A lot of people – even seasoned collectors – can find themselves confused when trying to distinguish between original and authentic watches. The trick? Stop thinking of the words as synonymous. In this guide, you’ll learn about the big differences between these two categories of luxury watches and how it can help you be a more educated shopper and collector.An authentic watch is undisputed in origin, and not a replica or copy. This means that in order for something to be authentic, it has to be 100% real. Authentic watches are genuine pieces from brands – think of the big players like Rolex, Tudor, Omega, Patek Philippe and more.We use the word authentic in the industry to distinguish between genuine timepieces and fakes that are widely copied and sold. When a dealer gets their hands on a watch, the first thing they are going to do is check the authenticity of the watch; and as a buyer, you should be doing the same. As a buyer, the first step in guaranteeing you get an authentic watch is by always buying directly from the brand or a trusted and reputable dealer who can ensure that the watch is authentic.But how can you tell whether a watch is authentic? Well, we’ve created some great guides to help educate buyers and collectors – both on what’s real, and how to spot inauthentic details. Head over here to check out our official guide on the Top Ways To Spot A Fake Rolex.To be an original watch, the timepiece has to be an authentic watch. Because when you see a watch listed as original, it means that it is both a genuine timepiece from that brand, and one that has not had any later-era updates or alterations since it was manufactured and originally sold.Original watches are:Authentic Have not had parts replaced with later-era equivalents or been modified/altered in any way Sometimes in the industry, we also refer to original watches as ‘honest’ watches. And when we look at pre-owned timepieces – especially vintage watches, we often look for originality. This means we look for things like correct factory-installed parts, whether they’re scratched, chipped or faded.We also look for things like custom details that were added after purchasing, like diamonds or enhanced bezels which were later-era additions and unoriginal to the piece. There are even many buyers and collectors who will favor watches that have never had a polishing or servicing that could have hindered the natural aging process of the timepiece.
So, a lot of people who were Noob watch fans have turned to be clients of ARF. Today, I want to introduce two important Rolex watches AR factory just published several days ago, both are Datejust II models in 41mm, which is a trendy size in current watch industry. Two Datejust 2 watches have some common features, like genuine watches, the replicas are made of 904L stainless steel, and both feature a fluted bezel. The difference is that one is with a grey dial, the other is with a blue dial. I saw both watches and took these photos below, compared two of them, I like the Datejust II with grey dial more.About case, both are made of the latest genuine watch material 904L stainless steel, case is brushed, while the lugs are polished. The case finish is very good, which is the same quality level of Rolex made by JF factory. While I find one subtle flaw on the case, that is the back of lugs does not have engravings, while the replica Rolex made by Noob has. Compared replica Rolex watches between Noob and ARF, the quality of case finish of ARF is better than Noob, but if you do care about some detailed engravings, I suggest you buy from Noob. The fluted bezel is also made of 904L stainless steel, the tooth design on the bezel has the same size as that of genuine watch, the amount of bezel tooth is the same as original. The bezel fits the case body perfectly, so there is no gap for water penetration.About dial, the Rolex Datejust II 126334 replica has two options, grey and blue, I prefer the grey one, which looks more low-key, while the blue one looks more elegant. The grey dial matches the white stainless steel appearance better, the unique sunray polishing on the grey dial looks more obvious, I like such sunray polishing on the dial, it looks high quality. The inner bezel has Rolex’s famous rehaut engravings, which look exactly the same as genuine Rolex.
I believe that you have a overall look at the new replica IWC gentleman now, welcome to leave your comments or questions, would like to communicate with you.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.
Pilot is a popular series of IWC, and Pilot’s watch is loved by a lot of Swiss watch fans. IWC Pilot’s watch is divided into several branches, they are Mark series, Pilot, Spitfire and Big Pilot. Among them, Mark series and Big Pilot are most popular, while the Spitfire and Pilot chrono are also highly welcomed. I read some history of IWC before, it said that the design of Pilot’s watch got inspiration from the fighter in the Second World War. So I know why there is an airplane sculpture on the case back of some IWC Pilot’s watch, especially on the Spitfire. Today, the IWC Pilot watch I am going to introduce is a limited edition model, it says “150 Years” on case back, does this mean that this model is produced to commemorate the 150th anniversary of IWC Pilot’s Watch? Anyone who knows can tell me about this. The reference number is IW377725, it is limited 1000 pieces in quantity, while you can get this replica watch at any time, its stocks will last for a long time, Z factory offers us a big inventory. Yes, the replica IWC Pilot watch I am going to talk in the following article is made by Z factory, which also named ZF, some website wrote its name “ZF factory”, whatever, they are all correct names. If have ever read my articles, you will know ZF makes the best replicas of IWC, Tudor and some Panerai watches. Now, this Pilot Chrono 377725 is the latest addition to their big IWC replicas family.
The Daytona is equipped with an Asian clone ETA 7750 movement, which means Noob factory used a Chinese chronograph movement as a base movement, then modified its plates and rotor according to genuine ETA 7750, although the fake 7750 is not as accurate as genuine, the price of the replica tells you everything, besides, I have tested the movement with professional device, the inaccuracy is within 5 seconds each day.Overall, 116509 is the best-selling one among all stainless steel Daytona watches, and I never sell low quality and defective replicas to you.I introduced several Daytona watches on my site, there are steel Daytona, Rainbow Daytona and the most popular vintage Paul Newman Daytona, I like Daytona watch because it is the only Rolex that not only features sporty style but also made of precious metal. Rolex Daytona watch could fit your any types of dresses, like business suits or sports clothing. Many watch fans prefer those Rolex watches with steel bracelet, but I think the one with rubber band is also attractive. I prefer wearing Daytona watch, it is very convenient for me when I am doing some sports, the chronograph function is specially designed for those sports lovers who like competition. Today, I will introduce another fusion art, although many people Hublot is more worthy of this title, this Rolex Daytona is a good combination of precious metal and rubber material. This watch I am going to introduce in the following is Rolex Daytona 116518LN replica, it uses four materials, which include stainless steel, yellow gold, ceramic and black rubber. Now, let’s read its specification first.Replica Rolex Daytona 116518LN Movement: Clone Rolex 4130. Fullly functional Chronograph like real Rolex Daytona Case: 40mm*13mm. 18K Yellow Gold, almost 5 mils on 904L Stainless Steel Bezel: Black Ceramic Bezel Insert Crystal: Sapphire. Etched Rolex Crown at 6 Dial: Gold Color Band: Black OysterFlex Rubber Strap with Flip Lock New Style Clasp Water Resistant: 100m Replica Rolex Daytona Gold Watch.First, I must see it is a dream watch for many Rolex fans because the replica watch uses a lot of high-tech watch materials. The case is made of solid 904L stainless steel, you know, 904L steel is only used on genuine Rolex before, but now AR factory uses this steel material on replica Rolex, this is a great breakthrough in fake watch industry. There is a thick layer of 18K yellow gold on the case, it is about 5 mils, the wrapped gold coating, which will not fade easily, I have to say the gold coating will not be worn even after three years of wearing.
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.
