About this replica IWC watch, just go with V7 factory. They offer two movement options, one is Sea-gull 2892, the other is this Swiss SW300. For Sea-gull 2892, the movement plate and auto rotor have been decorated to look of IWC Calibre 35111, but for the Swiss movement option, it also has “INTERNATIONAL WATCH CO.” engraving on the auto rotor, not a naked movement.
IWC makes one of the most popular pilot’s watches. many military watch fans also love to collect IWC Pilot watches. Among these Swiss watch brands, besides Panerai, IWC is my favorite brand, not only it brings us Portuguese series, which is one of the most popular dress watches in the world, but also IWC unveils their simple and elegant Pilot’s military watch line. Mark series is the most simple model in IWC’s whole Pilot’s watch line. From Mark XVI to Mark XVIII, IWC maintains the traditional features of their Pilot’s watch but also added new elements, this is interesting. Having been tired of seeing so many prim watch design, some new material and design used on the watch are enough to attract our attention. Like this Mark XVIII IW327006 replica made by GS factory, it uses Titanium material in case, and this if the first time for me to see a Mark XVIII watch made with Titanium, it is good, while the stainless steel model published before is also very nice.
Titanium case looks a bit grey, with old brown leather strap, such design adds a lot of retro favor to the watch. Titanium case makes the watch have several advantages which stainless steel watch can not compare. First, the titanium case makes this watch much lighter in weight, the feeling is more obvious when you wear it. Second, the matt finish on the titanium case of this Mark XVIII is more scratch resistant, which is re-service friendly. The matt finish of the case is more like sandblasted, which is very exquisite.
The dial is black, which is in micro-sandblasted finish. All hour markers, including the Arabic numbers, are glowing strong green lume light in the dark conditions. The micro-sandblasted texture of the dial is exactly in line with the matt finish of the titanium case. Three hands on the center have blue edge, while the end of the second hand is in blue. The blue color usage increases the visibility of the hands, but I prefer them to be black. Date aperture is updated with correct structure. Date font is white in black background, the entire date window has a multilayer structure like genuine, the thickness of date font is also correct.
Case back is also sandblasted titanium, behind it, there is an Asia clone IWC 35111 movement that is based on modification of Asia ETA 2892. Most IWC Mark replica watches are equipped with Asia 2892 because it is very reliable. The exclusive movement for IWC Mark series. The replica is fitted with a brown leather band, which also comes with one nylon strap for free. By the way, the pin buckle on the strap has the same finish as case.
This watch is the new addition to our collection of IWC Mark replica watches. Now it is very cost-efficient for you to buy this watch, because you will get one pair of nylon straps from the factory for free.
IWC is one of my most favorite brands which I will choose to wear as a dress watch. Its Pilot, Portofino and Portuguese are very popular, they are also replicated by a lot of watch manufacturers in our market. Among all Pilot’s watches from IWC, the best-selling ones are Big Pilot Prince and Mark series models. There are several generations of IWC Mark from XVI to XVIII, today, there are still a lot of watch fans who love IWC Mark XVI. Mark XVIII was just published by IWC, two years ago, right? This watch has inherited the classic design of Mark XVI, but it has not reached the same sales height. I do not know any new features used on Mark XVIII. In the past, MK factory made a replica IWC Mark XVI and it became their best seller, afterwards, MK released several new improved editions of Mark XVI, now the ultimate edition of IWC Mark XVI replica has been out of stock, you can not buy it online, but if you have a secret contact with the boss of MK factory, you can get one. About this IWC Mark XVIII replica I am going to review, it is not made by MK or V6, I got this watch from a store in the morning, they did not tell me the factory which the watch came from, but it uses a genuine Swiss ETA 2892 movement.
The factory bought a genuine IWC Mark XVIII watch, all watch parts are disassembled and then perfectly cloned, this is the only replica watch with all components that could be interchanged with original. The case is made of 316L stainless steel and measured to be 40mm in diameter, case thickness is only 11mm. The case is fully brushed with smoothly polished bezel, touch the case corner and edge, you will not get any scratch feeling because the case has a polished edge. There are six notches on the case back for you to open the back with a special tool. An airplance is on the center of the back, it is the classic logo of IWC Pilot. The outer edge of the case back is polished, which forms a high contrast with the brushed center.
The replica watch has a black dial. Mark series has the simplest and most elegant dial among all Pilot’s watches. Like other Pilot’s Mark watches, this Mark XVIII’s dial has a very simple design, but the dial readability is good. A lot of Pilot’s watches from other Swiss brands also refer to the dial design of IWC Mark series because it is so classic. White hour markers on black dial increase the readability of whole dial, the square markers at 3, 6, 9 and triangle mark at 12 are applied with white luminescence, so, four hour markers on the dial will emit a strong green light, so are hour and minute hand.
The band is made of genuine calf skin leather, it is black on the outside, while the back side that touches your skin is in orange color. The whole leather band has black hand stitching. The pin buckle is perfectly molded, clean appearance with obvious edges and corners. The buckle has a brushed surface on the front, while its edge is smoothly polished. The lettering “IWC” is deeply engraved on the buckle. The back of the steel buckle also has correct engravings.
