Nautilus 5711 BBF vs 3KF

Many people here wanted to buy the best Patek Philippe replica watches, they asked me which Patek Philippe watch has a super clone, I always recommend Nautilus 5711, this replica watch has been in the market for many years, it indeed has a high quality, many factories are competing against each other in replica Nautilus 5711, about four or five years ago, one factory named 3K published the replica Nautilus 5711 with a super clone 324 movement in the market, which brought the development of replica Patek Philippe watches into a new era. During the past four or five years, PPF and 3KF have always been competing in the replica Patek Nautilus 5711 watches, but it seems like 3K Factory won this battle, because they have the super clone 324 movement, while the movement used in PPF Nautilus 5711 is a Japanese Miyota movement that has similar decoration to genuine 324 calibre. However, in August, in the field of replica Nautilus 5711, two new factories appeared, one if BBF, the other DDF. Actually BBF is not new to us, they made Hublot Big Bang Unico replicas before. These two factories now got the super clone 324 movement, how did they get this movement, it was only authorized to be used by 3KF before, I think many people are curious about this. Because the exclusive movement licensing agreement between the movement factory and 3KF has just ended, so more factories are able to use this movement in future.

Now, it is time to know the difference of the Nautilus 5711 between BBF and 3KF. The main difference lies in the dial. BBF claims that they have a cooperation with SW Factory, they directly use the SW Dial on their Nautilus 5711. You know, many people bought the Nautilus 5711 before and to pursue perfection, they usually replaced the dial with the SW dial, this cost them a lot of money, the SW dial is not cheap. Now BBF directly uses the SW Dial on their watch, this reduces the cost of secondary modifications on the replica watch. Look at the pictures below, the left watch is from BBF, the right watch is made by 3KF.

First, we notice that the color on the BBF Nautilus is darker, the dial color of the 3KF Nautilus looks slightly grey. The dial color of BBF is closer to that of genuine watch.

Second, the printings of “PATEK PHILIPPE” and “GENEVE” are thicker than that on 3KF dial.

Third, the date font, the black date font on BBF is thicker than that of 3KF. Actually the genuine watch also has a slightly thicker date font like BBF.

Fourth, on 3KF, the edge and corner of the hour markers are sharp, while on BBF, the corner of the hour markers has round polishing.

Fifth, the movement is same, but the engravings on the movement plates and auto rotor are deeper on BBF.

I will take more pictures of BBF Nautilus and do better comparison in future.

No Comments on Aquanaut 5168 Green 3KF vs BBF

This replica Patek Philippe Aquanaut watch has been in the market for years, in the past, the best one is made by 3K Factory, but this factory seems to be extremely lazy because they almost have done no upgrades on this replica watch, I think this is because no one else can use the super clone 324 movement, 3K has totally controled it in the past several years, so people have no choices, if they wanted to buy the best replica of this Patek Philippe Aquanaut watch with a super clone movement, 3K is the only option. However, just several weeks ago, the exclusive licensing agreement between 3K factory and the movement manufacturer has expired, now many factories can get the super clone PP324 movement if they have enough money, BBF is not the first one, but the Aquanaut 5168 from them is really good, I made a simple comparison between it and the one from 3K.

The left watch is from 3K, the right one is from BBF. Which one do you like? The left one looks too green. The green color on the right watch is closer to genuine watch.

Since its release, 3K factory has never made color upgrade on this replica watch, this is not acceptable, many buyers paid a lot of money to seek dial and rubber band in correct color to change on, now you do not need to waste money to do this now, the Aquanaut from BBF has correct color on the dial and the rubber band.

The date font on BBF Aquanaut is thicker. It is said that the Aquanaut from BBF uses the date wheel made by SW.

The movement in the BBF Aquanaut is a clone PP324, whose engravings on the plates are deeper. The engravings on the PP330 of the 3KF Aquanaut are a bit too shallow.

The weight of the 3KF Aquanaut is about 98.5 grams, while the weight of the BBF Aquanaut is about 100.6 grams.

The dial lume light has no big difference, but it seems like the lume light on the 3K is stronger.

My conclusion:

BBF makes improvements on the dial, rubber band and movement engravings, it is more cost-efficient to buy this watch from BBF.

My opinions about the best replica Patek Aquanaut

No Comments on My opinions about the best replica Patek Aquanaut

In the past, I always thought that the replica Patek Aquanaut is made by ZF, which is Z factory we usually call, but I changed my thought after watching a lot of comparison video reviews about Aquanaut, there is no best, no perfect replicas, but if you insist on choosing the best one from a lot of versions made by different factories, I recommend the one from 3K, because it has the best movement.

Before, a lot of customers bought the Aquanaut watch from ZF and they were over satisfied with the quality, especially the movement, which is modified on basis of Miyota 905 but has few issues, like the 15400 made by ZF, also very stable. Actually I did not notice that 3K had developed their super clone 324 movement because of the stable Aquanaut from ZF.

The super clone 324 movement developed by 3K and a movement factory in Dandong is indeed a treasure in this industry, this changed the competition situation on Aquanaut in the market. That super clone 324 movement is a 1:1 imitation of the genuine Patek 324 movement, because of this movement, the Nautilus and Aquanaut from 3K can be made to be the same thickness as genuine. Now I think the Aquanaut from 3K is the best just because the movement they developed is more stable than the one equipped in ZF.

Second, the super clone 324 movement makes it possible to get a perfect replica Aquanaut. The Aquanaut from 3K is not perfect, but the movement allows the watch to be customized. A lot of people got an Aquanaut from 3K and installed the dial, hands and date wheel bought from SW, then the Aquanaut becomes much better. A lot of people are buying such type of custom-made watches now. Because ZF does not use the super clone movement, so it is impossible to do any custom-made jobs on their Aquanaut.

Third, 3K has always been updating the case shape and watch parts on the Patek Aquanaut, now the Aquanaut is updated with new 330 movement, you can see all Aquanaut Patek replicas from 3K have been engraved with “330” on the movement plate, by the way, they are also using the new clasp now.

So, if you want to do a customized job to get a perfect replica Patek Aquanaut, I only recommend the Aquanaut from 3K factory.
