Looks-wise, the watch that comes the closest to an all-steel model is now the ref. 116509, which is cast in solid 18k white gold and has the price tag to prove it.That means a delve into the archives is the only avenue still open should you want one, and it is the previous generation that is proving the most affordable. The ‘Zenith’ Daytona ref. 16520, powered by the fabled El Primero, is still the gateway into steel Cosmograph Daytona ownership.Of course, the word ‘affordable’ is all relative. Prices start at around the $20,000 mark, which is a hefty slice of anyone’s money. Yet beyond being one of the most handsome and capable models ever made, any Rolex Daytona represents perhaps the surest investments watch collecting has to offer.It’s a tough call, but the starkly austere Explorer might well be the watch that has changed the least (visually) over its 70-year run. That is even for a manufacture that updates aesthetics at the glacial pace that Rolex does. Every reference, from the prototype Pre-Explorer ref. 6150 from 1952 up to the last of the ref. 114270s in 2010, have been simple three handers, with the beautifully legible white on black 3/6/9 dials, housed in a 36mm case.Then along came the ref. 214270, identical in the detailing but the first example to grow beyond the dimensions in 58-years, measuring 39mm. It increased in size for the same reason as the Datejust – fashions demanded it – but unlike that watch, it became the only option available.That is no bad thing. The Explorer is perhaps the last of the true tool watches in the Rolex catalog. There is nothing about any iteration of the watch that is designed to look flashy or draw attention to itself, and a few extra millimeters doesn’t change that. The new Explorer is basically the old Explorer, and whichever you choose will come down to whether your wrist size suits one or the other.Its strength has always been in its simplicity, and it remains one of the best value for money prospects on the pre-owned Rolex market. $5,000-$6,000 is the buy-in point for a well set up example of the ref. 114270 or, if you fancy going the real vintage route, the celebrated ref. 1016 (personal timepiece of James Bond author Ian Fleming) starts at a little over twice that. Tough, elegant and perfectly built, the Explorer has always stayed true to Rolex’s roots.
First, its size is 40.9mm×12.3mm, which can satisfy your requirement in sense of beauty. It is a little big with such diameter, and it is thinner than other normal wrist watch. Using such different size proportion really can give us special feeling in vision. And such unique style is almost revealed in every design details perfectly. Its case was made of solid 316L stainless steel, which is so delicate and bling in appearance. Combining with the scratch-proof sapphire crystal, it is so perfect collocation that has reflected its skillful craftsmanship fully. And also reflects the extraordinary temperament of wearer at the same time. Its dial uses black color, which can highlight its elegance and nobleness. What’s more, It’s markers are in golden, really a good matching with its black dial. It can be more lived with such decoration. Gold and black as main color in the whole, it reveals the style of gentleman. As we all known, In China, gold color means noble, which is only used for king in ancient age, and most of us still has this feeling now.
The crown logo on the buckle is not as good as gen. Movement and Crown Brand-new original ETA 25J movement, the replica Rolex Yacht-Master can be equipped with 2824 or 2836 movement, its daily inaccuracy is less than 5 seconds.SuperLume Dial and Hands The lume color has no difference between hour markers and hands.Having introduced several pieces of vintage Rolex replica watches here, and some has won the praise, especially the Daytona Paul Newman. This time I will share another vintage Rolex here, it is Milgauss 6541 replica. Genuine watch was published by Rolex in the 50s, although not as popular as other vintage models like Paul Newman, GMT 1675, Submariner Vintage 5510 and other vintage PAMs. My watch supplier told me that all vintage Rolex models in our market are manufactured by the same factory, including this Milgauss 6541, which has attracted me due to its special dial details.It is not a replica that should be called a super clone like other replicas made by Noob, J12 and V6, but I love it just because of its retro style and some special symbols. Case is 38mm in diameter, black bezel has a big triangle mark in orange color at 12 o’clock, there are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 digits and triangle markers all in white. The bezel could be unidirectional rotating. Dial is black and has special patterns, all hands are in silver tone, unique lighting second hand has a red tip that is very eye catching. Three-dimensional silver triangle marker at 3, 6 and 9, other hour markers are all yellow dots. The word “MILGAUSS” under Rolex Crown Logo is in orange color, which exactly matches the orange triangle bezel marker. I can not check how close the replica is made to genuine, but I already has all necessary features of those vintage Milgauss watches produced in that period. If you are a collector of vintage Rolex and hard to find a genuine Milgauss 6541, this one could become a perfect alternative.The replica uses a clone ETA 2836-2 automatic movement, here I made a movement test, see the result on the photo below, it said that there is only one second error each day, and the beating frequency is also the same as genuine ETA 2836-2 movement, which is 28800vph. In a word, this replica not only does well in acting as a vintage Milgauss 6541, but also offers the wearer accurate timing. It is worth buying.Today, I am about to introduce one Panerai replica watch that is engraved with Florentine motifs. Yes, it is the latest Luminor 1950 Firenze 3 Days, with a reference PAM 972. This is not the first PAM which Panerai published with Florentine motifs on case and movement. We know that PAM 604 and PAM 672 also have these special engravings, but these two PAMs are Radiomir limited editions. For PAM 972, it is absolutely the first Luminor watch with Florentine motifs. Now, in Panerai watch family, PAM 972 is also the only one Panerai Luminor watch with such unique engravings. Based on the traditional PAM 372, Panerai made this engraved version PAM 972. The replica PAM 972 Firenze here is made by V9, which is a new factory. It is said that this V9 factory now makes the best Rolex Submariner replica watches, but I do not think so. However, this Panerai Luminor Firenze PAM 972 replica made by V9 has a good quality.I do not know why Panerai makes these special engraved PAMs, whatever, the main purpose I think is to show respect to Firenze, which is the design inspiration of early Panerai watches. Actually the design concept of many modern Panerai models is also coming from this old Italy city.
However, the dials of the gold Sub were not the standard black dials of their stainless steel counterparts.A few years later, around 1971, Rolex offered another colorway of the yellow gold Submariner featuring a bright blue bezel and dial. The yellow gold Submariners in blue also has the same “nipple dial” design. Particularly intriguing with the blue gold Submariner 1680/8 models is how the dials have transformed into different colors over time including lighter blues, vibrant purples, and rich reddish brown (also known as “tropical dials” in vintage Rolex terminology). Comparing the Rolex Submariner to the GMT-Master II.Two watches, perhaps the two most well-known in Rolex’s sports watch lineup, have amazing similarities, and one can be forgiven for confusing them at a distance. These two watches are, of course, the Submariner dive watch (ref. 116610) and the GMT-Master II (we’ll call it the GMT for short, but we’re talking about the current ref. 116710).The Submariner GMT Master Comparison .The individual histories of the Submariner and the GMT are well documented elsewhere, so let’s compare and contrast the two current models.First, the similarities. The Submariner and the GMT-Master II are luxury watches. Both watches are currently housed in the 40mm diameter so-called “super case” with a ceramic or Cerachrom bezel insert. This case, done in 904L stainless steel, debuted in 2007 with the GMT (the Submariner received the new case a year later). There are minute differences in the two cases, but you need to set them side by side and look very closely to see them.Both watches buckle to your wrist with the current Oyster bracelet.
The red triangle starts to move once you push the chronograph button. Rolex YachtMaster II 116688 Crown The Rolex replica watch is equipped with Swiss Valjoux 7750 chronograph movement, which means all movement components are assembled in Switzerland and then imported to China by the factory, this type of movement is different from the Asian clone 7750 movement, this one uses original Swiss parts so it will work more precisely. Also the price is much more expensive. However, real Rolex fans who appreciate such replica will know it is worth the price. New V8 Rolex Submariner 116610 Replica Watch Published By Noob Factory Noob V8 Rolex Submariner Black Submariner 116610 is one of the best-selling Rolex watches, it also becomes the mostly replicated Rolex in our market. There are basically three factories Noob, BP and J12 that replicate Rolex Submariner 116610. Among them, Noob makes the best replica Rolex Submariner 116610. This factory has updated the watch several times, now, the latest model has become perfect, you do not need to say, a lot of readers asked me which watch is the best replica, from now on, this Rolex Submariner 116610 is the best one. It is undeniable that there are also many other good replicas such as PAM 441, PAM 111 and IWC Mark, but this replica Rolex Submariner 116610 uses the best watch material and is equipped with the most stable super clone 3135 movement. If you are searching for a replica that could last for several years, this watch is absolutely the best choice. V8 Rolex Submariner 116610 Black Noob factory firstly uses the highest grade of stainless steel in replica Rolex, yes, it is 904L, which is only used genuine Rolex watches. Now Noob imported this grade 904L stainless steel and used in the case finishing of the 116610, this is a great development, you can also called it another milestone in our replica watch industry. And I think we can do much better in the future, the replica Rolex will be exactly the same as genuine in some day. Because the case and bracelet are made of solid 904L stainless steel, the replica has the same weight as genuine 116610. The case is evenly brushed, with round edge that is smoothly polished, no uncomfortable feeling when wearing the watch. The bezel has a real black ceramic insert, platinum engravings have correct depth.V8 Rolex Submariner 116610 Ceramic Bezel On black dial, every one focus on three subtle features, which are dial lume, date font and etched crown. Yes, I have to say this replica has all these three features set correct. First, genuine Swiss Superlume material is applied on the hour markers, hands and pearl dot, the dial lume looks strong blue, long lasting. The dial lume color is the same as genuine Rolex Submariner. Second, the date window has black font in white background, the magnifier above the window is 2.5X, besides, date font has the same thickness of font on genuine model. The last thing you will concern is the etched crown, yes, at a certain angle, you can see the tiny crown in sapphire crystal at 6 o’clock.
The replica is made of 316L stainless steel that is imported from Germany. The case is 36mm in diameter, such size of watch is very suitable for men and ladies who own small wrist. Not like other Tudor Black Bay that features a green, red or a bi-color bezel, this Tudor replica watch has a pure stainless steel bezel that is smoothly polished, the lugs have a brushed surface with polished edge and side. The whole case is not only 1:1 replicated from original, it also has a perfect finish, so that you will get a very comfortalbe wearing.The dial is black, but it also has blue option. Silver snowflake second hand is a classic feature of Tudor. Hour markers and hands have silver edge and are filled with Swiss A grade Super-LumiNova C1. The dial looks very simple and it does not have a date window, means the watch does not have a date function. Well, the watch already has hours, minutes and hands, these functions are very enough for me, about the date, it is not necessary for me, and for a replica, the movement will be more stable and durable if it does not have a date function.Besides its super dial lume, just seeing from its case and bezel design, the replica Tudor watch does not have any sports features, if somebody is willing to buy it, I think he just wants to use it as a dress watch, however, the tan color leather band adds some sporty style for the watch, it looks like Panerai’s ASSO leather band. The back side of the band, I mean the side that contacts your wrist skin, is made of calf skin leather that feels very soft. It is exactly this grey leather band that increases the sporty temperament of the replica watch.It is a long time to wait for this replica Rolex Daytona to arrive, but fortunately I was very surprised by its super quality and finish.
I like this type of YachtMaster Rolex, its ocean blue color attracts me. There was one YachtMaster II replica in full stainless steel published several years ago, it was highly welcomed and has driven a crazy sale record, now still a lot of people are pursuing the white steel YachtMaster II. About this two tone model, although not my favorite, it is still a great replica watch.Rolex YachtMaster II 116681 Blue There are blue, rose gold, red, white and black colors gathered on this watch. Bezel tooth, case buttons and middle links of bracelet are all plated with rose gold. Blue bezel insert is ceramic made with golden engraving. On white dial, the blue small second hand is running on subdial at 6, this subdial is in rose gold color with black markers. Square hour markers have golden frame with white luminescence filled inside. Hour markers, hour and minute hands will emit strong blue light in dark place. The big triangle hand on the centre is for countdown function, but on this replica, this feature is false, that means this triangle red hand is not working. That’s reasonable, because this replica is only equipped with a Shanghai 7750 chronograph movement.Rolex YachtMaster II 116681 Buttons Specification of Rolex YachtMaster II 116681: Movement: Shanghai 7750 Chronograph, 28800VPH Case: 44mm*14mm, 18K Two Tone Plated on 316L Steel, Blue Ceramic Bezel Crystal: Sapphire Dial: White Band: Two Tone. 18K Rose Gold Plated. New Rolesor Deployant Clasp Water Resistant: 50m Replica Rolex Daytona Two Tone Watch – The Luxury Classic in Sports Rolex Daytona Two Tone Watch Replica J12 Rolex Daytona In my opinion, among all Swiss watches, Daytona is considered to be the only luxury sports watch made with precious metals. Other pure sports brands like Hublot and Tag Heuer do not have such noble temperament. Lots of people, including women, like Daytona very much, not only because it is a Rolex watch, but Daytona also matches all kinds of suits well. Rolex is the dream watch, but even the entry-level Air King is beyond affordability of most people, so don’t say the more expensive Daytona. However, here is a chance to get a replica Rolex Daytona watch, which is a perfect alternative of genuine because the replica is well finished and comes from a big factory here named J12, so there is no need to worry about its quality because such grade of replica in our market is the most sought after watch, it can last for years with proper maintenance. JF Rolex Daytona Replica Rolex Daytona Black Dial You guys who seek for Daytona replica watches will doubt its chronograph function, but the chronograph is real, and it works exactly like genuine Daytona watch. About movement, the replica is equipped with an Asian Valjoux 7750, it is actually a Chinese chronograph movement, based on Shanghai 7750, which is installed in high end chronograph replica watches.
VR Factory offers two movement options, one is Sea-Gull 2824, the other is genuine ETA. The following photos show you two Submariner, one is with black dial and black ceramic bezel, the other is with blue dial and blue ceramic bezel.BL Factory Replica Rolex Daytona 116520LV – Green Lizard in the Rain Forest Replica Rolex Daytona 116520LV, has Rolex ever released this Daytona watch? I searched on Google and found all result pages saying this is a replica. So, I think that Rolex did not make this watch at all, it only exists in replica watch world, just like Daytona II and Sea-Dweller D-Green, I do not know why our watch factories made these replicas whose genuine models do not exist. Whatever, they have rich imagination. Let’s back to this Daytona replica watch, we call it a green lizard because the watch features a green ceramic bezel and green subdials on the white dial. The replica Rolex Daytona is made by BL, which is a very small factory in our market, now they made this Daytona that is unknown in genuine watch field, I think they have some creativity. Maybe next time they will bring us another unexpected surprise.Replica Rolex Daytona Green Replica Rolex Daytona Green Ceramic Bezel Why did BL factory name this Daytona 116520LV? I think they refer to the name of another Rolex watch, that is Submariner 116610LV, which also has a green ceramic bezel. This greey Daytona has a 40mm case that is measured to be 15mm in thickness, it is made of 316L stainless steel, not 904L stainless steel. I just posted the watch review on my blog and has not sold one, so if the watch has a good response from the market, maybe BL factory will upgrade the case steel material to 904L. Look at the photos, the case has a brushed face alternated with polishing. You can not operate the chronograph buttons unless they are unscrewed. Unfortunately, the back side of the lugs does not have engravings, while each genuine Rolex watch has, now you can see this tiny feature on the latest Daytona replica watches from Noob factory. Replica Rolex 116520LV Left Case Replica Rolex Daytona Crown and Chronograph ButtonsThe dial is white, three white subdials have green circles with silver white markers. The three small dials work accurately, they are small seconds hand at 6 o’clock, 30-minute chronograph counter at 3 o’clock and 12-hour chronograph counter at 9 o’clock. I think it will be more popular if the watch has a full green main dial with three silver subdials. Like other Daytona replica watches, this 116520LV also has luminous material being applied on hour markers, hour and minute hands.Replica Rolex 116520LV Case Back The bracelet is made of 316L stainless steel, it consists of three sections of links, the middle links are polished, which are contrasting with the brushed links at both sides. With a small screw driver, you can remove or install the links by yourself, it is very simple, just like you do it on a genuine watch. By the way, the replica watch is equipped with an Asia clone 4130 movement, which is based on a Chinese working chronograph movement.
The case is 44mm in diameter, it is made of Titanium, so the replica watch will feel very lightweight and comfortable to wear. Titanium case has black DLC coating plated, which makes the watch look tough. The bezel is anti-clockwise rotating, there is a lume pearl at 12 o’clock. Bezel markings are deeply engraved, the whole case and bezel are matt finished. About the crown, it is big and has square patterns on, so it is very convenient to rotate the crown to adjust time and date.Upon experience of H factory, ZF improved the dial on this replica Breitling Avenger to ensure it looks 100% the same as original. The metal Breitling logo on the dial is three dimensional, central second hand has a red tip that has an obvious look on this black dial. Date window is easily to be found at 3 o’clock because it has a red frame and white font in black background. Check photos below and compared them with genuine watch, could you please tell me how close the dial is?Black nylon strap perfectly matches DLC black case, each side of the band uses different material. The outside face is made of Nylon, while the inside uses black leather, such design on strap guarantees the greatest wearing comfort. Z factory also offers one pair of free camo leather straps for this replica watch. Here is the watch details:Movement: Swiss ETA 2814-2 Automatic, 28800bph, 25 Jewels Case: 44mm*13mm, DLC Plated Titanium, Uni-directional Rotating Bezel Crystal: Sapphire with AR Coating Dial: Black with Super Green Lume on Hour Markers and Hands Bracelet: Black Nylon Clad Leather Band with Tang Buckle Water Resistant: 50m
If you have ever bought one IWC Mark replica, you will know the best one is equipped with a ETA 2892 movement, so is this Mark XVIII. Other versions are not as stable as this one. The band also offer wearer the greatest satisfaction, because the outer material is nylon while the inner lining is black leather, there are some mysterious words on the leather lining like “BTAI” and “BTAN”, could someone here tell me the meaning of these words?For men, owning a dedicate wrist watch is like an amazing artwork in hand since its beauty is so unforgettable. Yes, now I am going to introduce a replica IWC Portuguese IW500705, it is really a classic artwork. It is the edition of V2S, its workmanship is almost perfect, and near original on the whole.
