The Rolex Submariner has been a part of the Rolex catalog for well over 60 years. As expected, the famed dive watch has undergone plenty of design and mechanical enhancements over the past six decades, including the all-important timing bezel. Read on to discover all the different types of bezels of the Rolex Submariner.When Rolex debuted the Submariner in 1953, the stainless steel dive watch included a rotating bezel marked to 60 minutes to allow divers to track immersion times. The steel bezel turned both ways for simple timing adjusting, the edge of the bezel was knurled for easy gripping underwater, and the insert was fashioned from black aluminum.The printed 60-minute scale on the earlier versions included markings for every 5 minutes, alternating between batons and numerals. By the late 1950s, Rolex started to include hash marks for the first 15 minutes on the bezel followed by 5-minute markings.Around 1969, Rolex introduced the first yellow gold Submariner, the Submariner Date ref. 1680/8. Accordingly, the knurled rotating bezel was fashioned from 18k yellow gold. What’s more, the Rolex Submariner ref. 1680/8 now offered the choice of either a black or blue aluminum bezel insert and matching dial.
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.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.
Maybe they have already felt strong competitiveness from AR factory, if still can not bring us some big surprises, they will be completely defeated.Back to the V10 Submariner 116610LN and 116610LV. The biggest change is made on the bezel, which Noob factory claims that is could be interchanged with the bezel of genuine Submariner. The engraved depth of the bezel markers are the same as that of genuine Submariner, besides, the Platinum tone of the bezel markers will not fade as time goes by.About the movement, Noob offers two options, one is an Asia ETA 2836, the other is a Super Clone 3135. The latter one has the same time and date adjustment as genuine Rolex 3135 Calibre. Both have a high quality.Please read the following specification to know both watches better, and check a lot of photos below.

Rolex or Omega? Which one is the first watch that landed on the moon. I think it is the Omega, what do you think? Because the name, Omega Speedmaster, it is also called Moonwatch. Although Speedmaster is not sold as well as the Seamaster of Omega, it also has some popular models, for example, the Dark Side of the Moon. Before the appearance of OM factory, there are only some small factories that were manufacturing the replicas of Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon, however, there were still a lot of people that have asked me about this watch since I opened this blog. Now, OM factory pushed the sales of replica Omega Dark Side of the Moon to another height. This model is even in the top five list of best-selling replica Omega watches.Like its name “Black Black”, the Omega Speedmaster Dark Side of the Moon is in full black. The watch is made of black ceramic in case and bezel, 44mm case diameter is large but is exactly in line with our aesthetic standard. Solid ceramic case has brushed finish, it has a great texture and feels very good. Tachymetre scales on black ceramic bezel are in matt black. Two chronograph pushers use different processing, which is polished and contrasting with the brushed case.
