Nautilus 5711 BBF vs DDF

Nautilus 5711 is a hot model in replica watch industry, since the 324 movement is available for usage to many factories, the competition in replica Nautilus and Aquanaut is getting tougher. Last time, DDF upgraded their clone 330 movement with an important feature, which is the hacking seconds, and in last week, BBF also brought the same 330 movement with the hacking seconds, now when customers are purchasing a top quality Nautilus 5711 replica watch, they are facing several options, BBF, DDF and 3K, because 3K will publish the 330 movement with hacking seconds soon. Among these three factories, which one makes the best Nautilus replica? Today, I will makes a brief comparison on the Nautilus 5711 between BBF and DDF. And in future if there is a chance, I will do a full comparison between these three factories.

DDF 5711

Not only its movement has been upgraded, DDF also made improvement on the dial, whose color has a more natural gradient effect.

The left watch is from BBF, the right one is from DDF. We can see BBF has a darker dial color, while the DDF has a slightly brighter blue color.

Look at the printings PATEK PHILIPPE GENEVE, but the two pictures above show you two Nautilus 5711, but both are made by DDF. This means DDF offers two versions of dial printings, both are available from DDF. Look at the following picture of the dial printing on BBF.

I also noticed the dial printings on DDF are thicker.

At last, let’s see the movement engravings on both factories.

Look at the movement engravings on DDF, they look deeper and thicker and also neater. BBF 330 movement’s engravings look shallower.

Have you checked the movement on genuine watch? Which factory makes a better movement decoration? Please tell me.

Conclusion

Both DDF and BBF make high quality Nautilus 5711 replicas, compare their dial color, dial printings, lugs shape and movement decoration, I like DDF more. Do you thick DDF 5711 is closer to genuine?

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.

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.
