZF does not exist after that raiding happened years ago. Why do I think so? Because ZF used to be more active, they usually published new watches in front of APS, but today, we seldom see new watches or improvements on existing models made by ZF, the situation is, a long time after APS released the new model, ZF finally promoted the same watch, this is strange. Or actually ZF is also operated by the same team APS? Anyone who wants to invest in developing new replica watches can use ZF name to sell them.
RM016 is a new model, no other factories make it, now only U mi has this watch, price is expensive. Some dealers said U mi is a high-end studio and makes the best Richard Mille replicas, this is not true, take this RM016 as an example, the replica is made with titanium, but genuine watch has a special processing on the titanium, so if you compare the case between the replica and genuine, you will see color difference. The thickness of the case is about 9.6mm, which is still a bit thicker than that of the genuine. Well, I am attracted by its square case, skeleton dial and the unique look of the auto rotor. However, do not buy this watch currently, there will be improvements made in future if this is really a popular RM watch.
What other Richard Mille watches does U mi have? Yes, they make some popular models like RM35-02, RM055 and RM67-02. The former two are also produced by APS, and APS is the first to offer the RM35-02 and RM055 with free-sprung balance movement, now ZF uses name U mi to sell these two Richard Mille watches, their intention is obvious, to pose as a high-end studio so that buyers think they are superior. Actually their quality is the same as that of APS.
Happy New Year! Hope you guys always be healthy in future.
Over the past year, discussions about the RM35-02 have constantly been the most talked-about topic, especially in the first half of 2025, the discussions about this watch reached their peak with the release of free-sprung movement from APS Factory, but later the factory Clean was closed, people’s attention then shifted to Rolex and VS Factory.
The market for this Richard Mille watch is actually quite chaotic, there are various grades made by different factories, I know many of you guys are looking for the best replica in the market, and RM35-02 is indeed the best choice if you are looking for the best replica Richard Mille in the market. However, you must know which factory makes the best one, I introduced the Richard Mille RM35-02 replica watch several times on my blog, please check the latest review about this watch at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/08/25/aps-factory-wins/. In my opinion, now both ZF and APS make the best replica RM35-02, both of them have the regular version and upgraded version with free-sprung balance. However, some dealers are still cheating customers by selling cheap fakes of RM35-02 at very expensive prices, someone has been scammed, so find a trusted source to buy this watch and be sure the RM35-02 you are buying has the following features.
1.The crystal face has to show blue reflection when you move the watch under the angle.
2.The two rotary wheels should be moving when you rotate the crown(winding the watch). The two rotary wheels are not for decoration.
3.When you pull out the crown to change or set the time, the central second hand should not be moving, it should be “frozen”, it will start moving again when you push the crown back in. If the second hand is still moving even the crown is pulled out to set the time, then your RM35-02 is not from ZF or APS.
4.On the back of the rubber band, the number should be 30M, not 11M or other numbers.
5.Made with real forged carbon, but the white stripes on the case should not to be too bright.
6.The watch should be water resistant, it is ok to wear the watch when walking in the light rain or washing your hands. And in some stores in our market, the water resistance performance can be reinforced with some ways, so do not worry about the water resistance of the Richard Mille RM35-02 from ZF and APS.
The video below is a RM35-02 from APS, it shows all features mentioned above.
I never thought that VS Factory will make Audemars Piguet replica watches, but in last week, they announced that they will make Audemars Piguet 15500, and now, the watch is available, two models just arrived, grey dial and blue dial, later, they will also publish white dial version and black dial version.
I do not know why VS Factory enters the Audemars Piguet market, I also don’t understand why VS factory doesn’t expand production capacity for Rolex, given that demand still far exceeds supply. Do they perhaps think that no other factory can be their competitor in the replica Rolex field? This is true, even Victory Factory, which has the Rolex replicas that have the closest quality to previous Clean Rolex, will not be their match. However, they need to consider their consumers and shouldn’t make their orders wait that long.
About the replica Audemars Piguet 15500, absolutely APS factory made the best one in the past, but if being compared with the one from VS, I do not know which one is better, like I said before, the super clone from different factories has their own advantages. APS made many improvements on the dial of the AP 15500 before, especially on the grey dial version, the AP 15500 with grey dial from APS Factory is considered to be the best one with the closest dial color to the genuine. Now many dealers claim that VS makes a better dial than APS, I do not believe this, this is the first time for VS Factory to make Audemars Piguet replica watch, it is impossible to make this AP perfect on the first try and beat the APS factory, just like a few years ago when APS challenged ZF in the Audemars Piguet field, it took several years for APS to defeat ZF and become the top player in the AP domain.
VS developed a new movement for their AP 15500, not the one used by APS, the clone 4302 by VS is from DD, while the 4302 by APS is from SH. The 4302 movement used by VS is not free-sprung balance, but the 4302 with real free-sprung balance from APS will be in stock soon, APS Factory just annouced this project. So, in a short period, the 15500 from APS is still the first choice for many customers. About the stability of the movement, the DD4302 from VS will have a good stability, but the SH4302 from APS also has been tested for many years, it is very stable.
It is nearly the end of year 2025, I will make time to summarize and discuss the best-selling replica watches in this year. Today, let us see what’s happening in the market recently.
First, it is about VS Factory. They are selling their Panerai watches at special prices, it seems like they are clearing the Panerai inventory to free up production capacity for Rolex, after all, their Rolex replica watches are currently in short supply, especially their Daytona and V2 Datejust.
What is VS Factory doing?
Their focus has shifted to Rolex, this is a great move, with the closure of Clean, they are already the biggest boss in this industry, they continued to improve the quality of their Rolex replica watches, especially the quality of the Daytona, Datejust and Day-Date. Now the Daytona has come to V3 edition, the Datejust and Day-Date have come to V2 edition. Daytona and Day-Date are increased weight version, while the Datejust from them has much better finishes than the ones made by other factories. The Panerai is not their improtant project, after all, the money they earned by selling Rolex in this year has exceeded the money earned from selling Panerai in the past several years.
What new watches VS Factory will bring to us next?
These new Seamaster and Railmaster have already been available.
This Seamaster has a 41mm case diameter, with black ceramic bezel, the dial is turquoise.
The three new models above are in 38mm, one is Railmaster, the other two are Seamaster. They are equipped with super clone 8800 movement.
New faces
Recently, some new factories appeared, first, it is the Clean Plus, we discussed this factory before, they are not the real Clean Factory, but the quality of their Rolex replica watches is very close to that of the Rolex made by previous Clean before. Just in last week, a new factory appeared, its name is Victory, we also call it V, or VF. Many dealers have talked about this factory and reviewed their watches, they said this is real Clean, and now they are providing customers with many replicas of Rolex watches, including Datejust, Daytona, GMT-Master II and the titanium YachtMaster. Look at the pictures below.
Having checked the titanium YachtMaster watch from Victory, it is exactly the same one made by Clean before, because the watch also has two key features that are the same as the one from Clean, first, its bracelet links are connected with ceramic tube. Second, its ceramic bezel has the same finish as the bezel on previous Clean, Clean Plus also has made this titanium YachtMaster, but its bezel is not as good as the one on the Victory.
This is the latest V3 edition of Daytona 116508 made by VS Factory, which was published in last month, I just got this watch. Before V3, VS has published the regular weight version and V2 increased weight version of this Daytona, the V2 has a weight of about 160 grams, this V3 is heavier, which is 181 grams. Besides the weight, VS factory also made other improvements on this replica watch. This Daytona is also made by BT and ZF, but not as good as this V3 from VS.
On V2, VS increased the weight of the case, on this V3, some people said VS added extra weight on the bracelet, but I think they have not. As far as I know, the main weight is added on the case and movement holder. The inner material of the case is mostly likely the tungsten steel, although VS has never publicly admitted it. Some factory added too much weight on the case back, the result is the case has been thickened, but on this V3 version, the case thickness is still 12mm.
On this V3, the factory also improves the golden color on the whole watch, the gold tone looks very close to that of the 18K yellow gold on the genuine watch. Also on the dial, the green color is also improved, it does not look too bright, when you swing the watch, the sunburst finish on the dial looks greenish-gold. The solid central shaft of the hands is very close to that of the genuine watch.
On the case, there is another place which I think is better than the one made by other factories, that’s the engravings on the back of the lugs. Some factories use too much tungsten steel in the case when making this Daytona, and when they make the engravings on the lugs, they can not make the engravings so clear and clean. However on this V3 Daytona from VS Factory, the engravings on the back of the lugs look very clear and clean, without any blurring, especially the Dog’s Head hallmark. Anyway, these lugs’ engravings are much better finished by VS Factory.
Conclusion
This V3 Daytona from VS is 181 grams, genuine watch is about 205 grams to 208 grams, so there is still about 25 grams weight difference. Some other factories make this watch with a heavier weight, which is more than 210 grams, but weight does not mean everything, we need to check the other details, while the overall finish on this replica Rolex Daytona from VS is much better, so I think VS is the best choice for this Daytona.
On the picture above, this is a section of links I removed from a Day-Date made by some factory, the Day-Date and Daytona made by them have the heaviest weight, but the links on the bracelet are not good, you can clearly see the crack and the links are not fully plated with gold. You need to be very careful when choose a high-end replica Rolex watch with increased weight.
Do you still remember OR? This factory has been closed for years, now they just announced that they have been back to the business. What products they made before? Do you still remember? I think some of you guys still remember their Seamaster, yes, they competed with VS factory in Omega Seamaster before, but their Omega Seamaster did not gain much recognition at that time, on the other hand, their Breitling and Jager LeCoultre Moon Phase were successful, but sold under the name “GF”, GF and OR refer to the same factory. Now this factory has been back, you can buy their Breitling, Seamaster and Jaeger LeCoultre Moon Phase. The most famous watches from OR(GF) in the past are the two below.
Several days ago, OR Factory published the following Seamaster 300m replica Omega watch, with a newly developed movement. Actually at the same time, VS also published this Omega Seamaster watch, I have seen a lot of reviews online about this watch, many reviewers said the one from OR is better than the one made by VS, I share the pictures of the OR Factory Seamaster first, and then make a simple comparison between them.
The pictures of the OR Factory Seamaster
The movement clone 8806 developed by SH has beautiful fish scale pattern polishing on the base plate, there is also engraving of Omega logo.
The orange rubber band comes with a clasp that is the same as the genuine, this watch from VS has a pin buckle.
The pictures comparison on this Seamaster between VS and OR
The left watch with “A” sticker on the crystal is made by VS. The right watch is from OR Factory. The watch from OR has a sapphire crystal with a blue anti-reflective coating effect.
The crystal on OR Seamaster stands a bit higher.
The Omega logo on the clasp, I found the logo on OR Seamaster looks better.
Original Omega 8806
The movement comparison. The left one is from VS made by DD, the right one is from OR made by SH, the bottom one is an original Omega 8806 calibre. The red color of the “OMEGA MASTER CO-AXIAL 8806” is different, on VS 8806 movement, the red color is brighter, while on OR 8806, the red engravings on the auto rotor look thinner, but its color is closer.
Conclusion
This Seamaster from both VS and OR is good. In some details, OR Factory does better. The clone 8806 movement in both watches has a high stability.
I introduced the golden Vacheron Constantin Historiques 222 in last year and it caught a lot of attention, please check that review at https://www.susanreviews.com/2024/02/02/v9-factory-replica-vacheron-constantin-historiques-222-yellow-gold-watch/, many readers commented on that article and said they want to buy one. It is a good replica watch and a lot of people show a great interest on the watch, but not too many people are willing to pay too much on this watch. In the past, two or three factories are making this replica watch, they are selling the watch at a high price, but the flaws on the watch are also obvious, the replica VC 222 made by them are much better than the AAA replica, but can not be called super clone. I think this is the reason why they do not buy the watch, they are too obsessed with super clone watches, they insist on buying nothing but super clones. Today, I will introduce a blue Vacheron Constantin Historiques 222 replica watch made by another factory, which is PPF, also called ZF, the watch has a blue dial. PPF made a lot of good quality replicas watches, the most famous are the Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 and 5712. About this new VC 222 from them, it is also not a super clone, but very close to, it is much better than the VC 222 made by other factories.
Why does PPF make the VC 222? Because they see a great profit the other factories are making on this replica watch, they are envious of them. With a high reputation accumulated in this industry, many customers will turn to buy this watch from PPF, and PPF is selling a much higher price than the other factories including MX and V9.
Please check the overall pictures and video of the watch first.
The case thickness is up to 8.5mm, which is slightly thicker than that of the genuine. The case diameter is 37mm, suitable for people with thin wrist, but the height from lug to lug keeps the watch from looking that small on your wrist.
The crown is not screwed down, this is correct, genuine watch’s crown is also not screwed down.
Compared with the VC 222 made by other factories, on the dial, PPF has Malte logo and solid center pinion that are closer to that of the genuine watch.
The date window is perfectly finished. The silver frame with round polished four corners that do not look sharp. The black oily printed date font has correct shape and is slightly raised.
A matte dial in blue, but the matte texture on the dial of the genuine watch is more obvious. There is a flaw on the dial, which is the color of the luminous material on hour markers, it looks slightly pink, which is different from that of the genuine.
The notches on the bezel are very close to that of the genuine, the bezel has very good finish.
On the corner of the case, the polishing is well finished, just like that on the genuine watch.
Advantages of the replica watch:
1.The Malte logo on the dial, case and crown is in correct shape, look very close to that of the genuine.
2.Case has perfect brushing finish, very good polishing on the edge and corner. Case is not too thick.
3.The bracelet has perfect brushing finish and enough flexibility to provide a comfortable fit on the wrist.
Shortcomings:
1.The color of the lume material is different.
2.The replica watch is equipped with a Miyota 9015 automatic movement. PPF added extra plate and made similar decoration. See through the crystal back, the gears on the movement do not work. The auto rotor is a little bit noisy. By the way, the stability of the movement is not a problem.
About OME, it has been a long time not to hear the news about this factory, last time, about several months ago, OME published a great replica Patek Philippe Nautilus 5712 and caught the attention of many watch fans, their Nautilus 5712 is indeed a very good replica, compared with the 5712 from PPF, OME version has better dial color, better moon phase, better hands and better movement engravings, they disappeared after selling this watch for a while, I do not know why they disappeared, now OME starts to accept orders and published the V2 edition of the Nautilus 5712.
For the V2, the change was made on the movement, please check the two places I mark in red, these are two differences between V1 and V2.
Golden tube around this ruby.
C-shaped opening in this place.
The movement plate has much deeper engravings than that of PPF 5712, and on this V2, the movement plate also looks brighter and cleaner.
However, now ordering a Nautilus 5712 from OME needs to wait for a bit longer than usual.
Next, let’s see the pictures of the Cubitus 5822P from OME.
This Cubitus 5822P is hot, many people already asked me if there is a super clone of it, before OME, P1 and PPF made this replica, PPF and OME use the same super clone 240 movement, but the movement from P1 is not close to the genuine movement, and their watch has a too high price. Like 5712, PPF also does not have a deep engraving on the movement plate, please check the picture below.
Look at this picture above, the movement plate has a very shallow engraving on PPF 5822.
Look at the movement on the 5822 from P1 Factory, the micro rotor’s position and balance wheel position are wrong.
