In the past years, 3K Factory has dominated the market of Nautilus 5711 replicas with the super clone 324 movement, a lot of people directly ordered the Nautilus 5711 from 3K, some people, seeking superior quality, paid extra to replace its dial with SW dial, but this part of people also needed to order one Nautilus replica watch from 3K Factory first, and then do the dial modification. So, 3K was the only choice in the past. However, with the expiration of the exclusive movement agreement, now every factory can use this super clone 324 movement, just weeks ago, some new faces already appeared in the market and published the replicas Nautilus 5711, which were claimed to have better quality than 3K. These new faces include BBF, DDF and DF. Every of these new factories seem to know the weakness of the 3K Nautilus 5711, BBF is the most popular among these three, they did dial improvements, many reviewers said that BBF uses the SW Dial on 5711, actually this is not true, I compared both and found the difference between BBF dial and SW dial. DDF currently is doing upgrade on the watch and about to release the V2. While D Factory changed the movement and developed the free sprung balance, but with no weights. So currently the 5711 being mostly talked about is the one from BBF, many reviewers said it is much better than the one made by 3K.
Well, I do not agree. Perhaps in some details, BBF looks better, but a watch consists of a lot of parts that need to be assembled perfectly by an experienced watch master, BBF 5711 can not be better than 3K 5711 in every aspect, it is impossible. If you take both watches in hand and you will find some details on 3K are still better. A friend of mine also got BBF 5711 for his clients, but several his clients finally asked him to change to 3K 5711. So, sometimes when a factory said their watch is better than the one that has been in the market for years, do not rush to buy it, especially the watch from a new factory.
However, the appearance of these watches is a big challenge to 3K Factory. They will absolutely continue to make improvements on the Nautilus 5711, so currently it is not the right time to make the purchase, besides, I think 3K Factory will also improve the dial and movement engravings in future, if they won’t, they will lose this market, so I really expect a perfect version from 3K Factory.
The following pictures show the Nautilus 5711 from BBF.
