Talking about watches and inspiration can spawn some pretty interesting debates, and for good reason – especially in the dive watch category. Of course, early dive watches weren’t “inspired by” anything; dive watches were tools created with a very distinct purpose. That said, as the years went on and the dive watch category moved away from practical utility towards desirable daily-wearers, design inspiration soon came into play. Today we’re looking at luxury watches inspired by the ocean, and digging into the stories behind the creation of each piece and how they relate to the big blue beyond.As mentioned above, there is no reason to go into a Rolex Submariner history lesson here; however, the Rolex Sea-Dweller Deepsea with D-Blue dial (a variant of the original Deepsea that was first unveiled in 2008) has a very distinct connection to our world’s deepest waters.The origins of this piece come from Rolex’s involvement in (read: sponsorship of) James Cameron’s deep dive into the Mariana Trench. Though not limited in production, the piece is commemorative of the 2012 dive, and features a gradient blue to black dial that mimics the loss of light as one descends into the ocean’s depths. Additionally, the green chosen for the DEEPSEA text on its dial is matched to the color of Cameron’s Deepsea Challenger Submarine that took a prototype Rolex watch all the way down into the trench affixed to one of its robotic arms.The legacy of Jacques-Yves Cousteau is unparalleled in the world of underwater exploration, and many years ago (back in 2004 to be precise), IWC decided to become a partner of the Cousteau Society – a non-profit organization looking to continue the initiatives set out by Jacques-Yves several decades prior. From the onset of the partnership, IWC has included special limited-edition Aquatimer models in their collections, with a portion of the proceeds of each watch headed towards the organization.Of their bigger undertakings, Cousteau’s famed research vessel (named ‘Calypso’) was raised from the sea floor after sinking on account of an incident in Singapore in 1996. Progress on Calypso has been slow-going, and a fire on the ship while docked in Turkey two years ago has slowed things further. Naturally, there are rumors swirling that a redesign of the IWC Aquatimer line across the board will appear in conjunction with the vessel’s unveiling.
I have mentioned more than once that Z factory makes the best replica IWC watches, especially the replica IWC Portuguese 7 Days Power Reserve, which is considered to be the most classic watch in our market. The power reserve has reached 3 days, this is a big breakthrough. Now in the beginning of 2019, along with lots of new replica watches published by other factories, this time ZF also brought us a big surprise, they unveiled the latest models of Portuguese Annual Calendar, after the release of these four models, the dominance of Z factory in replica IWC Portuguese field is further consolidated. The following article will give a basic review of these watches and share photos with you.
Pilot is one of the most successful series IWC has ever published, it has so many classic models that a lot of people are in pursuit of them. In 2019, IWC is the winner because they unveiled several watches that deeply attracted the eyes of our watch fans, including Pilot Bronzo, Pilot Chrono Spitfire Chrono and this Spitfire IW387903. as one of the few brands that make Pilot’s watches, IWC may be is the most successful, I like the design of IWC, it is more suitable for Asian than other Swiss brands.In May 2019, I introduced one IWC Pilot replica watch that is made with bronze material, today, I want to show you another great Pilot Spitfire watch from another factory, which is Z factory. We know V6 is a big factory and they make a lot of good quality replica IWC watches, but Z factory is the dominance in replica IWC field.This replica IWC Spitfire watch from Z factory has a big advantage, that is the sapphire crystal has double AR coating, which looks a bit bluish. So, when you read the time from the dial at any angle, it will be very clear, just like the crystal does not exist.Besides the crystal, there are other two improvements Z factory has made on this replica watch. First, the circles on subdials are made more delicate, their thickness and spacing between each circle are more accurate, closer to genuine watch.
The men’s Rolex Submariner was developed in 1953 and made its official debut during Basel Watch Fair the following year. One of the first dive watches to offer a 100-meter depth rating, the Submariner essentially paved the way for the modern dive watch as we know it today. Over the years, the Submariner has seen many notable upgrades, including the addition of a date display in the 1960s, the switch from acrylic to sapphire crystals in the late 1970s, and the change from radioactive tritium to photoluminescent lume in the 1990s. The Submariner was initially only available in stainless steel; a two-tone variant didn’t become available until 1984 via the ref. 16803.That brings us to the two examples that are featured here in today’s comparison video. The Rolex 16613 made its debut in 1988 and was the final aluminum bezel Submariner. The ref. 116613 was introduced in 2009 and features a completely redesigned feature set that swapped the aluminum bezel out for a tougher Cerachrom ceramic insert and features an all-new case and bracelet design. While both references are similar, they each bring a different aesthetic to the table.The Rolex Submariner 16613 was produced for over twenty years. During that time, it became available in many variations, including either a black or blue dial and bezel set, stunning champagne or silver “Serti” dials adorned with gems, lug holes on the case or no holes, and different luminous material on the dial. Two features that remain consistent among the reference variations are the two-tone steel and gold finish of the case and the aluminum insert on the bezel.With the unveiling of the modern 116613 Submariner in Yellow Rolesor (aka two-tone stainless steel and 18k yellow gold) came a newer-style “Super Case” which, despite offering the same 40mm diameter as the ref. 16613, appears slightly larger. The lugs and crown guard are wider, and the bezel received a new mounting design, giving the case a slightly more robust appearance and refined bezel action.
Rolex Daytona 116500 Crown Second, the movement is super copy 4130. On a basis of ETA 7750, AR factory decorated the movement plates and rotor to the look of genuine Rolex 4130 Caliber, so you do not need to worry about being spotted wearing a fake Rolex even in the Rolex boutique. Rolex Daytona 116500 904L CaseThe last thing you may be concerned about is its chronograph function. The replica 116500 Daytona features real chronograph function, which works the same way as genuine Daytona. On black dial, there are three white subdials, small second hand is running on the 60-second subdial at 6, the subdial at 3 o’clock is for minutes chronograph, while the 12-hour counter at 9 is for hour chronograph. When you unscrew the button at 2 and push it down, the central big second hand will start chronograph, when push it down again, the chronograph stops, if you push down the button at 4 o’clock, the hand will immediately go back to 12 o’clock, which means the chronograph has been reset. The following is its full specification.

Among all Rolex series, YachtMaster is the only watch with countdown function because it is specially designed for Yachting racers. In previous YachtMaster models Rolex has released, the most popular one is the stainless steel YachtMaster with blue bezel, which is also sold very well in replica watch industry, I have this watch on sale, just click here. And this stainless steel YachtMaster is also much cheaper than the one I am going to review in the following.
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.
Two tone Rolex Daytona 116523, a very good watch for you to wear in daily life, however, the golden tone also lets you feel a bit luxury. The replica is the latest product of BP factory, which also makes good quality Submariner replicas and has been famous for making replica watches with goold and correct dial lume. I just got this watch from my watch supplier and took these photos for you guys.40mm in case diameter, the replica is very suitable for mens wrist, made of 316L stainless steel on base, the surface is plated with gold coating, bezel, crown, chrono buttons and the central links of bracelet all have a thick layer of gold coating being plated. Four lugs are polished while all other watch parts are brushed. The silver and golden tone of the replica mixes very well so that the replica does not look too shiny. On the dial, main black color really matches well with the golden dial details, three subdials have golden circle, hour markers are in golden and feature white luminous material, so are the hands, see the lume picture below, a strong green light and very beautiful, isn’t it?People should not doubt the chrono function of this replica Daytona, the chronograph is fully working. Modern replica watch making technology could easily achieve the chrono function, they do the best on Rolex Daytona replica, actually some AP replicas could even be equipped with Secs@12 7750 movement that are the same as genuine, so on this Daytona watch, the central second chronograph hand will start to run when you push the 2:00 button, the 4:00 button is for reset, I will take a video later to show you how to operate.The bracelet is two tone and consists of three section of links, the middle link are in golden. The two tone bracelet is the bright spot of this replica. All links of the bracelet are made of solid stainless steel, although not that high quality texture as original, the replica will have a similar weight to genuine 116523 because of being equpped with a solid bracelet. By the way, the clasp has the same structure as genuine Daytona, the engraving on clasp is sandblasted finished and feels very delicate, it is really hard to describe such texture feeling, you must have one by yourself.This Tudor watch was published in 2017 Basel, it is the first two tone watch Tudor has released. After all Tudor is a sub-brand of Rolex, it followed Submariner’s design idea, firstly, in the early development, Tudor published several Black Bay models that feature different dial color, in the second stage, Tudor started to produce some models in two tone or full gold, this is like the development track of Rolex Submariner. In my opinion, Tudor Black Bay is the cheaper version of Rolex Submariner. Today, I want to introduce a two tone replica Tudor watch here, overall, this is a high quality replica watch, and two tone style allows you to wear the watch in more formal occasions.The case is made of 316L stainless steel, bezel tooth, bezel engravings and crown have 18K yellow gold coating, which does not fade even after one-year wearing.
