VS Factory Replica Audemars Piguet 15510 Blue

The pace of new releases in the replica watch market is getting slower and slower. The 2026 watch fairs are almost over, and major brands have already launched many new models, yet we still haven’t seen the big replica factories producing them. So what are these factories doing now? They are competing against each other, constantly trying to outdo one another, while the products themselves are becoming increasingly homogeneous.

Take Rolex replicas for example. You see factories like AR, VS, Victory, Clean Plus and others all fighting in the same space. But honestly, are the quality differences between their Rolex replicas really that huge? I don’t think so.

The same thing is happening in the Audemars Piguet market. Recently, VS Factory entered the scene and released both the 15500 and this 15510. Their goal is clearly to challenge APS’s position in the industry, but I don’t think that will be easy.

This VS 15510 is indeed a very good watch, but it is not “the best on the market” like many sellers claim. Compared with APS, it has certain advantages, but APS’s 15510 is also better in some areas.

A lot of people say the blue dial on the VS 15510 looks better than the APS version. However, if you have actually compared them with the genuine watch, you will notice that APS’s blue tone is slightly closer to the authentic one. On the other hand, I think VS did a better job with the texture pattern inside each dial square.

As for the differences in the second hand and minute hand, I personally don’t think they matter much. APS used an older version of the 15510 for their mold development, while VS copied the latest release. Nobody really knows what subtle changes Audemars Piguet may have made to the genuine watch over the years.

One advantage of the VS 15510 is that the first links of the bracelet have a much wider range of movement, unlike the APS version, whose links feel too stiff and fixed.

The movement inside is the DD4302. It is not a true free-sprung balance movement because the balance wheel does not have adjustable weights. This means that regulating the watch in the future could become quite difficult.

My recommendation is simple: if you want a truly free-sprung 15510, I would still suggest going with the APS version.

DD Factory Replica Patek Philippe 5711 Green

Before introducing this replica watch, I have to announce a major and unfortunate news – APS has reportedly been raided, which means collectors may no longer be able to buy their watches in the future. I honestly don’t understand why APS was targeted. Unlike many other factories, they never focused on Rolex replicas. In the past, factories like Noob and Clean were heavily targeted mainly because their replica Rolex models became too famous. As for APS this time, I believe it may be related to their Audemars Piguet lineup, especially the 4401 super clone movement with free-sprung balance they developed for the AP 26240, as well as the 4302 clone movement with free-sprung balance used in the 15500.

Alright, today we’re taking a look at the replica Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 with the green dial from DD Factory. The first factory to produce this green-dial 5711 was 3K Factory, but the color difference on their dial was quite obvious. In comparison, DD Factory’s olive green dial is much closer to the genuine watch. Just take a look at the comparison photos below.

There are many factories producing replica Nautilus 5711 watches right now. If 3K continues relying on its old reputation without making improvements, I think its market share will soon be taken over by BB and DD Factory. I’ve also heard that BB Factory is currently developing a new clone 330 movement with a true hacking seconds function, just like the genuine watch. As of now, none of the clone 330 movements used in replica 5711 models on the market support hacking seconds.

Compared with BB Factory’s version, I think DD Factory’s 5711 still lacks some refinement on the hour markers. The edges feel a bit too sharp because the chamfering and polishing are not as well executed. BB Factory does a better job with the finishing of the markers. However, the date font on DD Factory’s 5711 is slightly thicker than 3K’s version, which is actually closer to the genuine Patek Philippe.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

DDF 26240

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.

APS Factory Replica Audemars Piguet 26331

Audemars Piguet 26331 has been very hot for many years in this industry, before APS, two factories have made its replica, they are OM and APW, OM makes this watch good but its function has been sacrificed, the minute-chrono counter at 3 and hour-chrono counter at 9 on the replica 26331 from OM do not work, but the finish on other details is very good. About APW, they do not make too many watches, the 26331 is their iconic product, but I am not satisfied with the quality, even APW has published the latest V2 edition, but I still think their quality is not as good as the one from OM. Then how about the 26331 from APS? I think it has caught the attention of many people, after all APS Factory is the biggest name in Audemars Piguet field, their fans expect a great quality 26331, but how is the watch, really?

My opinion is, if you really like the Audemars Piguet Chrono replica watch, just buy the AP 26240 from APS, this 26331 is not as good as the 26240 from them.

When promoting this watch, APS said that they have improved the movement, which is actually a SL4801, they also said the movement stability has greatly improved and will not have any issues, this is interesting, because a friend of mine got one and the movement now has issue, he can not adjust the date by rotating the crown. So I think APS just uses the same movement as the 26331 from APW, everyone knows that this movement modified by APW has a high return rate. But if you are lucky, you will get a good one with no issues in future wearing. But I would rather believe that the one with 7750 movement made by OM Factory has a higher stability. It is not the right time to buy this replica watch from APS Factory, trust me, a better one will come out soon.

APS Factory V2 Replica Audemars Piguet 26240 with Free-Sprung Balance

APS Factory published the Audemars Piguet 26240 on February of 2025, it is a replica watch with real flyback chrono function, I introduced this watch on my blog at https://www.wristwatchspot.com/2025/02/21/aps-factory-replica-audemars-piguet-flyback-chrono-26240/, when just came out, they got so many orders that the factory could not keep up, customers usually have to wait for around a month for the watch, but it’s fine now. The AP 26240 has become a best seller in the market, APS Factory just carried out a big improvement on the movement, which has been updated to be with a free-sprung balance.

The movement does not change, it is still the same SH4401 as previous one, the only change is the stem was removed and weights were added on the balance wheel. Before, to get a SH4401 with free-sprung balance, some people paid a lot of money to modify the movement in mod workshop, the modification cost was absolutely very high, now APS makes the movement out, APS also increases the price of the watch, but not too high. If you want to experience the latest V2 26240 from APS, need to place your order from the factory, then will not wait for too long.

This is a big step forward for APS, which has made a great contribution in this industry, for people who want to buy the best Audemars Piguet replicas, now I will suggest you buy from APS Factory, whether they consider to buy the regular Royal Oak 15400 or 15500, or the Royal Oak Chronograph 26240, APS Factory is the best choice. By the way, this factory just published the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 26331, which is also a very good-looking watch that has been sought after by a lot of people for many years. Between 26240 and 26331, which watch do you like? I like 26331 more, but for the replica watch, AP 26240 replica has a more stable movement.

APS almost dominates the market of the replica Audemars Piguet watches, if they can develop a super clone 3126 movement for the Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph Secs@12, then no one will be able to compete with them.
