At the heart of the Deepsea’s case is Rolex’s patented Ringlock system, which uses a super hard, nitrogen-alloyed steel central ring to internally support both the extra-thick sapphire crystal and the Grade 5 titanium caseback. While the Ringlock system is largely responsible for the overall increase in the case size of the Deepsea, it actually enables the watch to be smaller than it otherwise would be, had it were to follow a more traditional case design while still retaining its same colossal depth rating.The primary purpose of the Ringlock system is to reduce the amount of stress placed on the case of the watch. As pressure on the watch increases at greater depths, the majority of it gets exerted on the front and back surfaces of the watch. Since the nitrogen-alloyed stainless steel compression ring internally supports both the crystal and the caseback of the Deepsea, the amount of force exerted on the actual case itself remains relatively minimal. Additionally, as the crystal and caseback get squeezed together, with the majority of the force being supported by the internal compression ring, the front and back gaskets of the watch get pressed together, ensuring an extra tight seal.The caseback on the Rolex Deepsea consists of two components: an inner caseback made from Grade 5 titanium, and an outer, screw-down caseback ring that is constructed from Oystersteel (904L stainless steel). With a traditional, single-piece, caseback design, the entirety of the pressure placed on caseback gets exerted on the case of the watch itself, particularly near the threads. By separating the caseback into two components, Rolex is able to redistribute much of the force being exerted on the rear surface of the watch. The outer, screw-down ring performs the sole duty of keeping the inner, titanium caseback tight on the watch, while the nitrogen-alloyed steel compression ring ultimately supports all the pressure being exerted on the titanium case-back itself.
Date Sizes While the first sizes of the Datejust and the Date were 36mm and 34mm (respectively), Rolex did add more size options to both collections over the years. For instance, somewhat puzzlingly, Rolex has in the past produced the Lady-Datejust and the ladies’ Date with 26mm cases, and the mid-size Datejust and mid-size Date with 31mm case sizes. However, perhaps for greater clarity between the two models, Rolex has since discontinued all of the smaller Date versions and currently only makes the Date 34. Additionally, Rolex has also ceased making the Lady-Datejust 26, replacing it with the Lady-Datejust 28. Furthermore, over the course of the last decade, Rolex has also added larger options for the Datejust.Rolex Datejust SizesThe Rolex Datejust has always offered far more metal choices and different style options compared to the Rolex Date. Although there are some vintage and discontinued Date 34 models in solid gold and two-tone steel and gold, Rolex has now simplified the choices to just two: full stainless steel or stainless steel with a white gold fluted bezel, both of which have 34mm cases and are fitted with Oyster bracelets.
All good things must come to an end, and it is as true at Rolex as anywhere else. Over the years, certain pieces have disappeared from the portfolio, either replaced with an updated version or else retired completely. Rolex actually seems to make a habit of discontinuing many of their references with little or no warning, and for reasons only they understand. In some instances, the withdrawn watches are real fan favorites, and it leaves potential customers with just one option to get hold of them.Below, we take a look at five of Rolex’s most-loved discontinued models that are now only available on the pre-owned market.Rolex has a history of marking the key birthdays of a number of its icons with some kind of out-of-the-ordinary celebration, and in 2003, the Rolex Submariner celebrated its 50th anniversary. The world’s most famous luxury dive watch marked its half-century in style with the release of the ref. 16610LV, not only the first Submariner to be fitted with a black Maxi dial, but also the first to have a green bezel.Major departure that it was for the model, it became something of an opinion splitter. There had been variations on the traditional black bezeled pieces before – blue versions (although only on gold and two-tone pieces) being the most common; however, the emerald surround on this anniversary edition led to it picking up a nickname from both the ‘for’ and ‘against’ camps. Those who loved the new colorway called it the Kermit; those less keen christened it the Vomit Sub.
Black dial is highly readable because of those large white hour markers and hands. There are numeral hour markers except at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock. The whole dial design meets the strict military requirement not only because the contrary color usage of black and white, but there are also lume material applied on markers at 3, 6, 9, 12 and central hour and minute hands, so the dial is readable even in the dark. The onion-shaped crown is an iconic feature of Big Pilot, it is very easy to open and rotate, the fit between it and the case is also perfect, so the replica could be water resistant to 50 meters.Finally, it is about the movement, which is an clone IWC 51111 automatic. The movement has a functional power reserve, so the indicator for remaining energy is working, not faux like the one on previous IWC Big Pilot replicas. If you have a chance to own such a replica, you should open the back, and will find the reason why it is is sold at a high price, and the progress the replica watch factory has made.
The middle links of bracelet are yellow gold, which exactly matches the golden fluted bezel. Both case and bracelet use solid 316L stainless steel, the watch weight is very close to real, with good polishing, it has a real hand touch and good wearing comfort.Replica Rolex GMT Master II Basel 2018 126715 Rose Gold Watch with Black/Brown Ceramic Bezel Replica Rolex GMT Master II 126715 .After Basel 2018, a lot of factories published replica watches of new models that were unveiled in Basel. Especially Rolex, there are a few new models that have catched my attention, they are GMT Master II, which not only uses different bi-color bezel, but also features a Jubilee bracelet. I introduced one 2018 GMT Master II here several weeks ago, and it got a lot of inquiries. Now I am going to post another new GMT Master II that is in full rose gold, which looks very luxury, while its bezel also adds sporty style. The replica Rolex is made by an unknown factory, but its price is not cheap because the replica uses real ceramic on bezel and the rose gold coating is thick 18K. Let’s enjoy the beauty of this art work.Replica Rolex GMT Master II Basel 2018 Rose Gold The case is made of 316L stainless steel, and there is a thick layer of 18K rose gold, which will not easily fade after a long wear. Case diameter is 40mm, a very reasonable size for mens wrist, but for some people who love large-size watches, this Rolex is a little small. The bezel is unique, Rolex never used black and brown color combination on GMT bezel before, now on this new model 126715, the black/brown ceramic bezel looks so unique. The color transition from black to brown is very natural.Replica Rolex 126715 Black Brown Bezel Dial is black, absolutely the dial is close to geuine watch, but it could not be compared with V7 replica Rolex GMT Master II watch published by Noob factory, which is the best quality GMT Master II replica watch, because it has the correct hand stack and equipped with 3186 movement. Whether from outside look or inside machine, this replica GMT watch looks more real to genuine. While this Rolex GMT Master II 126715 does not have a correct hand stack, but the GMT hand works like real. Words “GMT-Master II” are in rose gold tone, which echoes with rose gold case and bracelet. By the way, inner bezel has correct Rolex Rehaut, hour markers and hands are applied blue lume material.Replica Rolex GMT Master II Rose Gold CrownNot like 126710 GMT Master II, this watch is equipped with an Oyster bracelet that is in rose gold. Middle links are polished while two sides are brushed, this forms a sharp visual contrast.
Next, let’s see the crucial element for wrist watch, yes, its movement. This replica clones 9000 movement, basic on SEA-GULL mechanical movement. We know that the original movement uses advanced technology to improve its accuracy. It is so nice that this replica is almost owning all key capability as the genuine. About its strap, you have two choices, as you like, you can use cowhide or instead of alligator strap. It can waterproof in daily life, can adjust to more requirements.In total, this replica watch features vivid appearance and powerful movement the same as the original. A lot of key elements play an important role in its overall strength. I think you will be interested in such distinctive replica after you have known something about it. So catch this chance to enjoy your good life with it.There are a lot of watch fans are crazy about mechanical wrist watch, especially men,they can not control to fall in love with the beauty of such magical mechanical wrist watch. It is liked that they never understand why ladies so crazy for shopping sometimes. Actually, hand wound wrist watch was full of the taste of mechanical watch more than the automatic one. Perhaps in the eyes of modern people, hand wound would be more trouble to handle, and can not fit for the fast pace of life nowadays, but for someone who is obsessed with mechanical watch, they may have opposite views on this, because the glamour of hand wound watch can not be resisted. Today I am very pleased to recommend an amazing replica, which based on IWC Portuguese 545408. It has deducted the genuine perfectly in a lot of design factors. No matter its size, shape, the style of dial, all almost the same as the original one exactly. I believe that you may like it so much, now let us know something about its detail.
Although the rotating bezel serves to record dive times, this has not stopped Rolex from making a few ultra-lavish Submariners with precious gem-set bezels that forsake the tool watch nature of the model. First, there’s the white gold Submariner 116649EMBR (presented in 2010) with a bezel set with 36 emeralds and 12 diamonds. Then in 2018, Rolex introduced the white gold Submariner 116659SABR with a bezel set with nine light blue sapphires (to mimic the first 15-minute markings), 27 dark blue sapphires, and 12 diamonds.To summarize, the history and evolution of the Submariner bezel is generally divided into three generations: bidirectional bezel with aluminum insert (early-1950s – late-1970s), unidirectional bezel with aluminum insert (late-1970s – late-2000s), and unidirectional bezel with Cerachrom ceramic insert (late 2000s until present). Which is your favorite type of Submariner bezel?
As a professional diver’s watch, Rolex is willing to uses gold and other precious metal on its Submariner series. In 2017 Basel, Rolex published several new models, but I always think that those Submariner models they published before are the most classic ones, like 116610LN Black Submariner, 114060 No Date model, etc. Today, the 116613 is for Rolex fans who love two tone style. The replica Rolex Submariner 116613 is made by Noob factory, it is V7 version, absolutely the best one currently. Every detail is replicated to be closer to genuine Submariner watch. Especially the yellow gold coating on bezel and bracelet, it is 18K wrapped gold, not plated, so the gold coating will be more durable and not fade. The case is measured to be 40mm in diameter, 13mm in thickness, which is the same as genuine. Case is brushed 316L stainless steel, while the bezel tooth and crown are 18K wrapped gold. Black ceramic bezel insert features engraved yellow gold markers, the bezel is anti-clockwise rotating. Real black ceramic is used to made the bezel insert, is is more scratch resistant than plastic. Black dial echoes with the black bezel, all hour markers feature yellow gold frame and are filled with white luminous material in the centre, plus hands, they will emit blue light in the dark. Like real Submariner, the innver bezel features correct ROLEX Rehaut.
The crown logo on the buckle is not as good as gen. Movement and Crown Brand-new original ETA 25J movement, the replica Rolex Yacht-Master can be equipped with 2824 or 2836 movement, its daily inaccuracy is less than 5 seconds.SuperLume Dial and Hands The lume color has no difference between hour markers and hands.Having introduced several pieces of vintage Rolex replica watches here, and some has won the praise, especially the Daytona Paul Newman. This time I will share another vintage Rolex here, it is Milgauss 6541 replica. Genuine watch was published by Rolex in the 50s, although not as popular as other vintage models like Paul Newman, GMT 1675, Submariner Vintage 5510 and other vintage PAMs. My watch supplier told me that all vintage Rolex models in our market are manufactured by the same factory, including this Milgauss 6541, which has attracted me due to its special dial details.It is not a replica that should be called a super clone like other replicas made by Noob, J12 and V6, but I love it just because of its retro style and some special symbols. Case is 38mm in diameter, black bezel has a big triangle mark in orange color at 12 o’clock, there are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 digits and triangle markers all in white. The bezel could be unidirectional rotating. Dial is black and has special patterns, all hands are in silver tone, unique lighting second hand has a red tip that is very eye catching. Three-dimensional silver triangle marker at 3, 6 and 9, other hour markers are all yellow dots. The word “MILGAUSS” under Rolex Crown Logo is in orange color, which exactly matches the orange triangle bezel marker. I can not check how close the replica is made to genuine, but I already has all necessary features of those vintage Milgauss watches produced in that period. If you are a collector of vintage Rolex and hard to find a genuine Milgauss 6541, this one could become a perfect alternative.The replica uses a clone ETA 2836-2 automatic movement, here I made a movement test, see the result on the photo below, it said that there is only one second error each day, and the beating frequency is also the same as genuine ETA 2836-2 movement, which is 28800vph. In a word, this replica not only does well in acting as a vintage Milgauss 6541, but also offers the wearer accurate timing. It is worth buying.Today, I am about to introduce one Panerai replica watch that is engraved with Florentine motifs. Yes, it is the latest Luminor 1950 Firenze 3 Days, with a reference PAM 972. This is not the first PAM which Panerai published with Florentine motifs on case and movement. We know that PAM 604 and PAM 672 also have these special engravings, but these two PAMs are Radiomir limited editions. For PAM 972, it is absolutely the first Luminor watch with Florentine motifs. Now, in Panerai watch family, PAM 972 is also the only one Panerai Luminor watch with such unique engravings. Based on the traditional PAM 372, Panerai made this engraved version PAM 972. The replica PAM 972 Firenze here is made by V9, which is a new factory. It is said that this V9 factory now makes the best Rolex Submariner replica watches, but I do not think so. However, this Panerai Luminor Firenze PAM 972 replica made by V9 has a good quality.I do not know why Panerai makes these special engraved PAMs, whatever, the main purpose I think is to show respect to Firenze, which is the design inspiration of early Panerai watches. Actually the design concept of many modern Panerai models is also coming from this old Italy city.
Actually there are a lot of vintage Rolex in genuine watch market, but most of them have been out of stock now. So, people who love vintage Rolex turn to seek for perfect replicas of them. However, it is hard for them to get a perfect replica of vintage Rolex, sometimes it is even difficult to get one because these vintage Rolex watches are also very rare in replica watch market. Vintage watches usually appeared in Rolex series like Submariner, GMT Master II, Daytona and Milgauss. I have introduced these replicas here on my blog, for example, Daytona Paul Newman, Double Red Sea-Dweller, Comex Submariner, etc. Today, I am going to introduce another vintage Rolex Submariner replica, which was ordered by one of my clients. The watch is unique and greatly different from modern Submariner.First, these photos are 100% real photos I took with my mobile phone. This is a replica and made b JK factory that has produced a lot of vintage replica Rolex watches. The case is made of 440 stainless steel and 40mm in case diameter, the case size is almost the same as other modern Rolex Submariner, but this vintage model features a big crown on the right, which is 8mm. Under the crown logo, there is a word of “Brevette”. On the bezel, besides diver’s markings, the most unique place lies in its red triangle mark at 12 o’clock. On this vintage replica Rolex Submariner 6538, the bezel markers are not engraved.Black dial has yellowish hour markers, there are Arabic numeral hour markers of 3, 6 and 9. A big triangle mark is at 12 o’clock. The dial has a simple layout design and no date. By the way, the dial is protected by a domed plastic crystal.The replica is equipped with a black nato strap that features a SS pin buckle. Nato band is a perfect match for this vintage Rolex but this replica watch will be more perfect if the band is fitted a Rolex Crown buckle.Happy Chinese New Year! In the beginning of 2018 year, a lot of factories published several new models, some are amazing. For example, my watch contact brought me a good news and said the Noob factory just updated Submariner 116610LV again. In my mind, this is the eighth time for Noob to update this Submariner watch, actually after the previous improvement, the Rolex Submariner 116610LV replica has been so perfect and the watch itself has gotten so many compliments.
This replica with size of 44×17mm, and uses stainless steel in case and bottom so that it can has a good performance in abrasive resistance. It has brilliant blue dial together with white Arabia scale and hand, which is so easy to read the time. What’s more, it uses imported Swiss C3 noctilucent powder, which is one kind of nice material. It is star product in day time when with bright light, and it still can make watch shinning even at night. It can display Chronograph, week and date. Its surface decorates with sapphire crystal and Anti-Reflective Coating is almost covered all its whole body. It keeps beautiful and noble appearance and with good visual effect at the same time. When we see it carefully, we find that it with screw-in crown which is made of stainless steel. Its band is rubber, It will more energetic and rather active with such band . What’s more, it has water-resistance within fifty meters, it can satisfy your daily activity.
