Is this the first titanium watch made by Rolex? It is a popular watch and many people have asked if there is a super clone in the market. The first factory that made its replica is EW, several months ago, this factory was shut down, everyone knew the reason. Later a new manufacturer named EWE apppeared, does it have some relationship with EW? Maybe a new factory or still EW. Any way, before Clean, everyone chose this titanium YachtMaster Rolex from EWE. TW+ also made the replica, there are many factories using TW name, such as TWA, TW and TW+, I do not know what is the relationship between them, but they are not involved in manufacutring super clones, they provide cheap to middle quality replicas. For this titanium YachtMaster replica, EWE uses a Hangzhou 3235 movement, which has nearly 72 hours power reserve and is very reliable. The replica from TW+ is equipped with a Shanghai 3235, I am not sure if they are using the updated version released later. But in my memory, the Hangzhou 3235 used by EWE is good.

Back to the titanium YachtMaster 226627 made by Clean, it is fully made with titanium, so the weight is very close to that of genuine watch. With the Clean sticker on the bracelet and plastic cover, the replica has a weight of 109.6 grams, the genuine watch weighs about 107.4 grams. The replica is made with grade 5 titanium, it looks not that bright like stainless steel, this material is very hard, so it is a bit difficult to complete a very good finish on the case and bracelet, but Clean does a job work. Please look at the following pictures, on the enlarged picture of the bracelet, some brushed lines look coarser, but from a viewing distance, this is unnoticeable. On genuine watch, the brushing is also more obvious, but I think every brushed line has the same thickness. I do not think it will be a flaw for this replica watch.

On the bracelet, the engravings on the clasp are correct. But I found one tiny flaw on the clasp when it is closed. Look at the picture, the left metal piece stands slightly taller than the right metal piece, they are on the same horizontal line on the genuine watch. I do not know if all replicas of this watch made by Clean have this flaw, or just the one in my hand.

The case has a thickness of 11.89mm, less than 12mm. The tube of the pin that connects each link of the bracelet uses ceramic material, Clean claims this is also a feature on the genuine watch. The ceramic tube is highly scratch resistant and after a long time of wearing, the links can still locks firmly, you will not feel the bracelet becoming loose.

The movement inside is a SH3235, which is widely used by Clean in the Datejust, it is the new version of SH3235, Clean said it is also 72 hours of power reserve, but I said this is not true in another post. Well, because this movement has also been widely used by other factories, so I think its stability is acceptable.

The bezel insert is black ceramic in matt finish, which is in contrast with the bright polishing on the markers. The matt finish on the genuine is more obvious, while on the replica, it is more refined.

Overall, the finish of the Clean version absolutely better than that of the EWE model, but Clean also has a much higher price. Whether you buy from Clean or EWE, it will be a right decision.
