This is the latest replica from VS Factory, also the watch I think will create another sales storm in this industry. It is fully made with titanium material, the entire watch only has a weight of 100 grams. The bezel is bronze gold, I am not sure if the replica uses this material, but it looks like bronze. The green dial is perfectly in line with the green color on the bezel, and the dial has a strong retro flavor, I like it very much. The movement inside is very stable even it is modified on basis of a Sea-gull.
This is a Panerai replica watch made by HW Factory, which has been in this industry for years and mainly produce replicas of Panerai with manual winding movement. There are classic Panerai models like PAM 005 and PAM 111 from this watch maker. This Panerai PAM 177 is made with titanium and has a brushing finish on the case, bezel and crown bridge. The clone ETA 6497-2 movement inside is very stable.
In our market, IWC has two best-selling models, one is Portuguese 7 Days Power Reserve, the other is the Big Pilot, both watches have best replicas made by Z Factory, especially this IW501004, which is made with titanium and has very classic color combination, is only made by Z Factory. And ZF does not let us down, the quality of this replica is super.
The case is made with high grade titanium and has fine satin finish. The case size is the same as that of genuine, it is measured to be 46.2mm in diameter and 15.4mm in thickness.
There are still some people doubting the power reserve at 3 o’clock is not real, this power reserve has had a real function since 10 years ago. Look at the first picture below, the small hand on the power reserve indicator is between number 5 and number 6. After I winding the watch, the small hand points at number 7, this state means the watch has enough energy.
The dial looks very clean. The edge of the hour hand and minute hand as well as the end of the second hand are blued steel, they also look very clean with burr. The white date number is exactly in the center of the window.
The titanium case has a very good finish. Many watches made by other factories can not achieve the quality level of ZF. The engravings on the crown are also correct.
The brown leather band is soft and durable, it features a titanium clasp with correct engravings.
The dial has a correct lume, which is strong and will last.
Conclusion:
If you like IWC watches and want to buy a replica, two highly recommended models are Portuguese 7 Days and this Big Pilot, both are made by Z Factory. This IW501004 is perfect and not like other replicas, it does not have flaws on case finish and dial details, and the movement is also very stable.
This IWC Mark XX Patrouille Suisse has a great outlook, now two factories are making a super clone of it, they are M+ and V7. Before introducing the replica from both factories, I want to give a brief introduction about M+ and V7. Actually both watch makers have been in this industry for years, V7 is more well-known and makes more watches, including Mark 18, Portofino, Breitling Navitimer and Chopard. M+ Factory is more low-key, they only make some models of IWC, Tudor and Bell Ross, but M+ has a very strict quality control standard.
Before V7 released this replica, the watch from M+ Factory has been in the market for one month. M+ ships this watch with one extra rubber band in black or white, while V7 ships this watch with one warranty card and one tag. In the following pictures, the left watch is from M+, the right one is made by V7. The quality of M+ is better.
Both factories use titanium as case material, but the sandblasted finish on the M+ is much better, it looks and feels more refined. On V7, the sandblasted finish is a bit rough, especially on the bezel.
The second hand is a big tell. M+ makes the second hand correct, because the tip is straight. While on V7, the tip of the second hand is bent, not correct.
The dial lume, both green, but on M+, the green lume light is stronger.
Movement:
M+ Factory uses a Japanese Miyota 9015 automatic movement. The adjustment of time and date is the same as that of genuine watch. Pull out the crown to the first clicking position, rotate the crown clockwise to adjust date. V7 Factory uses an Asian clone ETA 2892 movement that is developed by Sea-gull, the date adjusting is different, you pull out the crown to the first clicking position, rotate the crown anticlockwise and the date number in the window will change. V7 also offers a Swiss movement option, but the price is very high.
Both factories have a black nylon band on the watch, the lines on the nylon band of M+ are finer. The buckle has color difference and structure difference. M+ uses a pin buckle, while on V7, it is a quick-release system for the buckle. I recommend the pin buckle on M+, because it is stronger and does not easily drop off.
The quick remove pin buckle on V7
And the last picture shows you the crown difference. On the right photo, it is the crown of V7, which seems to be bigger and higher than the one on the left(M+). I remembered that genuine watch does not have that big crown on the titanium IWC Mark XX.
My conclusion:
Buy the M+ version, this factory has a better quality on details finish.
M+ Factory has produced a lot of high quality replica watches in recent months, most of them are Tudor, but their IWC replicas are also very welcomed in this area. This one has a case that is made with titanium, the matt finish on the case is super. The case is measured to be 40mm in diameter and 10.6mm in thickness. The replica is equipped with a Miyota 9015 movement, which is very reliable.
This is the latest version from VS Factory, I think this will also be the final version of the replica. I still remember that VS Factory firstly made the replica of this watch in 2020, now VS Factory finally uses a titanium bracelet on the replica. It is a full titanium replica watch now, titanium case and titanium bracelet.
If you bought one before Jan. 2 of 2025, it must be with a stainless steel bracelet.
The color of the bezel insert is correct, dial details and engraving on the back are closest to that on genuine model.
The mesh bracelet is difficult to be made because it is titanium. The weight of the bracelet is only 37.6 grams, which is 20 grams lighter than the previous stainless steel mesh bracelet. The clasp is also titanium made.
The entire watch is about 95 grams.
Use your finger to open that “OMEGA” metal sheet.
And insert the other end of the bracelet, and put the stud in the hole to fasten. Does it look the same as the genuine?
The movement inside is a clone 8806, which is modified on basis of a Sea-gull 2824.
Rotate the crown counter-clockwise to loosen until it pops out.
Then rotate the crown clockwise to wind the watch.
Pull out the crown to the first click position, then you can adjust the hand to set time.
This is the latest Tudor replica watch which M+ Factory just released, it is also one of the Tudor Pelagos FXD replica watches M+ has made in recent months. This replica is made with titanium material like the genuin e watch, its case is measured to be 42mm in diameter and 13mm in thickness. Its rotatable bezel has a black ceramic insert. The watch comes with a green fabric band which features the special French Naval Aviation roundel.
Movement: Clone 3235 automatic Case: 42mmx12mm, Titanium Bezel: Ceramic Crystal: Sapphire with etched Rolex crown at 6 o’clock Dial: Black Bracelet: Titanium
The best replica of this Rolex YachtMaster is made by TW+ Factory. I do not know why VS still has not produced this replica watch since many watch fans need a super clone one. This one from TW+ Factory is just a middle quality replica.
Movement: Asia clone ETA 2892 Case: Titanium, 40mmx11mm Crystal: Sapphire with AR Coating Dial: Grey Bracelet: Nylon Cladded Leather strap Water resistant: 30m
This replica watch was very popular in the past, especially when GF this factory still in this industry, now GF has been closed forever. If you still want a good replica of this watch, now BLS factory makes one at good price.
