Luxury Replica Watch Buying Guide

Many people, including seasoned collectors, are confused when they try to distinguish between genuine and fake watches. Is it a trick? Don’t think of these words as synonyms. In this guide, you’ll learn about the huge difference between these two types of luxury fake watches and how they can help you become a more knowledgeable shopper and collector
A real watch is undisputed in origin, and not a replica or copy. This means that for something to be authentic, it has to be totally real. Authentic watches are genuine pieces from brands – think of the big players like Rolex, Tudor, Omega, Patek Philippe, and more.
We use the word authentic in the industry to distinguish between genuine watches and fakes that are widely copied and sold. When the dealer gets the watch, the first thing they do is check the authenticity of the watch. As a buyer, you should do the same. As a buyer, the first step in ensuring that you get a real watch is to buy it directly from a brand or a trusted dealer who can make sure it’s genuine.
But how can you distinguish if a watch is authentic? Well, we’ve made some useful guides to help educate buyers and collectors – both on what’s real, and how to spot inauthentic details.
To be an original watch, a watch must be a real watch. Because when you see a watch listed as original, it means that it is a real watch from the brand and has not been updated or changed since it was made and initially sold. Sometimes in the industry, we also call the original watch an “honest” watch. When we look at used fake clocks, especially old ones, we usually look for originality. This means looking for the right factory-mounted parts, whether they are scratched, notched, or faded.
We also look for things like custom details that were added after purchasing, like diamonds or enhanced bezels which were later-era additions and unoriginal to the piece. There are also a lot of buyers and collectors who will favor replica watches that have never had a polishing or servicing that could have stopped the natural aging process of the timepiece.
Decades ago, when people bought luxury watches like Rolex, it was perfectly normal for them to maintain, polish or spare parts. The problem is that while the company is using truly post-modern parts, they are still not the original parts or functions of the watch. Because this is a very common practice, if an antique watch is completely original, it is very special and valuable.

Top Lady Watches from Our List

Every two years, it rolls back and forth, every two years, we hide behind the sofa, cover our eyes, cross our fingers, and the only biennial auction of replica watches — bonkers-bonanza — becomes something we can take a bite of as watch lovers. The auction, scheduled for November 9 in Geneva, has undoubtedly become a beacon in watchmaking history, not just for the often thrilling sale of luxury watches, but for the remarkable cause it supports.
The Only Watch auction was founded in 2005 to raise money to support the fight against Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Some of the best names in watchmaking have launched unique watches, and the money will go towards further research into the debilitating condition that affects thousands of people around the world.
So far, each version of this well-intentioned campaign has raised a few issues, but this year’s unique ideas from the 50 contributing brands may reflect a shift of attitudes in the industry more than ever.
Above all, the exhibition showcases striking works that are clearly designed for women. While it’s true that the replica watch industry has undergone a positive transformation, it’s worth noting that more than 10 percent of watches submitted to the industry are for women. Even though the rate is not too much, but it is a great number when considering how much easier it is to sell a unique watch to a man than it is to a woman (mainly because of market size). watches for lady IMG_2580
So the first of the top five is a watch for high-end jewelry lovers. Quartz (in this case ETA01) driven jewelry pieces like Boucheron Ajouree Amvara are often received from fans of watches, as they are really more like Philippe Dufour’s masterpiece, but I celebrate the growing number of serious watches by women, and there must be a place for these intersecting fake Rolex watches.
This may not be the brand you could imagine seeing on this list. Given that the watch is 45 millimeters in diameter, it’s not clear why it’s here. But here’s my reason: the fake watch uses a ‘classic’ feminine palette, materials, and decor. While there’s no rule that men can’t wear light blue or blue topaz, it’s just not common. As soon as I saw this Hublot, I was sure it looked best on a woman’s wrist.
On the right woman’s wrist, this piece is the most revealing of the series. It is a strong brand name, an uncompromising diameter, an unabashed expression of Hublot’s technology, and a statement of power and status that is nothing else on this list. This is a watch that you coordinate your powder blue Ferrari with a matching sunseeker yacht. It’s a brazen, unfettered journey of confidence that you see every day in the male watchmaking industry. It’s a rare style that looks very nice on a woman’s wrist. That’s why it’s cool,

Do you except New IWC Pilot’s Watches for SIHH 2019?

As we all know, the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) is one of the most important annual exhibitions in the watch industry, which will start on Monday (January 14th, 2019). There are four new IWC Pilot’s Watches going to appear at the show this year, let’s take a view of the new IWC Pilot’s Watches for SIHH 2019 firstly.
Thanks to Steve Boultbee-Brooks and Matt Jones, founders of the Boultbee Flight Academy, a restored 1943 Spitfire aircraft will embark on a journey around the world, starting next summer. Except for being a supporter of the project, IWC has also released Spitfire editions of their celebrated Pilot’s Watch models to commemorate the partnership. One of them is the new IWC Pilot’s replica Watch Timezoner Spitfire Edition ‘The Longest Flight’ (ref. IW395501). 
With only 250 limited pieces, the new style brings together the patented Timezoner mechanism (which displays another time zone via the rotating bezel) with an in-house automatic movement for the first time. Inspired by the appearance of the Spitfire’s cockpit, the new edition sports a 46 mm stainless steel case, black dial, and green textile strap.
While another new IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Spitfire (ref. IW387902) takes its design cues from the 1948 Mark 11 navigation watch created for the Royal Air Force. Featuring a 41 mm bronze case, olive green dial, and brown leather strap, making the new IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Spitfire looks like a vintage watch, while inside the case sits the modern in-house IWC 69370 automatic chronograph movement. Additionally, the soft-iron inner case that protects the movement against disruptive magnetic forces, the exterior case back is made from titanium.
What should we point out is that 41 mm is a reduced size for the typically oversized Pilot’s Watch chronograph collection. As for the watch enthusiast community, we are sure they will prefer the smaller case sizes of vintage watches.
At present, the most exclusive model among the four new IWC Pilot’s replica Watches for SIHH 2019 is the Big Pilot’s Watch Constant-Force Tourbillon Edition ‘Le Petit Prince’ (ref. IW590303). Not only is this timepiece the first IWC pilot’s watch to be fitted with a constant force tourbillon mechanism, but also it’s fashioned from a material that the company calls ‘hard gold’ which is a new blend of 18k red gold that is obviously more durable than traditional 18k gold alloys. Since IWC will only make 10 pieces of this highly-exclusive Pilot’s Watch, actually it is quite a rare watch.
A vibrant sunburst blue dial is fitted inside the large 46.2 mm ‘hard gold’ case, which houses a moon phase display, a power reserve indicator, and a tourbillon – all placed alongside the familiar, propeller-shaped center hands and stylized Arabic numerals. From the reverse side of the case, you can see the manually wound, in-house Caliber 94805 movement.
IWC has offered a series of TOP GUN watches named after the U.S. Navy’s Strike Fighter Tactics Instructor Program since 2007, to meet the standards of today’s elite jet pilots. For the newest edition of the modern military-inspired timepiece, the new IWC Pilot’s Watch Double Chronograph TOP GUN Ceratanium (Ref. IW371815) is fashioned from IWC’s proprietary Ceratanium material, which combines hard ceramic with lightweight titanium.
Due to the innovative material, the 44 mm Ceratanium case of the new TOP GUN watch is resistant to scratching, corrosion, and does not reflect any light, which could be distracting to pilots during flight dangerously. The black case is fitted with a black dial, black hands, and a black rubber strap resulting in IWC’s first all-black Pilot’s Watch never made before. With the Caliber 79230 automatic movement, the new watch supplies the watch with a split-seconds chronograph function except for its time, date, and day features.
As usual, what we said pre-SIHH announcements are just the tip of the iceberg of numbers of new glamorous timepieces. However, no matter what other brands’ new editions will launch, we are always looking forward to the new top IWC Pilot watches we are talking about.

The Rolex Seamaster and Speedmaster watches: A Deeper Look

The Seamaster and Speedmaster are no doubt two of the most impressive and important watches in the replica Rolex catalog. Boasting their glorious past, the two models have carved their places in our culture. One landed on the moon and the other became a defining feature of an iconic film character, 007. At first glance, the Seamaster and Speedmaster may look similar and have a lot in common, while if you are more technical, you would know the main difference between them.  watches
To commemorate Rolex’s 100th anniversary, The first fake Seamaster was released in 1948. The model added to the brand’s existing dive watch products, like the Marine. The Seamaster, known for its clean and straightforward appearance, features a brushed and polished stainless steel case, a black tropical dial with luminous hour markers, and sapphire crystal. These characteristics have remained through numerous upgrading. The original model was 38mm. However, the later models are available in larger sizes.
The Speedmaster was first released in 1957 for sports and racing chronograph. It later became well known after Buzz Aldrin took it during the first lunar landing. Similar to the Seamaster, the Speedmaster features a simple and minimal style with a brushed and polished stainless steel case, black tropical dial with luminous hour markers, and sapphire crystal, and these features have remained largely unchanged throughout the countless variations of the model. Once again, just as with the Seamaster replica watch, the original Speedmaster measured 38mm, but more modern variations offer larger sizes as well.
A few particular characteristics differentiate the Speedmaster. Except for its real racing look and feel, It was the first model to showcase the brand’s now-iconic triple register dial. Also, the racing-inspired tachymeter scale on the bezel is another distinctive feature. It is used to calculate speed based on travel time or measure distance based on speed. The Speedmaster was the first chronograph fake watch to feature the tachymeter scale on the bezel as opposed to on the dial. The large arrow hands are another distinguishing design of the replica watch. Finally, the original Speedmaster comes with a Caliber 321 manual-wind movement. Newer models, like the 60th Anniversary Limited Edition, feature the Caliber 1861 manual-wind movement.

Four Decades Partnership Between Wimbledon and Rolex

In 1978, Rolex, the luxury watchmaker built a partnership with the sport of tennis. That year, Rolex became the official timekeeper at Wimbledon, the oldest and most famous tennis tournament in the world. From that time, tennis has become an important facet of the iconic brand. 116333-20130808B-6 116333-20130808B-7
Rolex has built partnerships with other Grand Slam tournaments, like the Australian Open, as well as other events, like the Shanghai Masters, BNP Paribas Open, and Monte-Carlo Masters. Moreover, they’ve enlisted many top players in the sport as ambassadors for the brand. This year is particularly more special. It marks the 40th anniversary of this long term partnership. At the 2018 Wimbledon tournament, fake Rolex is celebrating forty years of cooperating with the tennis industry, back where it began.
Roger Federer, Rolex’s most important ambassador, took home his first Grand Slam win at Wimbledon in 2003. He has obtained a record eight titles at The Championships, all while proudly representing the watchmaker brand. After games, you can find him sporting one of several pieces from his collection, including a replica Sky-Dweller, fake Oyster Perpetual Platinum, Daytona, Datejust, or GMT Master II. Federer doesn’t consider they are a good luck charm or what has led him to his victories. It’s simply his unmatchable talent and replica Rolex.
To commemorate this milestone event, Rolex has placed many current tennis stars in their 40 Love campaign, like Federer, Wozniacki, and Muguruza, along with tennis legends like Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, and Chris Evert. The ads showcase the slogan, “It not only tell time. but also tells history.” This represents the great importance of the heritage between the brand and the sport.
The Rolex replica Datejust 41 IS another important piece of the partnership, it is the unofficial fake watch of Wimbledon. Like The Championships, the Datejust has a long history. It was the first self-winding, water-resistant wristwatch with a date window on the dial. Since its debut, it had been regarded as the modern archetype of the classic watch and the pioneer for other favorite inexpensive Rolex models like the Explorer and Submariner.
Wimbledon started in 1877, it took place at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London. Although Rolex attended the event just about 100 years after the first tournament, they’ve since become synonymous with the games. Now, it’s hard to imagine the game without the Rolex reference clock as a timekeeper. The two are the perfect pair, each valuing a commitment to tradition, excellence, and innovation.

The Importance of Black Color for Popular Replica Watches

Timeless, suave, sophisticated, the color black is mainstream in everyone’s closet. A valuable watch with a black dial or black strap is as essential to one’s wardrobe as the black suit or little black dress and here are some of our top picks. rolex
A watch released in 1971 for adventure seekers, the Explorer II experienced an overhaul in 2011 in honor of the watch’s 40th anniversary. The stainless steel Oyster case of the Explorer II 216570 is enlarged to an amazing 42mm while the intense black dial is set with bigger hands, a larger orange 24-hour arrow-tipped hand, and large luminescent hour markers – all for optimal legibility even in the most extreme elements. The 24-hour bezel allows the wearer to differentiate between day and night when searching out the sun is not an option.
A complete classic diver’s replica watch, this Submariner 1680 from 1978 features the original black dial with an appealing patina for extra retro appeal. Heightening the vintage vibe is the customized hand-stitched Italian black leather strap with stainless steel buckle. The 40mm stainless steel Oyster case is decorated with a waterproof screw-down crown, rotatable black bezel with white graduations, and automatic movement within. The acrylic crystal protecting the face is equipped with the iconic replica Rolex Cyclops lens for easy reading of the date window at 3 o’clock.
The replica GMT-Master is a globetrotter’s indispensable travel companion with its two time zones for home and away. This black GMT-Master 16758 with automatic movement is from the early 80s and features an 18k yellow gold 40mm Oyster case together with the original 18k yellow gold Jubilee bracelet. The beveled detailing around the black bezel and black “nipple” dial give the piece added interest, while the gold hour indices and hands contrast well with its black background. The 16758 also boasts a sapphire crystal instead of the acrylic crystal found on its predecessors.
The size is small, while this President Lady Datejust 69178 circa 1982/83 packs an intense, dark and sultry punch. With its 18k yellow gold 26mm Oyster case with fluted bezel, to its black tapestry dial with raised gold baton indexes and new Rolex black leather strap with fake Rolex tang buckle, this Presidents’ timepiece for her is a statement in stylish luxury. Aside from its good looks, the Datejust 69178 is of course an officially certified “Superlative Chronometer” powered by an automatic movement with the quick-set date function, which can be seen clearly under the feature Cyclops lens.
In conclusion, the black color will always be the most classical and will never be out of style.

Best Selling Vintage Rolex GMT-master Watch Replica

It seems that more and more people love vintage Rolex watches nowadays. And I have written several articles on the vintage replica Rolex watches, which are all selling very well, such as Daytona Paul Newman, Double Red Sea-Dweller, and so on. They are all best sellers and there are inquires about Daytona Paul Newman each day. Today, I will talk about another vintage Rolex, which is a GMT-Master Rolex 1675. In fact, I already gave a review about a vintage Rolex GMT Master Blue/Red Bezel here before, and it raised a hot discussion on my blog that time, now I am going to write a post about another vintage GMT Master 1675, which has a black bezel. This fake watch was just released by the BP factory not too long time ago. rolex rolex-078985_04
There are two factories producing vintage Rolex in our market, JK makes the best Rolex Daytona Paul Newman, while BP has the most sophisticated collection of vintage Rolex watches. Now the case of the replica is made of 316L stainless steel, it is measured to be 40mm in diameter and 15mm thick. The case shape and profile have no difference with modern GMT Master but have you found Rolex Crown Logo on the crown, it is fat and there is a horizontal line below the Crown Logo, but the modern GMT Master features three dots. The bezel is metal black with white GMT markers, and it has a shallow tooth design that is non-slip.
The black dial gathers all vintage features, and the GMT hand has a red stem with an arrow-shaped tip. On the dial at 6 o’clock, the white printings are “SWISS – T < 25″. All hour markers do not have a silver round edge, together with hands, they will emit strong green light in the dark. A date window has a black date font on white background, which has good readability under the black main dial.
The key point is that the fake watch works extremely accurate and stably because it uses a genuine Swiss ETA 2836-2 automatic movement, please don’t forget that it is a genuine ETA, not an Asian cloned one. As I mentioned in another post, in our market, only BP factory provides genuine Swiss ETA movement for Rolex replicas.

“Triple Six” of the Popular Replica Rolex Sea-Dweller

We take a look at a new Rolex model in the third installment of our deep dive into the Rolex Sea-Dweller history. Often nicknamed the “Triple Six” and considered a transitional reference, this Rolex Sea-Dweller brought about many changes to Rolex’s extreme diver’s watch. Today let’s explore the Sea-Dweller “Triple Six” in more detail.
It was something of an immediate opinion splitter, with many wondering just who exactly it was supposed to be for, when the original Deepsea arrived, with a waterproof rating of 12,800ft. What form of superhuman could require a fake watch constructed to survive a plunge more than three times deeper than the Sea-Dweller, a model that had always easily been a match for the rigorous world of commercial saturation diving?
In truth, of course, the answer was no one. On the contrary, it was a continuation of the replica Rolex spirit. The reason the legendary watchmaker has now entered its second century at the forefront of horology is it’s constant striving to be better—not just than its competitors, but also better than it was itself yesterday.
The then-new and now vintage Rolex Sea-Dweller Triple Six boasted many changes. To begin with, its water-resistance doubled to 4.000 feet. As a tool watch positioned for deep-sea divers, this was actually a practical and impressive enhancement. A quick refresh, the HEV is the Rolex-patented mechanism that allows watches to properly decompress when resurfacing. That is, the HEV automatically releases built-up helium from the watch. The releasing of the gasses essentially normalizes differences in internal and external pressure, thus preventing the crystal from bursting off or other damage to the watch.
The Rolex Triple Six was also the first Sea-Dweller with a sapphire crystal protecting the dial. Of course, sapphire crystal is now standard across all Rolex replica watches, particularly prized for its scratch resistance. Like all versions of the Sea-Dweller, the sapphire crystal of the replica model does not include a Cyclops magnification lens above the date window. Since all other fake Rolex date models include the Cyclops lens, this is a design detail that sets the Sea-Dweller apart from the rest and is appreciated by many.
What’s more, sitting on top of the watch was now a unidirectional bezel rather than a bi-directional one. Needless to say, this is much safer for divers since overestimating immersions times is far better than underestimating them. A super practical upgrade that the Caliber 3035 brought to the Sea-Dweller replica watch was the quickset date feature. This now meant that wearers could set the date quickly, independently of the hour hand.

Luxury Replica Vacheron Constantin Overseas Reverse-Panda Chronograph

The newest Vacheron Constantin Overseas Chronograph remains the occasional center of debate since its first unveiling two years ago. A reconfiguring of its sub-dials, alteration of its bezel and case design, and most notably the switch from a big-date display at 12 to a standard date between four and five o’clock were all contentious issues amongst the collecting community, though overall the updated model has been generally well-received. Most recently, the replica Vacheron Constantin unveiled a pair of black dialed variants including this reverse-panda dialed chronograph. Capitalizing on an ever-growing trend in the replica watch industry of late, the new dial is the first chronograph in the collection to ever feature contrasting sub-dials—a real departure from anything previously offered. It’s safe to say I’ve been a fan of the majority of the new Overseas line since day one, so taking the new reverse-panda out for a spin was something I just couldn’t turn down.
One of the vast changes that came with the newest version of the Overseas is its new in-house manufactured column-wheel chronograph movement. Good for a 52-hour power reserve, the new caliber uses a vertical clutch coupling and column wheel mechanism and is elaborately finished with Geneva striping throughout. Different from its predecessor, the caliber of the new Overseas Chronograph is visible via a sapphire display case back. It is said the caliber took Vacheron five years to develop, though they haven’t exactly reinvented the wheel here. The three-register configuration displays chronograph hours and minutes via sub-dials located at six and three o’clock, as well as running seconds located at 9.
Though there are a few changes to the new model, Vacheron thankfully didn’t reinvent the wheel with the overseas redesign. The gear-like notches in its bezel have been broadened to a six notch pattern instead of eight, and a fair bit of effort went into softening its case edges, giving it a more refined aesthetic.
On the topic of the bracelet and strap setup, this is also a major change for the new overseas line across the board. The ability to rapidly change straps on a watch has been something more and more brands have been getting on board with recently, and though the straps of the new Overseas look much akin to those of the previous version, the brand has conceived a very easy-to-use strap changing system that is fitted to every new overseas model currently available.
Having worn the fake watch for almost a week or so, I can safely say the Overseas is an easy one to bond with. Splitting my time between its integrated bracelet and rubber strap, the strap option remains the most comfortable in my books, mainly because it helps reduce the overall heft of the watch both physically and visually. In the case of the smaller 3-hand or dual time models, the Overseas could even tuck under a shirt cuff, however, the case thickness of the chronograph makes it just a touch too chunky for formal attire.

A Beautiful Replica Patek for the Cool Kids

One of the more interesting games is: “Who is Brand X after with this watch?” In some cases, the answer is totally unclear, but in the case of the new replica Patek Philippe Aquanaut Chronograph it’s a bit of a no-brainer. This is the new king-casual Patek for a new generation since it is bright orange accents on its dial, and sold with both black and bright orange straps. With the steel Nautilus in brutally short supply these days, this new Aquanaut is expected to be the new entry point into the Patek Philippe universe. Having taken a closer look at the new fake watch, we are sure it’ll hook its fair share of new replica Patek fans. watches petek_phillipe_1068815
Transferred over from the Nautilus chronograph, the automatic flyback chronograph Caliber CH 28-520 C powers the new Aquanaut, featuring central chronograph seconds and a large 60-minute chronograph counter at 6 o’clock. Different from the current versions of the Nautilus Chronograph, the Aquanaut’s subdial does not include the 12-h totalizer within said subdial, giving the dial a slightly cleaner look. The case size is also increased on this latest Aquanaut, coming in at 42mm in diameter. This is now the biggest Aquanaut on offer from the brand, surpassing the Travel Time by a modest 1.2mm. That said, not having the pushers located on the opposite side of the crown, this difference in diameter is barely noticeable when comparing the two models.
Though it’s hard to get an exact on-wrist feel of a replica watch whose strap is sized by cutting, first impressions of the new Aquanaut Chronograph are rather solid. The color combination of orange accents against its faded black/grey dial looks fantastic in person, especially when paired with its bright orange strap. Those wanting to stay a touch more understated (without being boring) will appreciate the black strap combination just as much. I’m the first to admit that though I can appreciate the spectacular quality and execution of all things Patek, I generally find their watches a touch too conservative for me to lust after personally, however, this Aquanaut might just be the piece that draws me into the fold.
