MKS Replica IWC Spitfire

Since the release of Panerai PAM 382 Bronzo, more brands started to publish their bronze models, among these brands, IWC is the most popular brand that has several attractive bronze watches, in my previous posts, I introduced several IWC bronze watches, they are Spitfire Chrono IW387902 and Spitfire UTC MJ271, the former is made by Z factory, the Spitfire UTC is coming from XF factory, both are good quality replica watches.

In my memory, among all replica watches that are made with bronze material, the most popular is PAM 382 from Panerai, now this watch is still a best seller in our market. Next it is the Tudor Black Bay Bronzo made by XF factory. Today, we will welcome another bronze watch from IWC, please check photos in this post, I think it will become another hot IWC replica watch, based on the design of classic IWC Pilot, this Spitfire will absolutely beome a hot IWC under its bronze tone outlook.

MKS is one of the earliest factory that makes good quality replica IWC watches, especially the Mark series replica watches made by them, very popular all over the world, the factory also got its name MKS because of this. Now back to this bronze Spitfire, like other bronze watches, it has a classic match, bronze case with green dial. The entire bronze case is matt finished, the case is solid bronze, so you do not worry about fade of bronze tone, but it will absolutely be oxidized. In producing IWC replica watches, MKS has multiple core technologies and years of experience, so they make the case of every IWC watch very accurately. The size of this watch is 39mm*10.5mm, very suitable for most people.

The dial is green, but it does not look so green, it is a little dark, maybe this is the green dial in bronze watch that is closest to original watch. Hour markers adopt Arabic numerals in white color, the lettering “SPITFIRE” is in bright red. There is a opening window at 3 o’clock that is displaying current date, black date font in white background, it is clearly readable.

Brown leather strap is a perfect match for this IWC bronze watch, it is in a color very close to bronze tone of the case. By the way, MKS factory adopts imported Italian calfskin leather to make this leather band. Now it comes to the inside machine, the replica uses a genuine Japanese Miyota 9015 automatic movement, this is the automatic movement that has the fewest repairing rate in our market, the No. 1 best movement, with Miyota 9015, it is not a problem at all for this replica to work more than three years.

Replica IWC Pilot Chrono Spitfire

PAM 382, which was published by Panerai several years ago, is still very hot today, its replica made by VS factory is also one of the best-selling replica Panerai watches. But since 2019, we did not see too many new PAMs in the market, while IWC has become the main role in recent two months, I posted reviews on several new IWC watches here before, one of them is IWC Pilot Spitfire MJ271, which comes from XF factory and made of bronze. Today, I want to introduce another bronze watch from IWC, it is a Pilot Chrono Spitfire model, with reference of IW387902. Different from previous Spitfire MJ271, this IWC Bronze replica watch is made by Z factory, we usually call it ZF.

I do not know why ZF and XF made two bronze watches at the same time, maybe they saw the potential sales of such watch because the big success of PAM 382 Bronzo. Hope they are right, although they still have not made the two IWC Bronze watches popular.

IW387902 is a Pilot Chrono watch, ZF installed an Asia Valjoux 7750 movement inside that can achieve a full chronograph function. Actually Asia Valjoux 7750 is a very common Chinese chronograph movement, but it is very stable, having been used as a basic calibre for chronograph watches for years since the birth of replica watch industry, the stability of this movement has been tested to be extremely high.

Let’s back to the most important parts of the watch, its case and dial. 43mm case is not large, but that does not include the size of crown and chrono buttons. The case is made of solid bronze, it is brushed, the bronze will be oxidated, so you will see some changes happen on the bronze case when time goes by. Case back is not bronze, it is stainless steel and have been engraved with a big aeroplan on the center.

Green dial has hours, minutes, small seconds, day, date and chronograph counters, so many things, but the dial does not look busy, however, it has a high readability. Arabic numeral markers are in white, which is highly contrast with the green background. The tone of luminescence applied on markers of 3, 6, 9 and 12, as well as the golden edge of hands, they are exactly in line with the bronze tone on the case.

By the way, the replica watch uses a brown leather strap, which is made of high quality calf skin leather. The brown leather band has a super soft texture, which is very comfortable to wear. Besides, the buckle attached on the band is also made of bronze, there are the same engravings as genuine on this bronze buckle. ZF does not offer other strap options for this watch, in my opinion, a green nylon band is also very suitable for this IWC.

Replica IWC Spitfire UTC

Pilot is a big series of IWC, sometimes I think it is more popular than Portuguese. Spitfire is a sub-series of IWC Pilot, it is loved by many watch fans due to its sporty outlook. Many materials have been used on the case of IWC Pilot Spitfire, including stainless steel, ceramic and titanium, but today, it is my first time to see a IWC watch made of bronze material. Actually bronze has already been used in watch industry, as you know, some popular models like Panerai PAM 382 and Zenith Pilot. Bronze could be easily oxidized, but it is exactly the oxidation process that offers a lot of fun for our wearers.

Today, I want to show you an unique replica watch made by XF factory. It is a replica IWC Spitfire watch, which is made of bronze in case and bezel.

The case is 39mm in diameter, compared with other sporty brand watches, it looks a bit smaller, but it can absolutely fit the wrist of most men’s wrist. The case is measured to be in only 10mm, not too thick like sports watches of other Swiss brands. The entire case is brushed, case back is solid but not made with bronze, it is stainless steel, there is an airplance on the center of the case back, look at the case back, it has a sandblasted finish.

Green dial is the best match for the bronze case. There are Swiss lume material applied on hands and hour markers at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock. The green light emitting from the dial is really strong, after absorbing enough light during the day, the watch can offer you a great lume in the dark conditions and you can read the time from the dial more convenient.

Brown leather strap is in line with the bronze tone of the case. The leather band is made with genuine calf skin leather imported from Italy. The leather band is fitted with a tang buckle, which is also made with bronze and brushed. The buckle is deeply engraved with lettering “IWC”.

Inside the case, the movement is an Asia clone ETA 2836-2 automatic, it is a very stable automatic movement that has been widely used in our industry. The replicas with basic functions like hours, minutes, seconds and date are more willing to use this movement. By the way, the replica watch is water resistant to 30 meter.
