RC Factory Replica Rolex Daytona 126518LN with Turquoise Dial

I have introduced RC Factory and their watches on my blog, this factory does not have a long watch-making history but their watches are really great, they have accumulated a high reputation by producing high quality Day-Date Rolex replica watches with increased weight, which is also the Day-Date Rolex replica watches I highly suggest you buy. I think there will be a certain position for RC Factory in the fild of replica Rolex watches from now on as long as they continue to improve the quality of their watches. Before, RC Factory made Day-Date and Submariner, today, I will introduce another replica Rolex watch from them, it is one of the hottest replica watch in 2025 – the Rolex Daytona 126518LN with turquoise dial.

This Rolex Daytona watch was after by a lot of people when there were no replicas of it in the market, then some factories produced it out, including THB and BT. Now, almost all big factories have this replica watch now, but each one coming from these factories will have subtle difference, so customers are always confused on which one should they buy. Actually do not worry too much because these replicas are already very good enough because the great progress in watch-making technology, especiall this replica Rolex Daytona with these factories is now equipped with the best super clone movement – DD4131.

This Rolex Daytona replica watch from RC Factory is an increased weight version, whose weight is about 160 grams, I measured, it is 159.3 grams. What is the weight of the genuine watch? Genuine watch is made with 18K yellow gold, there is still a weight difference between the replica and the genuine. About this replica watch, each version from different factories not only has a weight difference, but also has a gold tone difference on the case, on this one from RC Factory, the gold color does not look too yellow, the watch from BT Factory also has a similar golden tone, I think this Daytona from both RC and BT is a better choice than the one from other watch makers.

On this Turquoise Daytona from RC, you can also add a layer of real 18K yellow gold coating on the case, the cost to do this is not cheap, which depends on the live golden price. The dial color is also a very hard point to clone, but if you do not have a genuine watch and compare it side by side, it is very difficult for you to see the dial color difference on this replica watch.

APS Factory Replica IWC Top Gun Ceramic Blue

It is close to the traditional Chinese New Year holiday, now many factories have stopped publishing new models, APS is one of the few watch factories that is still developing new models, but I think this is the last new watch from them before the holiday. Another thing need to state here is that these factories will go on holiday several days later, and they won’t be back til March 3rd. So, if you still want to order watches from them, please be quick, perhaps they will be on holiday seven days later. By the way, almost all factories have stopped accepting watch repairing at this moment, if you need to send your watches back to the factory for repairing, please wait til the end of the holiday.

This new IWC Top Gun has a blue color, actually APS factory has published the similar models in black and white color. This blue one is exactly made with blue ceramic, the watch has a reference IW389404.

Replica IWC IW389404

The case is made with real blue ceramic, which is single-fired. The case has the same size and finish as the genuine watch, let’s measure it. The case diameter is 41.9mm and case thickness is 15.4mm. Check pictures below. The case is totally in matte finish.

IW389404 Case Diameter
IW389404 Case Thickness

The dial is blue. Very close blue color to the case, but the blue color on the case looks a bit darker. The dial is also matte finished that looks slightly grainy, this texture is also the same as that of the genuine. White hour markers are overprinted, they look a bit raised from the dial, just like that on the genuine dial. The circled patterns on the small dials are also very refined.

IW389404 Dial

When you reset the chronograph, the central second-chronograph hand immediately back to zero and sit exactly in the middle of the 12 marker, its tip just aligns with the apex of the triangle.

The crown, pushers and buckle are all in titanium.

This replica IWC watch is equipped with a clone 69385 movement, which has already used in several IWC Pilot chronograph replica watches by APS Factory, such as the IW378006 I reviewed before. This is the best chronograph movement used in replica IWC Pilot chrono watches.

APS Factory Replica IWC Portuguese Chrono with Super Clone 69355 Movement

Last time, I introduced one IWC Pilot’s chrono watch made by APS Factory, it is the first replica of IWC Pilot’s chrono watch with a super clone movement in the market, it is equipped with a super clone 69385 movement. Please check that review at https://www.wristwatchspot.com/2025/10/10/aps-factory-replica-iwc-pilots-watch-chronograph-iw378006-green/. At that time, I thought next time APS will make improvement on the movement of Portuguese Chrono watches, because both the Pilot’s chrono and Portuguese chrono have some similarity in function and dial layout, which is the small dial at 6 o’clock is for display of small seconds. Just in this week, APS finally released three Portuguese chrono models with the new movement, currently white dial, green dial and champagne dial available.

The following one has a white dial and golden markers, this watch was published by several watch factories before, the most popular versions are coming from ZF and AZ. Many customers have always been complaining the stability of the movement, which is an Asian 7750, they think it is not too stable, so this is the main reason why APS made the upgrade on the movement this time. In my opinion, I do not think it is necessary to make this improvement, after all, this watch is not hot among IWC fans, and there was already an upgrade made in the past, whose movement was changed from SH7750 to DD7750 and the stability was greatly improved. Now on this new clone 69355 movement which APS factory brings to us, I also suggest you do not use its chronograph function too often.

This clone 69355 is good, but it is not a perfect clone movement. Check the engravings on the movement plates and auto rotor, they are very shallow, not like they are engraved, more like being printed. The letterings are also much thinner than those on the genuine IWC Calibre. It seems like APS always has this issue when they publish a new movement, the 925 movement they publish for the Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin also has this issue.

By the way, this IWC Portuguese chrono replica watch is equipped with a black leather band that is made with calfskin leather, whose surface has embossed aligator prints. Compared with the genuine aligator leather band, it looks more glossy, while the luster of an alligator leather strap is more natural. Absolutely you can get a genuine aligator leather band and replace on, it is not expensive.

RC Factory Replica Rolex Day-Date 228238 Black Rock Sugar

Rolex Day-Date replica was one of the best sellers in 2025, and it will still be a hot model which every factory will complete on in 2026. With the entry of VS Factory, the competition of Rolex Day-Date will be much higher in 2026. Many factories here are producing the Day-Date Rolex replicas, you may have a question, which factory makes the best? Like I said before, if you do not have enough budget, I recommend GM Factory, if you have some money, then directly buy from RC Factory.

RC does not have a long history, it just made replicas from 2025, they have made Day-Date and two Submariner, absolutely the hottest products from them are Day-Date, and it is usually difficult to order their Day-Date, need to wait for a long time. This yellow gold Day-Date I shown below is a new model from VS, but it has been made by RC for a while. This Day-Date looks very luxury and has a nick name ‘black rock sugar’.

The gold tone on this watch looks great, it does not look too bright yellow gold, for example, the yellow gold tone on the Day-Date made by THB Factory looks too yellow, this RC Day-Date has a closer gold tone to the genuine watch. Besides the golden tone, this Day-Date from RC also has many other advantages, for example, the whole watch can be wrapped with gold coating, not like other factories such as CBD an THB, their Day-Date could not be wrapped with gold coating, or you will see obvious cracks on the bracelet.

Another place I like on this Day-Date is that it has very good engraving on the clasp, especially the dog head mark, which is deeply engraved and looks very clear, I also have compared its clasp with the one on the latest QF Day-Date, and found RC Day-Date’s clasp is much better.

This Day-Date also has two shortcomings, first, if you check the hands with a magnifier, you can see some burrs on the edge, and almost all factories have this issue on their watches, except Clean, whose watches have the best hand finishes, but this factory has been closed. Second, the hour markers do not use diamonds, they use zircon, but no other factories use real diamonds or moissanites on the Day-Date.

APS Factory AP 15500 Free-Sprung 4302

Happy New Year!

Last week in our market, VS Factory announced their release of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15500 replica watch, with two models, blue and grey. They said their 15500 is the best, which is far better than the one made by APS and other factories. You may also have read reviews and watched videos about the VSF 15500 published by some dealers, which claimed the VSF 15500 is the best and has a free-sprung movement, this is not true, the 15500 replica Audemars Piguet watch from VS Factory is not the best one. As I’ve always said, if a replica watch is made by several factories, the one from any of these factories could not be the best, because each has their own advantages when be compared with the others. Taking this Royal Oak 15500 as an example, some dealers saying VS Factory has the best finish on the grids of the dial, but I have compared it between VS and APS, I do not find the difference on the dial grids, on the contrary, APS has a much better central axis of the hands.

VS also claims that they use the same links on the bracelet as the genuine watch, which is 23 links, APS Factory’s bracelet has 24 links, why do I think the longer bracelet of APS is better? Because more people have a big wrist size. The end link of the bracelet on VS is indeed more flexible and allow for a wider range of motion.

The movement from VS is made by a famous movement manufacturer in China, it is a movement with regulator that is hidden, while APS Factory has two movement options for the AP 15500, regular version and the one with free-sprung balance. It is not the first time for AP 15500 replica watch to use a clone 4302 with free-sprung balance, before APS, another factory named DDF already developed such a movement, but they did not add weights on the balance wheel. So, currently in the market, APS is the only factory that uses a super clone 4302 movement with real free-sprung balance on the AP 15500.

VS Factory Replica Rolex GMT-Master Weighted

For the best replica Rolex GMT-Master II watches, they were made by Clean Factory in the past, one reason is that Clean had the best DD3285 movement, the other is that Clean really had better finishes on the dial than other factories, but this factory has been closed for months, some people are still looking for their products, and some dealers are claiming that they still have Clean watches, please do not be scammed by them, there are no Clean watches in the market, these dealers may put Clean Factory’s sticker on the watches from other factories to deceive the customers.

After the closure of Clean, some factories got the DD3285 movement, including VS and AR, VS is not the first factory to make the weighted GMT-Master II, before them, AR and Gold two factories already have made, and the one made by AR is also highly recommended, it should be the biggest challenge to VS in future, because Victory Factory will not have a fast development in a short period.

This time, VS published two GMT-Master II with increased weight, one is 126711CHNR with oyster bracelet, the other is 126713GRNR with jubilee bracelet. I measured the weight of each watch, it is heavier than the regular version, but still not the same as the genuine watch. For the two tone rose gold GMT model from VS, it is 176.5 grams, this watch from AR has a weight of 180 grams, almost the same, but there are differences in other details, I will do a comparison between them if there is a chance in future.

These two GMT-Master II watches are not too popular in the market, the best-selling ones are the Batman, Batgirl and Pepsi, but these two have the same high quality as the three best sellers. In my opinion, the GMT-Master II is not as good as Datejust and Daytona in the market, VS Factory should focus on improving this model, not rush to publish the increased weight version of the GMT-Master.

Victory Factory Titanium YachtMaster

Is Victory the real Clean?

Every person will ask me the same question if a new factory appeared and claims that they are the real Clean. But like I said before, Victory is not the previous Clean Factory, and I am sure that Clean will not be back.

When Clean Plus appeared one month ago, a lot of people also thought that the real Clean has been back, but Clean Plus is not the original Clean Factory, and their Rolex replica watches are different from the ones made by Clean in the past.

For the Rolex replica watches made by Victory Factory, they are almost the same as the ones made by Clean before, but Victory is another team, they just found all the suppliers that produced watch parts for Clean before, watch parts are the same, but the watches are assembled by Victory Factory team.

Rolex Titanium YachtMaster 226627

I introduced this replica watch on my blog before, TW and EWE are the earliest two factories that produced this watch, Clean is the last, when Clean ready to use DD3235 movement in this watch, they got raided and forced to be closed. Now if you ask me which factory makes the best replica of this Rolex Titanium YachtMaster 226627, I will say Victory Factory. In the market, only two factories are using the best clone DD3235 movement in this replica watch, the first is Clean Plus, the second is Victory Factory. However, on the ceramic bezel, which I think is a very important place on this watch, Clean Plus does not have good polishing on the bezel markers. By the way, Victory also uses the latest version DD3235 automatic movement.

Will Victory becomes a main competitor of VS?

In a short period, Victory will not be a threat to VS. Especially in the field of Rolex, I believeVS factory has no competitors left. Their Datejust and Daytona models are so popular that they have already built a strong reputation and high acceptance among customers. If Victory factory wants to compete with VS in the Rolex segment, they must make significant upgrades to their watches, which is already quite challenging, given that VS has already achieved a high level of maturity in both craftsmanship and movement technology. However, if you are a longtime fan of the previous Clean factory, you might consider purchasing a Rolex from Victory. Currently, ordering a Datejust or Daytona from VS factory requires a very long wait.

Tudor Black Bay Blue ZF vs Genuine

Today, I will make a comparison between the replica Tudor watch from ZF and the genuine one, this replica Tudor watch was made by Z Factory years ago, it was very popular before, and it is a very solid and durable replica watch, I think people who bought this watch before are still using it, and they can still wear it for many years. Nowadays, the hotness of Tudor replica watches in our market has decreased, everybody is talking about Rolex replicas, but some Tudor Black Bay replicas still look classic and have solid quality, like this blue one, although you can find some differences between it and the genuine after reading this article, but this watch is still worth purchasing.

Case

First, the weight is very close. Both watches have a weight of about 141 grams.

The replica

The following two pictures describe the case diameter and thickness on the replica Tudor watch. It is 39mm in diameter and 11.7mm in thickness.

Replica Tudor Case Diameter

The following two pictures show you the case diameter and thickness of the original Tudor watch.

Compare the original and the replica, we can see both almost have the same case diameter and thickness.

Bezel

About the bezel, both use Aluminum insert, when rotating the bezel on the genuine watch, the clicking sound is crisper.

Please check the four pictures below, they are showing the comparison on the dial color and bezel color between the replica and the genuine. The left one is the replica watch from Z Factory, the right one is the genuine watch.

The dial color on the replica and the genuine is the same.

The bezel on the replica has a blue that look darker than the bezel on the genuine watch.

On the genuine watch, the shade of the blue color on the dial and bezel almost remains the same, but on the replica watch, we can see the color difference, the blue on the bezel looks darker.

Replica Tudor vs Genuine Tudor Bezel Color

Crown

On the replica, the gap between the crown and the case is bigger. Look at the two pictures below, when you check from the back, you can see the difference more obviously.

Crown position

Clasp

On the right, the genuine watch has a deeper shield groove.

Tudor Buckle

The genuine watch also has a deeper engraving on the clasp.

Tudor Engraving

Time Adjusting

The movement is different. In the replica, the date module is still kept on the movement, so when you adjust the time, you need to pull out the crown to the second clicking position. While on the genuine watch, its movement does not have date module, you only need to pull out the crown to the first clicking position to adjust time.

Dial

On the first picture below, the left one is the replica, the right one is the genuine watch. On the genuine dial, the polishing on the stainless steel edge of the hands and hour markers looks brighter. Genuine watch has better polishing on the hands and hour markers.

The following two pictures show you the finish of the dial printings. The first one is genuine dial, whose printings look fuller and more three-dimensional than the printings on the replica.

Victory Factory, the real Clean?

Clean has been closed for months, a lot of people are still seeking for their products, but if I say you can not buy a replica Rolex from the original Clean, do you believe that? Because I see many people say Clean Plus is the real Clean factory, I have made comparisons between their Datejust, there are differences, Clean Plus not really use all the same components on Clean. In last week, I heard a rumor that the real Clean factory has been back, please check the following watches, are you familiar with the sticker on these watches? It looks very like the sticker on Clean. But I do not think this is the real Clean factory. First, VS Factory’s Rolex replica watches are currently in short supply and high demand. In such a situation, many people looking to take a share of the profits will enter the watchmaking industry. The best approach at this time is to sell watches using the previous factory’s name or reputation. Second, Clean only made Rolex watches in the past, the new factory Victory, which pretends to be Clean, now not only makes Datejust, but also has the Nautilus 5711. Based on First and Second thought above, I do not think this is the real Clean. But their watches will not be bad, after all, the Datejust from them uses the latest DD3235 movement. If they are truly going to operate under Clean Factory’s name, they are unlikely to make the watch quality too poor.

VS Factory V2 Replica Rolex Day-Date Green Watch

With the closure of Clean Factory in this year, the biggest winner in this industry is VS Factory, a lot of Rolex replica watches made by this factory are so hot that demand exceeds supply, I am not sure if this is a good thing for our customers. For example, for the V2 Datejust and some gain weight Daytona models, after placing your orders with VS, you usually need to wait for longer than usual. VS Factory has made breakthroughs in several areas this year, one of them is the weight increasing watch-making technology is applied in more Rolex models, such as Daytona and Day-Date, last time, I introduced the V2 Day-Date from VS at https://www.wristwatchspot.com/2025/11/28/vs-factory-v2-rolex-day-date/, they include three models, white, blue and green. Today, let’s see more pictures of the green one.

Like I said in my last post, the weight of V2 Day-Date has come to 182 grams, this weight is acceptable to me and it is not much lighter than the genuine watch, I know there are other factories making Rolex Day-Date with a weight that is much heavier than this one, but it does not mean the watch is better if it is heavier, and sometimes it is risky to get a gain weight Rolex from a factory, because you do not know if the watch will have case issue of peeling off. Some factories even added the thickness of the links of the bracelet to increase weight, most of them have a thicker case. But for the V2 Day-Date made by VS, it is the one in the market with closest weight to the genuine, and the case will never have any issues.

The replica watch has a great green on the dial, this is the closest green color on this Day-Date model I have ever seen. The watch comes with a DD3255 movement, which is the only super clone 3255 in this industry and only used by VS currently. VS Factory developed two movements in this year, one is the 8806 used in Seamaster 300m, the other is this DD3255. The former is a bit controversial because a lot of people think it is not better than the previous movement that is based on an Asian 2824, but the DD3255, in my opinion, is very good and has a super stability, check the movement pictures I took.
