YL Factory New Replica IWC Big Pilot Le Petit Prince Annual Calendar Rose Gold Watch

YL factory makes good quality replica IWC watches like Z factory, while YL is not as popular as ZF because they do not make other brand replicas like Panerai, Tudor and so on. This IWC Big Pilot watch is introduced in the latest 2018 SIHH, it integrates all functions you want in a watch. Some people said there are too many windows on the dial, which have destroyed the balance of watch beauty, but I think it is more practical with these functions. On the replica, it has the same functions as real watch, month, date, week, power reserve, they are all real. By the way, the 7-day power reserve is working the same as genuine watch, but the replica does not have that long power reserve, the clone movement only offers 3-days power reserve capacity, but that has already been amazing for a replica, because in the past it is not able for a watch factory to make such a replica with a long power reserve due to technology limited.

The case is made of 316L stainless steel and then has 18K rose gold coating plated, the gold coating is thick, which is almost 5 mils. You must concern whether the rose gold coating will fade or not, I must say yes, even gold coating on genuine watches will fade, but on the replica, it will keep its gold tone after two years of wearing, that’s enough for us. The case has a very big diameter, which is 46mm, even though the case is brushed very well, but check its case edge, it does not feel as smooth as replicas made by ZF. The back is see-through crystal, which uses sapphire like the crystal on the front.

The dial is in blue color, looks very charming. Amazong all IWC Le Petit Prince models, the one with blue dial is the most popular. Like the case, hour markers and hands all feature rose gold edge. Both subdials have refined circles, the small second hand is runniong on subdial at 9 o’clock. The subdial at 3 is an indicator that is displaying the remaining power reserve. It is marked with 7 DAYS, but the replica has 3-day power reserve. At 12 o’clock, there is a fan-shaped indicator that features three small windows, which displays month, date and week separately. The Annual Calendar function just works the same way as genuine watch. To get a better readability, the replica not only has big hour markers, it also has genuine Swiss lume material applied on markers and hands.

The movement is a clone IWC 52850. Look at the auto rotor, it is in golden and the prince is standing on his planet, and the planet will rotate as long as you shake your hand. The movement is decorated beautifully, base movement plate has polished Geneve Stripes. Each plate is cut well and molded carefully by watch master, so they could maintain the stability and accuracy of the movement. By the way, the replica IWC Le Petit Prince is fitted with a brown leather strap.

Another Great Work From MK Factory – Replica IWC Pilot Mark XI with Green Nylon Strap

IWC Pilot Mark XI Replica

IWC Pilot always attracts me by their military watch outlook. And among all Pilots watches, Mark series is the most popular. On our market, there are two main factories that are replicating IWC Mark watches, they are MK and V6. Maybe you have bought good quality ones from other small factories, but I have to say they are not in top quality, the best Mark series replicas must come from MK and V6. Actually one friend of mine introduced the Mark XVI replica made by MK factory before on his website at Susanwatches.ru. And now the watch has become a best seller once being introduced on his site. Besides Mark XVI, there are other models that are also perfectly cloned, including Mark XVIII and XVII. Today, I went to our watch market again, and found a new art work on the storefront of MK factory, it is IWC Mark XI, firstly I was attracted by its green nylon band. I love watches with nylon strap. When I checked it carefully, I found its dial design is distinctive, Mark XI has an unique dial that is different from other Mark models. And the green nylon band and unique dial design make Mark XI so special among those watches in MK factory store. So I borrowed this replica watch from the factory and took some photos to share with you guys.

MKF IWC Mark XI Replica Watch

Let us see the dial first. It is in black white white markers and printings. Hands are completely different other IWC Mark series’. Have you noticed the hour hand, it is reverse. Hour markers use Arabic numbers except a big triangle mark at 12 o’clock. Date window is set at 3 o’clock, on the left side of the 3:00 hour marker. The dial also has other subtle difference if you compare Mark XI and Mark XVII or XVIII. Green nylon band is also one highlight. Nylon strap is a great match for the watch, it is perfectly in line with the military theme of the watch. One pair of distressed leather band could also create such effect, but a modern alligator leather strap will not.

Case is made of 316L stainless steel and brushed. It is measured to be 40mm in diameter. From side view, the case has a nice arc degree, so this ensure the watch could fit your wrist perfectly. Crown uses screw-in construction like genuine and there are delicate engravings. On solid case back, there are six notches that are exclusive to IWC Mark series. Great polishing work you can see on the back. Opening the case back, you will find a soft iron cage that is antimagnetic between case back and movement, which is the same as genuine Mark XI. By the way, the bracelet is polished beautifully. The front face is brushed while its edges are polished. There are also “IWC” on the front and other engravings on back side. The buckle pin is polished. Now at last, the watch specification will be listed below:

ZF Replica IWC Spitfire

IWC Pilots series sells very well among sports watches, while Spitfire has earned a lot of praise because of its design inspiration and special usage, we all know the purpose IWC made this watch for. However, nobody expected it raised a sales storm after the release of Spitfire, it is highly welcomed in a lot of pilots watch fans. Now the following is a replica of Spitfire IW387804, the watch is a combination of all advanced technology used in replica watches. Besides using the same watch material as genuine, Z factory almost spent three months in the movement to improve its stability.

Replica IWC Spitfire Grey

The dial is in dark grey and got its design idea from the dashboard on Spitfire. So is the replica. Case diameter is 43mm, so the dial looks big. With a sloping inner bezel and sunk subdials, the whole dial looks very three-dimensional. 60-second small dial positioned at 6:00 is for small seconds display, top subdial at 12:00 is for minute chronograph. Small second hand is in striking red. There is a fan-shaped window at 3:00 with a triangle mark that is pointing at current date. White lume is applied on hour markers at 12, 3, 6 and 9, so are on hands.

Like case, the bracelet is also made of solid 316L stainless steel, it contains five sections of links. The clasp is so special because it has unique fish-scale patterns, we call them Geneva Stripes that were only found on movement plates before. Deployant buckle has a polished square metal part that has engraving “IWC”. Inside the case, it is a Valjoux 7750 movement, well it is a cloned one, not real Swiss ETA 7750. But the factory used a Shanghai chronograph movement to clone this 7750 movement, if you know something about Shanghai Watch Factory, you will learn that Shanghai 7750 is the most stable chronograph movement used in replica watches. At last, let’s check the watch specification of this replica.

Replica IWC Portuguese Stainless Steel Watch

Replica IWC Portuguese IW371445 White Dial

IWC watch is always famous for its thin, big dial and elegant design, every gentleman likes to own at least one IWC watch. Z factory has been tried hard to released different editions of replica IWC Portuguese Chronograph IW371445. And they are getting better and better on everything, this time, Z factory engineers have been spending more than 18 month to do this V6 edition and I think this is the best edition that I have ever seen out there from the market. Is there any difference between the original and V6 edition? Comparing the two, which are almost the same only some slight differences. Let’s have a careful look at it.

Replica IWC Portuguese IW371445 Case

Replica IWC Portuguese Sapphire Crystal

First of all, the case size is 40.9*12.3mm which is almost as the same the per original, not only because it is made out from a 1:1 case but also because the team conquer so many difficulties to develop a replica A79350 movement. Some editions are not able to do the same size case as original edition is because it is limited by the movement inside of it, some factories are not able to copy the original movement. Then let’s move to the dial, the craftsmanship and fine details are just the same as original. IWC’s logo is very clear, and the character size is the same as original, there is no difference by looking at it. The outside markers for chronograph second function is also copied greatly. The blue long needle is for showing chronograph second, and sub-dial at 12:00 position shows chronograph minute. Sub-dial at 6:00 position together with two hands in the middle to show the time. Time Markers are numeral. Look into carefully, even the axis to hold those three hands are done as well as per original, perfectly in details! Both V6 edition and original’s front glass are made of sapphire crystal, this is a easy job for ZF to follow. Look at the case side, no matter the polish or matt work, they are exactly the same as the genuine. On the crown and the buttons for adjust functions, they are looking the same in shape and engraving logo on it, but V6 edition’s is painted with blue coating which is for protecting them from the scratch. For the strap, the original one is using crocodile leather, V6 edition’s standard strap is real cow leather but Z factory also offer crocodile leather with extra pay.

V6 Factory Published Replica IWC AquaTimer 2000 Ultimate Edition

IWC AquaTimer 2000 Replica

AquaTimer is a great collection of IWC, it belongs to the diving watch series of IWC, actually, AquaTimer had become a famous diving watch a long time ago, it was the first batch of professional diver’s watches released in watch industry, and has made a great contribution in the development of diver’s watches. In recent years, it seemed like IWC has ignored the research and development of AquaTimer series, because there were no attractive and striking models added to their AquaTimer collection in SIHH each year. About this replica IWC AquaTimer 2000 I am going to introduce today, its genuine watch was the latest model in 2016, but still not a big surprise to us. In my opinion, IWC added too many modern elements into the design of this AquaTimer, although the watch is full of modern and high-tech sense, it has lost its original taste – that’s the favor we could find in all old AquaTimer models. I think IWC has put too much focus on their Pilot series.

IWC AquaTimer 2000 Black Dial

The biggest difference between modern AquaTimer and previous AquaTimer watches lies in their bezel design. I more prefer the two color black and yellow bezel of old AquaTimer models. Here, let use be back to the replica we are discussing, it is the latest work from V6 factory, which has expanded their watch business into every Swiss brand. V6 factory published a lot of high quality replica watches in 2016, among them, Omega Spectre is the one that gained a great success. Now this IWC AquaTimer replica is made of 316L stainless steel in case and bezel, it looks very strong and tough. The bezel has grooves so it is easy for the wearer to catch even when their hands get wet. The dial has two levels, it has a great 3D visual effect. Hour markers, hands and diving scales on outer bezel are all applied luminous material.

IWC AquaTimer 2000 Crown

The replica watch is equipped with one pair of black rubber strap, different from the rubber on Hublot and other brand watches, this rubber strap has woven pattern on, which looks very unique. Finally, the replica is equipped with a Miyota 9015 movement, you know, Japanese movement is better than those clone Chinese automatic movement, it has a very low repairing rate.

Although the replica AquaTimer has lost its original favor as a diving watch, I still recommend it to you guys who need a big and high quality watch.
