Clean Factory – Susan Reviews on Replica Watches

Replica Rolex Daytona: 126518 vs 116518

Before showing you the pictures of comparison between Daytona 126518 and 116518, I would like to announce a good news from BT factory, which is they have lower down the prices of their Daytona replica watches, I do not know why they take this action, they want to beat Clean and gain more customers with this method? This is a wrong action, they can not beat Clean by this way. Customers do not mind spending $50 or $60 more to get a better super clone Rolex. Actually BT factory can win more customers if they make a better ice blue Daytona 126506 with crystal back, currently Clean does not make this watch and the one made by QF is not a super clone, many watch fans like this Daytona, this is really a opportunity for BT.

Well, back to our today’s topic, let us see the comparison pictures between 126518 and 116518, both are made by Clean. Many people including me did not like the new Daytona watches when Rolex just published them, but now I love them, especially the two models with black rubber band, the more times I see, the more I like them. Besides Clean, ZF and AR+ also published the replicas of the new Daytona, however, ZF made a wrong case, AR+ uses a not good movement, I have explained what real movement inside the AR+ Daytona. For a super clone with correct case shape, good dial details and good clone 4131 movement, currently the only trusted source is Clean.

Shanghai 4131 Movement vs Dandong 4130 Movement:

C+ Factory V3 Rolex Pepsi GMT

I would not have expected that C+ factory will survive in the market for such a long time, it seems like a lot of people are buying from them. Sometimes if ordering from Clean factory takes long, som people will turn to buy from C+ factory, which always have stocks for many Rolex watches and won’t wait for too long. Most importantly, their quality is very close to that of Rolex made by Clean. I think the only difference lies in the movement, take this Rolex Pepsi GMT for example, Clean uses Dandong 3285 movement, while C+ uses Shanghai 3285. In the past, I thought Shanghai 3285 was not good, but it is also a good movement, many factories are using this movement and has been tested to be very stable. The power reserve is not as long as Dandong 3285.

C+ Pepsi Rolex GMT is a perfect alternative to Clean Rolex Pepsi GMT, Clean published the V3 edition in last year, and now C+ also uses the same ceramic bezel on their V3 edition. C+ sells the watch at a much affordable price. I have a complaint on Clean factory, they have published several editions of this replica in the market, including V1, V2, V2s, V3, every time they published the new version, they will increased its price, that’s not good, and therefore there are a lot of different versions in the market, customers are confused, they do not know which edition is the best. Some said V3 is the best, but recently Clean released V2+ edition that is improved upon V2, and they said V2+ has the closest bezel color to genuine watch, at least many reviewers have confirmed. What can I say? I am also a bit confused. If you are really going to buy V2+ edition, will the dealer send you the correct one? You need to consider a lot of things for buying just a replica.

New Daytona models from Clean factory

Now, all watch factories have been back from new year holiday for several days, just at the end of the holiday, Clean announced the release of four new Daytona replica watches, including 126500LN black and white, 126518LN, 126519LN. In 2023, ZF and AR+ have published the replicas of Daytona 126500LN, perhaps Clean felt the competition from them, actually they are not a threat to Clean because the Daytona from them are not good. Then how about the quality of the four new Daytona from Clean?

I never doubt the quality of Daytonas made by Clean factory, the bezel and dial details are better than other factories even they use the same Dandong 4130 movement. But how about the new Daytona from them? They are also much better than the ones made by ZF and AR+. Compared with ZF, Clean makes correct case shape and dial details, compared with AR+, the Shanghai 4131 movement is much better than the Dandong 4131 which AR+ uses. If you read my another post about the AR+ Daytona, you will know the real movement inside.

In the new Daytona, Clean uses Shanghai 4131 movement inside, it looks like that movement has a better decoration than the Dandong 4130, but its stability still needs time to be tested, after all, Dandong 4130 has been tested to be very stable for years. I heard a rumor that Clean is going to use Shanghai 4130 in their old Daytona models such as 116500, that will be bad if they abandon Dandong 4130. By the way, the ice blue Daytona with see-through crystal back is not available, many clients like this Daytona, but I think it will be available soon.

The development of Clean factory

I already talked a lot about Clean in my previous reviews of replica watches made by this factory, to know Clean factory better, please read this article.

Before the birth of Clean, the best Submariner replicas were made by Noob and AR, these two factories now have been closed. At that time, the Submariner made by Noob and AR has two big flaws, first, the tone of the bezel markers will fade, second, the green color is not correct. Someone who sold replica watches in the market saw a business opportunity that will earn a lot of money by making a better ceramic bezel for the Submariner. In 2019, he made one green ceramic bezel and sold it under name of “Clean”, immediately the green ceramic bezel became hot in the market, especially among the watch fans who did custom-made jobs, it is the first green ceramic bezel that has the closest green color to gen and has no-fade bezel markers. He earned some money by selling these bezels. At that time, Noob have been selling 4130 Daytona for some time, but their bezel on the Daytona is not very good, so a few months later, Clean made a ceramic bezel for the white Panda Daytona 116500LN. And at the same time, Clean published their first generation of Submariner and sold under name of “ZZF”. At that time, Clean could not compete with Noob and AR in the field of Submariner, later, Noob and AR also developed the ceramic bezel which they claimed won’t fade.

In the end of 2020, Clean announced the release of the GMT-Master replica watches with clone 3186 movement, but they did not sell them until the summer of 2021. In the whole year of 2019, it is the competition of Submariner between Noob, AR and ZZ, later, VS factory also published the Submariner with the latest Dandong 3135 movement, this movement is more stable and has fewer issues than the movement equipped in ZZF Submariner, even the Submariner from VS did not have the same good finish as the Sub from ZZF, especially on the hulk Submariner, the green color on the ceramic bezel is not as good as that on ZZF 116610LV, but with better movement and better quality control as well as higher reputation, VS still beat Clean and became the second big supplier of super clone Rolex Submariner, Noob occupied the biggest market share. Clean’s ZZF Submariner still not hot.

In the development process, Clean updated all their Submariner with the second generation of Shanghai 3135 movement, from that time, in the sales of Submariner, they decided not to use name “ZZF” any more, but use name “Clean” directly. The intense competition between Clean and VS started. During their competition, there was an interesting thing happend, VS found the factory that always supplied ceramic bezel for Clean. Later, VS developed Dandong 3235 movement and firstly equipped in the 42mm YachtMaster, and then equipped it in their 41mm new Submariner and Datejust. After seeing the fast development of VS, Clean took an action and developed a Shanghai 3235 movement, whose decoration is not as beautiful as Dandong 3235 movement of VS, the power reserve of Shanghai 3235 movement is about 45 hours, which is shorter than 72 hours on Dandong 3235 movement. At this time, Noob and AR could not follow the steps of VS and Clean, although they still have a large amount of customers.

In March or April of 2020, I can not remember exactly in which month, Noob and AR were forced to be closed because of the raid, and then VS was also closed. Now only Clean survived. Before this raid, Clean was absolutely not as famous as Noob, AR and VS, but the three actions Clean made next made them become the boss in the market. First, they accepted all orders of Dandong 4130 movement that were only supplied to Noob before, Clean started to sell the Daytona with Dandong 4130 movement in the end of 2021, their Daytona is much better than the one made by Noob before. Second, Clean decided to use the Dandong 3135 movement in their Submariner. From that time, Clean completely beat VS in 40mm Submariner. Third, about in 2022, Clean developed Dandong 3285 movement and continued to improve their GMT-Master replicas. Clean now is the boss in super clone Rolex, and VS can compete with Clean just because they still own the Dandong 3235 movement. Clean made a very quick success, besides the super quality, the luck also played an important role, I explained the “luck” factor in Clean’s development process in another post at https://www.susanreviews.com/2023/09/29/why-did-clean-factory-get-a-success-so-quickly/.

About 3K factory

Like Clean, 3K also does not have a long history in this industry, it has another two names, K3 and BT. Today, I will give a brief introduction of 3K factory.

In 2019, someone in Zhanxi market bought one Cartier Ballon Bleu replica from V6 factory, he was impressed by the quality and decided to make Ballon Bleu Cartier replica watches by himself, finally, the products came out and the quality is very good, the Ballon Bleu made by him has a very close quality to V6, he was smart, put the V6 sticker on each of his watches and then sell under the name of V6, but at a cheaper price, the result is he earned some money.

The super clone 4130 movement that was developed by Noob and a movement factory in Dandong was very popular at that time. He found this movement factory in Dandong and expressed his thought of wanting to develop a clone PP 324 movement. After half one year of researching, the first generation of clone PP 324 movement came out, which was then equipped in Nautilus 5711 and Aquanaut by WY-3K. But these Patek Philippe replicas equipped with the first generation of PP 324 has a few big issues like jumping seconds, date stuck, sudden stop and noisy auto rotor. Because of these serious problems, a lot of Patek watches were overstocked in their warehouse.

In the end of 2020, I do not remember exact time, they decided to re-study the PP 324 and wanted to solve these issues, then finally the second generation of clone PP 324 came out, which is also the final clone 324 movement you see in current 3K Nautilus 5711 and Aquanaut. The new clone 324 solved all movement issues mentioned above and it is more stable than the movement used in PPF Nautilus. Because of this movement, the case of Nautilus 5711 replica from 3K can be reduced to only 8.3mm, which is closest to gen thickness among all replicas. Afterwards, 3K factory continued to update the case shape of the Nautilus 5711, with the promotion of watch fans who did custom-made works on replica watches, the 3K Nautilus became popular quickly, and now more people are like to buy Nautilus 5711 replica from 3K, other than from PPF, except the blue/gray dial version.

Along with the closure of V6, 3K gained a large portion of the market that belonged to V6 before, then they started to compete with AF in the field of Ballon Bleu. And a branch of 3K, which was called K3, specialized in making ladies Cartier Ballon Bleu.

BT, which is another branch of 3K, makes good quality replicas of Rolex Daytona. Clean is not the only one factory that owns super clone 4130 movement developed by a movement factory in Dandong, BT and New Noob also has it. After the release of Daytona 116500LN by Clean, BT also published the replica Rolex Daytona 116500 white and black models, later Clean made several improvements on the Daytona bezel and dial, but BT also did, so I think the 116500LN Daytona from BT is also very good. Perhaps they wanted to beat Clean so urgently, so next BT published a series of Daytona models earlier than Clean, but the finish is not as good as the first two Daytona 116500LN watches they made before. Next Clean also published a lot of Daytona watches including the yellow gold one and white gold one with rubber band, which have a better quality than BT, so in the competition of Daytona between Clean and BT, BT is gradually at a disadvantage. However, their Daytona 116500LN, full stainless steel Daytona and ice blue Daytona are still worth buying.

This is the story about 3K factory.

Which factory makes the best gold Daytona 116518 replica?

About the gold Daytona 116518, there are several factories that are making its super clone, they are Clean, BT, Gold, APS, QF, New Noob, among these factories, maybe you are more familiar with Clean and BT, which are more mentioned when people talking about super clone Daytona. Gold and APS also make good quality Daytona replicas with increased weight, but they are using Shanghai 4130 movement, which is not as good as the Dandong 4130 equipped in Daytona made by Clean and BT. About QF, I heard very little about this factory, and about New Noob, I have introduced it in one of my articles before. Currently I only suggest you buy Daytona from Clean and BT. Many Franken watches are also customized on basis of the Daytona from them.

The gold Daytona 116518 is a very popular replica, both Clean and BT are make this model and form a direct competition, which factory makes the best one? I though BT makes this watch better before, but after watching a lot of video reviews on this replica watch, I changed my mind, Clean version is better, please buy with Clean.

Look at the pictures in the beginning of this article, do you know which one is from Clean?

First, I want to say the replica made by both Clean and BT has flaws if you compare them with genuine watch. The case has color difference, genuine watch uses real 18K yellow gold, the replica only has a layer of gold plating on the case, the gold tone on the replica looks brighter and more yellowish. The weight difference also exists, the replica is about 35 grams lighter than the genuine watch. The dial printings on genuine watch are better, especially the red “DAYTONA”, which has a thicker font on the genuine watch. I have seen the movement comparison between them and genuine, the decoration on genuine Rolex 4130 movement is better, and genuine Rolex 4130 movement has one feature that could not be found on Dandong 4130.

BT makes 116518 earlier than Clean, now the latest version comes to V2, on the V1, the gold on the case and dial is too yellow, BT has made the changes on the V2 edition, now the gold tone is very close to that on Clean. However, the dial color is still a little yellow. The dial color on Clean is closer to genuine, I think this is the biggest difference between BT and Clean. Which one will you choose if I put them together. Many videos reviews said the one made by Clean is the ultimate version, so I also recommend Clean even it has a higher price.

Except the dial color, I can not find other differences, can you? Which one is Clean and which one is from BT? Please comment below and share your opinions about the two replicas.

Clean V3 Pepsi GMT-Master

It has been less than a month since the release of V2 edition of Pepsi GMT-Master, now Clean just published the V3 edition of this watch in last week. I took some pictures of the V3 and some comparison photos between V2 and V3. Clean facotory also raises the price on the latest V3 edition.

Here come the pictures of the V3, the replica watch looks very nice, Clean has made several improvements on this replica, the biggest change lies in the movement, which is from 3186 to Dandong 3285. Then the color of the ceramic bezel was improved twice in recent two months. Do you like the latest blue and red color on the V3? The red color looks slightly brighter than that on the V2. I did not see genuine watch and do not know which color is more correct. By the way, now Clean only offers the latest V3 edition for this Pepsi GMT-Master.

The pictures of the V3 Edition Pepsi.

The comparison photos between them, the left watch is V3 edition, the right one is V2 edition.

When I light the bezel with a laser pointer, the red on the V3 edition looks more transparent. In the following three pictures, the right one is V3.

In the video, the right one is V3.

New Datejust from Clean

Now in super clones field of Rolex, the two giants are Clean and VS, the watches coming from Clean almost cover each series of Rolex, while VS also makes replicas of a lot of Rolex watches, but not including the Daytona. I hope VS factory can make Daytona in 2024, because I want to see what improvements can still be made on the Daytona.

The absolute advantage of Clean is its Daytona, BT still can not compete with them. The absolute advantage of VS lies in its Dandong 3235 movement, this is the key factor why VS still can compete with Clean in the Rolex replica field. Because of the Dandong 3235, many people have a buying misunderstanding, which is the watch is the best as long as it uses a Dandong 3235 movement, the Datejust is an example, but Clean also makes super clones of Datejust, I think both have the same quality level. Now the only problem is that ordering a Datejust from both factories will take a long time. Clean and VS have published a lot Datejust replica watches, but both factories only keep several popular models in stock. The following pictures show some new Datejust watches that were just published by Clean, but if you want to order anyone of them, I am afraid you need to wait for several weeks.

These new models are in two tone style, there are yellow gold and rose gold, the bracelet also has Oyster and Jubilee options, among them, I like the two with mother-of-pearl diamond dial and the one with light pink dial. They are perfect new year gifts for women who love big watches.

There are indeed differences you can see on the Datejust watches between VS and Clean, but I can not tell you which factory is the best because I have not seen genuine watches. However, for a specific model like black, blue or silver one, perhaps one factory does better in some details than the other factory, you need to ask advice from your dealer, but VS Datejust has a longer power reserve, which is about 60 hours, while on Clean Datejust, the power reserve is only about 40 hours.

Z Factory Replica Rolex Daytona 126500 with Shanghai 4130 Movement

Just several weeks ago, Z factory announced the release of the Daytona replica watches, are you familiar with them? The black one and white one, look like Daytona 116500, but the ones Z factory published this time are the replicas of the latest Daytona 126500 that were made by Rolex in 2023. The 126500 Daytona has some changes upon the previous 116500, but the replicas from Z factory are not good, I do not recommend.

Its quality is ok, but there are too many differences when you compare it with the genuine watch, and the differences are too obvious, I think it has a solid quality, 904L stainless steel, sapphire crystal and Shanghai 4130 movement, all these elements make it a high quality replica, but not a super clone in my opinion, no people will buy the 126500 from Z factory, especially at this moment when all people are seeking for perfection.

I just did some searches on the pictures of genuine Daytona 126500 and found the replica is greatly different from the genuine, first, its case shape is not correct on the replica, especially on the lugs, second, the most obvious flaw you can immediately noticed is its three subdials, which should be thinner and smaller, but Z factory uses the subdials that are in the same size as the 116500, that’s a big mistake, even the hour markers are thinner, but the subdial on the replica 126500 is a very obvious flaw. I do not think people will buy this watch.

Why did Z factory unveil this new Daytona 126500 so urgently? Because they want to make more money. We know Z factory makes some good quality replicas, such as IWC Portuguese, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15400 and 15500, Patek Philippe Nautilus and Aquanaut, etc., they make a lot of models, but today only several watches can earn money for Z factory, they are AP 15400, 15500 and Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711, while among these watches, Z factory is facing the direct competition from APS and 3K factory, so I think they earn much less money than before. So, Z factory need to open another project, actually they have such a plan several years ago, from the release of the replica Rolex Submariner, we can tell that Z factory wanted to enter into the Rolex field, then Z factory published the Daytona replicas, we can see they are very eager to make a success in Rolex field, but they failed. Nobody wants to buy Submariner and Daytona from Z factory in the past, and the latest 126500 replicas published by them this time are also bad clones.

Absolutely there will be super clones of 126500 Daytona in future, I think Clean or BT will release half a year later.

Clean Pepsi GMT V2

Today, I will show you some pictures and a video about the latest V2 edition of the replica Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi just published by Clean factory.

In the past, I always thought that Clean produces the best quality ceramic bezels used in replica Rolex watches including Submariner and GMT-Master II, actually I was wrong. We must admit that the green ceramic bezel used by Clean 116610LV is the best and has the most accurate color, but about GMT-Master II replicas, perhaps there are some other factories making better ceramic bezels than Clean. For example, my friend told me that the GMT-Master II Pepsi made by GS factory has a more accurate blue and red color. So, that also proves my opinion, which is no replica watch is perfect, if a factory focuses on the finish of specific parts and want them look closest to genuine, then some other parts may not be the best.

On the V2 edition of this Pepsi GMT with jubilee bracelet, the bezel was upgraded, we can see the last one picture and video, the left watch is V1, the right one is V2. We can see the bezel color changes under UV flashlight. I am not sure if this new bezel is made by Clean. The blue and red color on the V2 become dark, not that bright on the V1, a lot of people like the color change on the bezel, but some said it looks slightly purplish, they still prefer the color on the V1, what is your opinion?

The Pepsi GMT with Oyster bracelet now also upgraded to V2. The other GMT-Master II models from Clean do not have changes.
