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.
IW389001 is in whole black, including the dial, it is the model I prefer. While IW389002 has a green dial. There is one little difference between the two watches on the dial, that is IW389002 has a red circle on the center of the dial to display 12 hours. Two subdials are positioned at 12 and 6 o’clock. The subdial with a small red hand is small seconds subdial, while the subdials at 12 o’clock have two small dials in sunken design, the outer one is 60-minute chronograph counter, while the inner one is 12-hour chronograph counter. All hour markers are in white, the markers at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock are applied with luminous material, they will emit a strong green light at night.Compared with the green dial of IW389002, I like the black one of IW389001 more. It has a match of white details in blackground, which greatly increases the dial readability. Black looks cooler too.
In 2008, a small factory cloned IWC Big Pilot, whether its appearance or movement, it has a large gap with genuine watch, the power reserve is faux. After seven years, Z factory built this Big Pilot again, they updated the dial and movement construction, even the power reserve is real, which was increased from 42 hours to 12 hours. Big Pilot is one of the most classic series of IWC, the genuine watch is also sold at a high price, so, to have such an 1:1 replica is a dream of many people. Here I will give a review of Big Pilot IW500901 replica watch, which is a great timepiece with perfect function and closest movement.Big case is brushed and almost has 47mm in diameter. The Pilot watch has a common case design that is similar to dress watches, its dial completely shows every thing clearly in front of your eyes. Seeing from the side of the case, you will find out the difference between 1:1 replica and those cheap replicas. The replica IWC is polished well, especially its bezel, it has a polished silver edge that looks like a mirror. The streamlined design of the case ensures a great fit to your wrist. Please check some photos below, the crystal reflects a little hue when under a certain angle, this indicates the sapphire crystal has a layer of anti-reflective coating. So the dial is very clear even under the sun light, it seems like the crystal is invisible.
