No Comments on About two hot Patek Philippe watches

One is Nautilus 5712, which has moon phase display and power reserve indicator on the dial, the other is Nautilus 5711, which has a blue/gray dial. Which factory makes the best replica of each?

First for the Nautilus 5712, I highly recommend the one made by PPF, the latest version is V3, which was published by PPF on June, with upgradation on dial color and movement engravings. Many people bought the PPF Nautilus 5711 and did some modifications, like changing its dial, moon phase and date wheel. Before, I also suggested buy a PPF 5712 and replaced its dial, hands and moon phase with SW watch parts, but now I do not think this is a good idea, if these watch parts are not correctly installed by a very professional watch master, then the watch will often have issues in daily use, and it is very difficult for you to send the watch back for repairing.

The second watch is the Nautilus 5711 from BBF, which I think is better than the one made by 3K and PPF. Besides this blue/gray dial version, BBF also produces the white and green one, they are all good. The latest version is V2 now, the dial color, dial printing and grids are more accurate. The Nautilus 5711 also has a free-sprung balance wheel version made by DDF, do not buy this one, its movement not stable. By the way, the jewel bearing of the auto rotor on BBF 324 movement looks more authentic than the one on the 3K 330 movement.

VS Factory Gray Diamond Datejust Review

No Comments on VS Factory Gray Diamond Datejust Review

For men who like luxury diamond Rolex, I think they can consider to buy this one I show below. This replica watch is a new model from VS factory, it just came out with V2 version, now VS factory has seven different models for V2 Datejust, in my opinion, the V2 Datejust is exactly the best 41mm Datejust in the market, you do not need to consider other choices.

This Rolex has a gray dial with diamonds, it is called ‘灰钻’, ‘灰劳’ in Chinese, which is a homophone of two other words ‘会赚’ and ‘会捞’， meaning a person who is good at making money, also means he is going to make a fortune. So, after seeing this, do you think you need such a watch?

I introduced the V2 Datejust from VS Factory before, you can check at https://www.wristwatchspot.com/2025/09/27/vs-factory-v2-replica-rolex-datejust/. I said the most important improvements lie in its weight and bezel, but now I found VS V2 Datejust has much better dial finishes than the Datejust produced by them before, the sunburst finishes, dial color and finish on the edge of the hands, you can see they really have been upgraded to a very good quality level. Look at the dial of this gray diamond Datejust, there is subtle and even no color difference when being compared with the genuine. The sunburst finish is also very refined.

About the movement, it is the best DD3235, this movement was only used by VS before, now three factories are using it, including VS, Clean Plus and AR. I do not know how AR Factory got this movement, and AR also makes this gray diamond Datejust, but I do not suggest you buy it from AR. The best one is still made by VS, the one from Clean Plus is also very good.

After the closure of the Clean Factory, VS Factory did many works to improve their Rolex, on this Datejust, the clasp engravings are also upgraded, they are deeper, the engraved font looks exactly the same as that of the genuine watch.

My conclusion

For this gray diamond Datejust, the first choice is VS V2 version, the second choice is the one from Clean Plus.

Audemars Piguet 26420 Gray Ceramic

No Comments on Audemars Piguet 26420 Gray Ceramic

This is the latest replica watch from APS Factory, it is the AP 26420 with gray ceramic bezel. The watch comes with SH4401, we already introduced this movement before, it is a super clone movement that has the same important meaning as the DD4130 that was released years ago, and the SH4401 has been in this industry for months since its release, it has been proven to be reliable. SH4401 was firstly equipped in the AP 26240 by APS and the watch immediately became hot, now this movement has been upgraded to V2, which features a free-sprung balance wheel, the price of the watch also increases greatly.

APS Factory has published several models of Audemars Piguet 26420, I only recommended the black one before, now this gray one also looks great, together with the black model, both have no color difference and are made with correct materials.

Do I recommend the 26240 and 26420 made by APS Factory? Yes, I do. Both watches from APS are the best ones in our market. However, currently APS are offering these two watches with V1 SH4401 and V2 SH4401 at the same time. The V1 SH4401 has a regulator above the balance wheel, the V2 SH4401 has a free-sprung balance wheel. V1 is much cheaper, with a free-sprung balance wheel, V2 looks closer to the genuine even checking the movement through the back. However, in future daily use, it is very difficult for you the adjust the accuracy on V2, even you take the watch to a store, the repairman may not be able to regulate the movement, and it is not convenient to send the watch back to the factory. So, I recommend the V1 from APS.

At last, in our market, it is said ORF or GF has been back, we have not heard from them for a long time, several days ago, ORF published the Seamaster with new movement to form a competition with VS. But the movement both in ORF Seamaster or VSF Seamaster has extra regulator above the balance wheel, ORF does beautiful fish-scale decoration on the movement plates. Almost all Seamaster 300 models from VSF have been upgraded with the latest 8800 movement, and they do not offer the Seamaster 300 with old 2824 movement now. Actually I like the old movement(2824) more because its regulator is more invisible. Next in Seamaster 300, I think VS Factory will remove the extra regulator on the movement.

AR Factory Replica Rolex Daytona Yellow Gold with Gain Weight

No Comments on AR Factory Replica Rolex Daytona Yellow Gold with Gain Weight

About AR Factory, many people heard this name and still have an extremely good impression about it because the watches from this factory usually comes with the best case and bracelet, now this AR is not the same one as before, but the new AR still makes good quality Rolex watches replicas for us. Few people mention about them, this is good, it will be risky if a factory gets too much attention.

Before, AR makes Day-Date, many people do not know this because AR did not promote their products, I mentioned their Day-Date when reviewing the increased weight Day-Date made by other factories, actually the Day-Date from AR also has a similar weight to the genuine, also the golden tone looks very real, perhaps you guys only focused on CBD, GM, QF and RC, and forgot AR.

I do not know when AR wanted to make Daytona and how did they get the DD4131 movement. After the closure of Clean, many factories have taken fast actions, this is a good opportunity for them, also for AR. VS Factory also made upgrade in weight of their Daytona, now with the accumulated experience in making weighted Day-Date Rolex, they make the Daytona with a heavier weight than VS, check the picture below, it is 161.4 grams, which is the heaviest one in the market. As far as I know, the latest version of this Daytona from VS is 136 grams.

Datejust 2 Clean Plus vs VS

No Comments on Datejust 2 Clean Plus vs VS

In recent weeks, I heard two news, first, Clean is back. Second, many movements are now made available to more factories. About Clean, this factory was closed, but there have been a lot of fans of this factory, they are still hoping that Clean will come back one day, but it is impossible, one factory that is in hot discussion in this field is claimed to be Clean Factory by some people, it is Clean Plus, while this factory is also not the same previous Clean, I made a comparison between their Datejust, the difference is obvious. The second thing is about the movements. Now a lot of movements have been authorized to be used by more factories, like previous PP324, which was only used by 3K, now DDF and BBF are also using this movement. The DD4131, which was only used by BT and VS, now ARF also uses this movement in their Daytona with gain weight. This is good for our watch fans, the competition between these factories will bring us more better quality watches.

It seems like the appearance of Clean Plus does not change the situation in the market, the Rolex replica watches from VS Factory, including Datejust, GMT-Master and Daytona, are always in a high demand, they are often out of stock because a lot of people ordered, VS Rolex is too hot that people usually need to wait. The marketing strategy of Clean Plus is that they use the same Clean watch parts on their Rolex watches, but if you have bought Clean products before and observe carefully, you will find this is not true, if you want me to choose between Clean Plus and VS, I will absolutely select VS.

About the movement, Clean Plus uses the latest version of DD3235, in Rolex from VS, they randomly use the old version and new version of DD3235, some people said the new version of DD3235 is more stable, this is not true, both versions have the same high stability.

Clean Plus currently does not have advantages when being compared with VS, especially in Datejust 2. The Datejust from Clean Plus seems to be more like the V1 edition of VS, while the Datejust 2 from VS Factory has been upgraded to V2. The weight of Clean Plus is about 128 grams, the weight of VS Datejust V2 is about 135 grams, the bezel on VS Datejust looks closer to that on the genuine.

Conclusion:

If you want to buy the best Datejust replica watch, VS is the best option. While Clean Plus also has a good quality. In future, I think Q Factory will also use the DD3235 movement in their Rolex.

APS Factory Replica IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph IW378006 Green

No Comments on APS Factory Replica IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph IW378006 Green

Just heard that Clean Factory has been back to the business. On many sites, it is called Clean Plus now. Many people may be curious about if this is the same Clean Factory as before, one thing I am very sure of is that the new factory Clean Plus is not operated by the same team now, which means this factory is now under the control of another person, who perhaps is the relative of the former boss. However, one thing we care about is the quality of the Rolex watches offered by Clean Plus, if the quality is still the same as that offered by Clean before? Anyone who has already bought the watch from Clean Plus? In my opinion, the quality will most likely be the same, because it is not difficult to find the suppliers that offered watch parts for Clean Factory before. So, we hope Clean Plus can still offer high quality Rolex replicas, but they will be more low-key in future.

For the new IWC Pilot’s chronograph watch, APS has made three models that have different dial colors, there are black, blue and green choices, each of them has stainless steel bracelet and leather band option. I think many of you guys have seen the replicas of these IWC watches, but they were made by other factories and do not have right functions. This replica made by APS Factory is the only one with correct function that is the same as the genuine. Compared with the black and blue, I like this green more. Many people may say black does not have color difference, but I have checked all three, the blue and green also do not have color difference.

The case is made with solid 316L stainless steel, I measured it, which has a 41mm diameter, not including the crown, and it has a 14.5mm thickness. Finally the replica has a correct case thickness for a genuine watch with chronograph movement. Observe the sapphire crystal at a certain angle, there is a blue hue on the crystal. The green dial has a sunburst finish that looks as good as that on the genuine watch. Central hour hand and minute hand as well as three small hands have polished edge like the genuine. The red small second hand is running smoothly on the subdial at 6 o’clock.

The watch comes with a stainless steel bracelet, but a leather strap is also available, and it is easy to be replaced on because of its quick-release system. Check the movement through the crystal back, we can see beautiful fish-scale patterns on the base plate, and correct engravings on top plates and auto rotor, in outlook and function, the movement is exactly 1:1 clone of the genuine IWC Calibre.

Patek Philippe

BBF Nautilus 5711 Green

Last time, I made a comparison on Nautilus 5711 blue mode between BBF and 3KF, please check this article at https://www.wristwatchspot.com/2025/08/22/nautilus-5711-bbf-vs-3kf/, although 3KF made an improvement on the dial color before, I still think that BBF has a closer dial color. I do not know if 3K Factory has felt the pressure, if BBF does better and continues to improve their products, 3K Factory will lose a significant market share. As we know, 3K Factory has had the super clone 324 movement for many years, now their exclusive agreement with the movement manufacturer has expired, so other factories can use this movement, so this is the reason why you can see many new factories in replica Patek Philippe field. Today, let’s see the new Nautilus 5711 replica watch, which is the one with green dial.

Did you see the green Nautilus 5711 from 3K? Its dial is grass green, which looks too bright green, and it seems like 3K Factory has never improved this watch. On this version from BBF, the most important improvement lies in the dial color, which does not look that bright now, it is more like olive green, when you swing the watch, the dial will show you different green effects. There is sunburst finish, but not as obvious as that on the genuine. On the dial, the date font is made to be better than that on 3K, but some date fonts look different from the genuine, I mean the shape of some numbers. The lume material on hour markers and hands is kept to be the same and it is in matte texture like on the genuine watch.

Because of this super clone 324 movement, the case can be made to be in the same thickness as the genuine. But in original watch, the movement is 330 with hacking seconds, while for the clone 324 movement in the replica, the second hand will not stop after you pull out the crown. Besides, the engravings on the movement plates seem to be thicker and deeper than on the 3K watch, but still not that thick and deep like on the genuine watch. On the plate, it is still engraved with “324”, but on genuine, it is “330”.

There is another flaw on the replica, which lies in the shape of its lugs, on the genuine watch, the lug has an obvious beak-shaped end, on the replica, the beak-shaped feature is not too obvious. But in our market, we have experienced watch master to polish it to have a better shape. About the date font flaw, you can also change the date wheel with a better SW date wheel.

VS Factory V2 Replica Rolex Datejust

1 Comment on VS Factory V2 Replica Rolex Datejust

I said Clean won’t come back before, but just several days ago, a news from the market said they came back, with a new name C Plus, some people said this is true, but I really doubt, I still remember that C+ is the competitor of Clean, they also have a name C Plus, so have they taken over Clean’s operations completely? Will C Plus make the same quality Rolex as Clean? Let us see what happen next.

The biggest beneficiary of Clean’s closure is its competitor, which is absolutely VS, VS Factory has been making Rolex for years and has gained a lot of fans, now many fans of Clean Rolex turn to buy the watches of VS, so now the Rolex is wildly popular that VS Factory can not keep up with the great demand. VS often updates their Rolex such as Daytona and Datejust, just several days ago, they published the V2 edition of the grey Datejust.

Actually before this grey Datejust, VS Factory has published the V2 edition of the blue one. VS mainly made improvements on its bezel and dial. The bezel looks brighter, some dealers said VS uses Platinum coating on the bezel, some said they just use Rhodium, but the bezel will keep this bright finish as always, its tone will not easily fade like before, the flutes on the bezel also look to be in more correct shape.

About the grey dial, it is as good as before, the sunburst finish is obvious and very delicate, the axi of the hands refers to the design of the latest genuine Rolex Datejust, , both hour hand and minute hand do not have burr on the edge even you observe very closely, two hands also have more rounded polishing than before, so do these hour markers.

By the way, the weight of the entire watch is about 133.5 grams, which is the same as the genuine watch. The replica watch is equipped with a super clone 3235 movement, which is the best clone Rolex 3235 movement in this industry. In a word, now if you need a super clone Datejust, the best option is VS.

Audemars Piguet

AP 26240 DDF vs APS

Many people may be interested in this watch, after all DDF is the first watch manufacturer to publish the replica in batch with free-sprung balance, but is it really a wise choice to choose from DDF? Because APS also has the free-sprung balance version, I already introduced here https://www.wristwatchspot.com/2025/08/29/aps-factory-v2-replica-audemars-piguet-26240-with-free-sprung-balance/. In my opinion, the AP 26240 from DDF does not have the real free-sprung balance, the balance wheel does not have weights, so it will be very hard to adjust the accuracy, and the 26240 from both DDF and APS has a very similar price, so my advice is do not buy from DDF. Here are some pictures of the 26240 from DDF.

After publishing the V2 edition of AP 26240, now the AP 26420 from APS is also equipped with the super clone 4401 with free-sprung balance, please check the pictures below, this is the latest V2 edition of 26420. This should be the best quality replica of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chrono watch in this industry. Many people are interested in buying a high quality replica Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Chrono, both 26240 and 26420 from APS are good choices, and for the 26331, do not buy it currently, we can wait until a better version comes out.

APS Factory has always placed great importance on the research and development of new super clone movements, and the release of the V2 26240 with free-sprung balance also has proven the clone 4401 movement to be highly stable, or they would not update the movement. APS Factory has been in this industry for many years, at the beginning, the movement they developed for the Portuguese 7 Days Power Reserve surprised everyone, we still remember the other movements from APS, such as 3120 for the AP 15400, 925 for the Jaeger LeCoultre Moon Phase, they are all good super clone movements that have made a big contribution in this area. Besides the movement, I do hope APS can pay the same important attention to the finish of the watch.

Oyster Perpetual 36mm 126000 Pistachio VS vs KRF

No Comments on Oyster Perpetual 36mm 126000 Pistachio VS vs KRF

Do not wait now, Clean Factory will not be back, there are no news about them in the market, this factory has been closed forever. In my opinion, Clean made the best replicas Rolex watches in the past, like many people thought Noob made the best ones before, but Clean has brought the quality of replica Rolex into another level, which is much better than that of Noob, it is a great loss for all of us. Currently in the market, VS should be the best alternative of Clean, but I still think the Rolex from VS is not as good as Clean in some details, especially the finish of the hands and markers. Will there be another factory can make super clone Rolex that has the same quality as Clean? I think we will wait for a long time.

When there be a new model published by Rolex, every one is waiting for a super clone from Clean, but now you start paying attention to other factories like VS, KR, AR, QF. Today, I will make a brief comparison on the replica Oyster Perpetual 126000 between VS and KR. This replica Rolex watch with a Pistachio dial is very popular.

KR Factory is the first manufacturer to publish the replica of 2025 Rolex Oyster Perpetual, I gave a review here in May https://www.wristwatchspot.com/2025/05/23/kr-factory-2025-replica-rolex-oyster-perpetual-126000/. They offer three movement options for the replica, now VS Factory just published the new 126000, but I still think KR is the best option.

Besides the movement, there is another big difference between the two watches, which is the dial color. Look at the two pictures below, the left one is from VS, the right watch is from KR. The dial of the VS looks nice, but the watch from KR has a more correct dial color that looks slightly darker. However, if you observe the dial very closely, you will find VS has a fine gritty texture, while the dial of KR is smooth, in this aspect, VS is closer to the genuine.

Oyster Perpetual VS vs KR — The right watch from KRF has a dial color that is closer to genuine.

There is no need to compare the other details, VS uses a super clone 3230 movement, pull out the crown to wind the watch, pull it to the first click to adjust time directly, there is no date module in this movement, just like the genuine Rolex movement.

On both watches, the crystal is slightly higher above the bezel, but the edge of the crystal lacks rounded and smooth polishing, not like the Rolex from Clean, every piece has very good rounded polishing on the crystal.
