A Breakdown of Replica Watch Grades: Millimeter-Level Precision and Swiss Movement Standards

Watch Encyclopedia2,388
ExcerptReplica watches are committed to restoring the original version in millimeter depth in terms of appearance, function, and even movement structure, and strive to achieve an all-round approximation from vision to operating feel. It uses customized special materials, a complex movement that imitates the original structure, and polishes the case and dials macro details...

Swiss movement 1 to 1.

This is top notch. The shell is a 1 to 1 imitation based on the actual appearance. The key is the movement. These watches will be fitted with original Swiss mass produced movements, mainly from the ETA series. There is no gain or loss of movement between the functionality and the original watch, and there is no functional contraction. However, for cost reasons, an unpolished version of the same movement can be used, as well as a lower grade movement with the same functionality. But then, such imitation watches will not be cheap.

one-to-one A-grade

This is second class, often referred to as fine imitation, and replication is just that. The first criterion for this watch is that the case is very demanding, with the real watch 1 to 1 computer laser molds, generally speaking, the production of molds for imitation watches is first class, and can develop at least millions of case equipment, this case is not usually produced by small factories. This type of imitation watch is not abundant, because the cost of molds for each case is very high, watch factories do not develop new styles at will, usually very popular styles will open the mold manufacturing. Although the choice is small, the quality is guaranteed. The case of this super clone watch is practically the same, the key is to install a domestic imitation cell phone or Japanese movement.

ordinary imitation watch

These are three levels. There are many varieties of this watch. Unlike the previous two top imitation watches, this imitation watch can be assembled at some small stalls. There are various brand products. From high-end Patek Philippe to low-end fourth-tier brands, as long as you know the style, you can basically find them. Since most of the molds are made by small factories, the accuracy of the watch case is often much lower than that of the real watch, and there is also a gap in the literal meaning of the dial. Mechanical movements such as Pearl movement, Tianjin movement, and Beijing movement are generally installed, and there are also many domestic or imported quartz movements. The high-quality casing is made of stainless steel, and some are made of alloy electroplated casing. You know, the price of steel mold equipment is the same as that of alloy mold equipment.

fake imitation watches

The workmanship of this watch is similar to that of ordinary imitation watches, but the style is not copied according to the original version of the genuine, and some of them even play fantasy without restriction, as long as the logo is the same as that of the genuine, and the rest is not the same.
