- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- Ever wanted to know what the insides of a FAKE ROLEX look like? This video shows and compares an authentic Rolex calibre 3135 with a 600$ replica movement!
Do you spot the differences?
This is an additional upload to the video we posted on our German channel @WATCHVICE 😊Many people enjoyed it so I wanted to share it with you on here, too!
🛑 I absolutely do not encourage buying replica watches. There are tons of quality watches within the 100$ to 600$ price range that offer authentic design and craftsmanship you'd definitely be better off buying!

This is an additional upload to the video we posted on our German channel Watchvice 😊 (hence the manly hands :-D)Many people enjoyed it so I wanted to share it with you on here, too!
Thanks, I'll check it out!
Thank you Jenny. Sad not to hear you. However, it‘s a really good video and gives an impression not only about the looks, but also about the sounds.
Wow, Jenni! Just wow! Thank you!
This fake is slightly better to recognize as a fake as one i did see a couple of days ago(super scary close, even). My friend(over 25 years in restoring clocks and watches also does maintenance) he had to look 5 times at some parts of the movement. It even used the same steel variant or as close as can be in hardness.
Looks great, vintage on the inside.!
That videos watch is a mere imitation, not a real clone. Ziarex replica watches are on next level.
Someone in the government should do something about it.
Cancel them.
ban them
I hate mega-clone replica sellers.
little criminals
throw that in garbagge and take the real clone from primerolexio
they have best clones
i just buy from
they have best clones
Nice bots
Hahahaha never seen such obvious bots. Hahahaha
I only believe to trustyreps
Ok, I'm convinced. Where can I get one of those replicas?
Wow I want! Lol
Bury New road, Cheetam Hill Manchester UK
A fool and his money? Look at the state of those works on the fake. Really crude and rusty looking.
Ummm. That was the opposite of the point. A homage I can respect. A fake means you're also a fake.
There are way better fakes out there, do your research. Don't let these snobs tell you you're devaluing their watches by proving you can get the same exact thing for 1/10th the price
I didn't expect the replica movement to look so close to the original. Interesting. Thanks for posting this.
Highlights how much certain Swiss watches rip off the consumer with ridiculous prices
@@matthewdale956 The Swiss are ripping off the consumer because the Chinese are ripping off the Swiss. 🤔
I was actually thinking the opposite. I seen pictures of replica movement before and I thought they looked a lot closer to the original, but this video give me a much better idea of how far apart the fit and finishing is.
There's certainly a very obvious lack of fine machining work on the fake. It's very very obvious and it look bad even compared to something like a 2824-2. The missing blued hairspring is a dead giveaway too. I think this video actually shows the quality of the rolex very well. Not saying a rolex is worth the crazy money it's costing now. But it's definitely a well made object
I thought the same thing Richard.
i believe just to trustyreps
The level of detail on the fake Rolex close to the original one is impressive. 😮
Image… if they can do that counterfeiting money must be easy
would prefer to buy the fake one
Losers lol
Thats because there is a limit of movement inside the watch
Quartz , Automatic, Machanical
the whole world uses a varience of these 3 movements
Rolex doesnt make any movement that isnt available outside ; they just charge a lot for the same movement plus they have kinda expensive labor
Its crazy good
Scary how close they are getting. I still remember when removing the caseback and seeing the fake movement was “game over”, but now, they are getting closer to the original movement....
You should see an ACTUAL superclone. No way this is a top tier replica. I dont endorse fakes, but Im well versed in the most recent superclones out of curiosity, and this one looks like shit in comparison.
@@Hve801 lol bud yeah sure

Oh my God, I am so happy to hear this here, I got introduced to Mr. Alberto some two weeks ago, it still feels like a dream, so far I have made over $7,000 trading with him, at this rate I am sure I am on my way to becoming a millionaire.

The gears aren't machined quite as smooth the jewels aren't as clean and clear but it will probably last as long or longer because it was machined much rougher ! The fake looks like a really good watch for the price !
Longer 🤡
Hello, this is a greeting from China, I have sent the issues you mentioned back to our reproduction department and we will improve them in the new version. Thank you!
🤣🤣🤣
😅😅😅
I'm raughing in chinese 😂
💀💀💀
The Chinese engineers designing these counterfeits do an outstanding job for the price point and know exactly where the discrepancies are. Factories like Noob, ARF, ZZ ect. correct these discrepancies one at a time and mark it updated examples as the next version to keep sales progressing as the latest version. Noob Submariner for instance is up to Ver 11 or 12 which is what the watch in this video looks like and typically can be found for $350. If the girl posting this video paid $600 for the watch she used for making this video I'd like to contact her and see if she'd be interested in buying the Golden Gate Bridge.
Where can I get the replica at its good enough
You’ll never feel good wearing it trust me
@@RedWolf5 I wear 4$ watch and never feel a thing , does the real rolex arouse you or sth?
@@VJETRA If you want a Rolex buy a real Rolex a fake one won’t satisfy you, you’ll feel awkward when you wear it as you often get the question.
@@RedWolf5 Id happily tell it's fake if i ever buy that and feel free to walk away from me i won't waste my money just to satisfy other materialist people. and my point was , why spend that much on a watch , 600 is still too much tho.
@@VJETRA I repeat if you want a Rolex buy a real Rolex. I’ve had many watches in my lifetime from $5 and up .. I love watches so when I buy a good watch it truly satisfy me.
Is interesting to me that you got so triggered by my comment, I truly hope one day you make so much money you can easily afford a Rolex and not even look at the price tag.
Good luck
Finally a good and short video: 3 minutes are enough to see most of the details. Good job!
Can't get enough of Swissarex watches! ❤️
How a lot of small tiny parts working in harmony still amazes me to this day. I adore automatic watch movements.
Your own body is made up of approximately 100 trillion cells. Each cell is a wonder of creation. The master creator is our God. Praise & glory to him. Psalm 139-14 "I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
In todays era of technology, miniaturization doesn’t impress me as much as it did even 20 years ago. I am more impressed with super quartz movement. It’s a blend of circuitry and gears for the dial.
Swazer swazers, you’re actually not wrong at all I hadn’t even thought of that as I was in awe at how these watches work. But now I realize we’re like a giant watch with same intricate and sensitive as details inside in a gushy way🥴😄

My dear servant, I created you, I am your God.
Yes it's superb to witness this Zimbabwean technology
if the cosmetics reach to a point where you would need tools to be certain which is the counterfeit and real, then the manufacturers are doing a very good job.
@PooPaNuuaKuua all luxury goods are over priced
@PooPaNuuaKuua Not really. Watch brands such as Rolex, AP, Patek, etc. are valued like stocks/gold/houses, and they never devalue. If you buy a Rolex now you can wear and enjoy it then turn around and sell it in 2 years and get an increased profit from what you paid. You can't do that with any normal or replica watch
@@mrjrob11 No you can't unless it's a classic older one. No one pays more for used than new unless it's a well respected antique that's no longer made. Get real.
@@alfredhermansen4787 Alf wth are you talking about? Its like buying gold or any stock, except with something like a Rolex if you know the right ones to get, you only profit. You buy the watch for 15k retail, in 2-5 years the same thing could be worth 20k retail, going for 18k used. But why would you wanna sell it so soon anyway? You could enjoy it for 10 years and it could be worth double the price retail at that time. A lot of luxury watches will increase in retail significantly each year, especially if its a color variant. The watch this video is about is a great example, lasted only 11 years on market, got discontinued last year and is now double in price, it was highly sought after and its price will most likely continue to go up
@PooPaNuuaKuua i love my casio watvhes and my porsche cars rolex mehhhh
Fun fact: If you're rich, you can wear a fake and everybody thinks, its an original. But if you're broke, even if you got an original one, everyone thinks it's fake :D
Regarding craftsmanship, Rolex should cost 1,5k tops! After seeing that movement I'm disappointed, but it became clear to me, why they don't have crystal back! :)
@Nigel Molesworth You're right, they won't. Rolex is a master marketing company. That being said, it means that the quality and complexity of their products don't reflect in the price tag. Sure, they could double the price again as they did in the last ten years, and I think they will, as long as there will be suckers willing to pay the price! Hell, that kind of bubble is known for centuries. Google "tulip mania" and you'll see what I'm talking about. ;)
*Blushes in Horology House*
In love with my Swissarex timepiece. 😍
Top-tier craftsmanship!
That is most intuitive to follow: love the side-by-side. Well done!
This comparison is a testament to how people are basically just paying for a name. To me, the negligible difference doesn't justify a 15,000 dollar price difference.
What about the r&d they do. Chinese just copy the whole thing and sell cheap
@@dailyboomer3740 also swiss workers vs chinese. The salaries are quite not the same and people tend to forget that..
@@Jim-hw4bx Not only that. Watches like the Rolex are luxury items because of the name and the history they and the watchmakers working for them hold. A Picasso painting isn't any better than what a professional modern artist would be able to paint either.
in many ways its true... but in all those products..
Wear the watch daily for 10 years and then try to sell it. Rolex doubled the value, the copy is worth zero!
Clones have advanced considerably since the two years this comparison was posted. The differences between modern super clones and authentic are staggeringly minute.
Facts there movement has got a lot better!
The Chinese factories purchased the same machine tools as the Swiss factories and now the differences in finishing are only visible under a microscope. In many ways there is no difference at all, and the parts are interchangable.
Personally, I love the design on many of these luxury watches. They sure are amazing looking and come with the highest quality. However, I cannot justify paying the price for them.
I'm also not a big fan of fake watches and respectfully I do not buy them.
What I do is find other reputable brands that make watches that look similar, or their line of homage watches. This way I feel great wearing the beautiful watch and save a ton of money. Lastly, no one cares what I wear as long as I like what I wear. And the same goes for you buddy.
I'm truly amazed more and more...to see the level that the counterfeiters have managed to reach!
Doesn’t matter which one you wear: people will ask you if it is a real one..
no one's ever asked me if mine are fake. but lets face it, if you are 20 years old slinging burgers while going to college you aren't going to be sporting a Rolex most likely. If you are in your 40's, have done well for yourself, the people around you know that and so do complete strangers just from how your carry yourself and behave. Anyways, if anyone asked me if I was wearing a fake, I'd just say yep and move along. I wear a rolex as a prize to myself for my own achievements in life. I don't wear them for anyone else.
@@Turk10mm no one will know if a famous billionaire wear a fake.
Fake one will look more real on adult rich, wealthy person then real one on young person
If you're rocking a replica than power to you for having the ability to admit it. They're nice watches, desirable beyond doubt and champions of the timepiece community. On the other hand if you're wearing a real one and tell people it's fake to boost your ego -- kick rocks!
They don’t
The date on the fake changed RIGHT AT MIDNIGHT, like the real deal. I haven’t seen that. Impressive.
Because it’s a clone rep of the 3135 etc movement. It’s the ones that use a eta Chinese replica. That change clumsy
Crazy how good the original looks inside
Timeless elegance at its best.
This just tells me how amazing Chinese craftsmanship is. If they can do this on a $600 USD budget, imagine what they can do with 9k.
Problem is corruption but i can say the $468 dollar models released this year look way better on the inside.
This $600 fake is actually worth maybe $268 and appears to be an old model from 2 years ago. The new shit looks much better. And preforms better.
-No research needed
-No warranty
-No "Craftsman ship" just machines ripping off a brand
-Not fucking legal
Don't buy fake watches.
@@wheepylive9040 i rather buy a legit $600 watch than a clone.
@@gustavofuentes4318 exactly
:D
doesnt work like that bud... no creativy the chinese can only copy (albeit well)
So a bit of cleaning and polishing is all that there is left?
They don't quite have the balance wheel and regulation copied... yet. That's an immediate give-away of the fake. But... it is very common for good replicas to have genuine parts mixed in (dial, hands, crystal, etc.). They can swap in a real Rolex bridge and balance and make it look gen. They'd have to have a donor movement though, so not cheap. Ever wonder why Rolex restricts the supply of their parts so much???
Basically yes!
It’s not guaranteed the material quality of the parts are equal. (It’s one of the main reasons the GMT Master II movement has been attempted at cloning, but the jump hour feature is still considered a “time bomb” because the spring in that mechanism is very prone to breaking). Copying geometry is now straightforward; copying the entire process of making custom alloys is still difficult and expensive.
@@johnxy888 I know, I'm just kidding.
@@johnxy888 does that mean something like a Skydweller is less likely to be faked? Although I'm sure there are convincing fakes out there.
Perfection in every watch.
Perfect blend of form and function.
I'm blown away at the quality of the 600 dollar Rolex... Outstanding job. I have a Rolex explorer that I bought 2nd hand. I had it sent to the Rolex certified repair/seller and had it serviced. I also wanted to make sure it was authentic because I have heard that the knockoffs are very good nowadays....and this video proves that.
Quality, sure--if it really is well-built and doesn't merely look that way. It's not true that steel is steel is steel. To be a great watch every part must be made of a great alloy, the right one for the job the part does, and damn the expense. Other questions include: How will the crystal wear? Will it be noisy and annoy you in quiet rooms? What will happen when it inevitably falls on the floor as you're putting it on or taking it off? When it needs a repair, how is the part to be sourced? (Strong chance, I'm guessing, that a genuine part won't fit.) How well does it keep moisture out? How is the paint on the bezel going to hold out? There must be many more.
Great at keeping time doesn't equate to Great Watch, or Casio would be the last word (although I'm not saying you said any different; just wanted to say it).
I lean towards a guess, however, that it's very ok for $600. (Except I don't like the Rolex look too much anyway.)
@@dixonpinfold2582 I wouldn't worry about parts: the whole fake costs less than a service for an original!
@@andreyche193 Right, obviously. But then a disposable $600 isn't what a lot of people are after. Whatevs . _De gustibus_ etc.
I got my Breitling secondhand and immediately sent it to Breitling to be serviced the same day I received it. They take 16 - 20 weeks to do them but much to my relief it came back with a genuine service certificate.
Chances always were it was genuine because I've never ever seen or heard of a knockoff Breitling Hercules.
Right....how many people actually take off the back of their Rolex anyway? Let alone those who would know what they were looking at.
Once they perfect the free spring balance. It’s gonna be insane.
The big problem for them will be to do a Breguet Spring.
@@AnimeVideoEditor why?
Why? The gen parts are interchangeable even on the movement. If you were that way inclined you could swap in a gen bridge and spring.
No chance...seiko remains the grand master at that, Rolex movements don't even come close
Brother you are humorous , and you tell what my thought in mind
I adore appearance and feel of the timepieces from swissarex
Bot!
Pretty cool, thanks for the comparison without any fluff.
@@ajacks8007 what are you talking about?
Thank you for the video. I would have loved to see the difference in the balance wheels when they are hacked, where you would see the blue hairspring and small regulating crews/bolts on the periphery of the wheel on the Rolex.
Absolutely top-notch!
Quality that speaks for itself.
No Rolex in store?? Waiting List?? Just buy a Rep *true story 😆
Fake scarce to pump up price and desire.
@@welchianachi7707 Friend went into a store and they had a waiting list and blah blah on submariners. Other models were there. Personally , be a skeptical person, it turns me off and makes me think its fake demand or other dealers buying them up.

Many choices to choose from, I think
Dr David Schultz would agree with me.
The irony of finishing this video thinking, hey, that fake is damn good value for money. 😂 (Lecture not required, thanks). 👍
I agree. For about 1/15 the price (compared to retail and we all know most can't get it at retail), it's not that bad.
@pc and you can get them in about a week, no AD waiting lists.......
Better than the Rolex is worth anyway.
I don't know if I agree on the "value" part. The fake is cheaper and more attainable, hence why they are so popular. The Rolex is tons more accurate, truly waterproof, and more robust. At the end of the day, if you have the disposable income, then the Rolex IMHO is actually the better value. You get more, a lot more, and when you go to sell you can get all of your money back, maybe even make some money. Sell a rep and see what you get. Even the rep boards demand an accounting for your price, they won't let you make a dime of profit off of selling a rep. That does not represent good value to me.
Agreed
Almost no differences in quality , that’s amazing

Please consider doing a series like this. These comparisons not only train us to spot fakes but to appreciate the genuine articles. The major watch brands would be wise to sponsor you. ;-)
It would also be helpful to get tips on how we can either be certain we are getting the real deal or on ways to get watches authenticated.
Thanks.
This Rolex has a very nice model, I actually bought it for 900$. If you want, I can sell it to you from abroad.
The major brands would be more likely to pay her to STOP making such videos. How could they continue to justify charging $11,000 for an item which can be successfully made for a fraction of that price? OK so the quality is different but why such a huge price difference?
@@lefuedebout You pay for the brand
Awesome thanks for supporting 😊
Thank you for the video.
There are so many genuine great watches you can buy for $600
And all of them is made of crap in comparison to thes replica.
Thank you
No no its fake people buy original watches. Obviously almost all luxurious things made for fake people. Fake people who wants to feel themselves a little more important ang meaningful.
@@user-cu7ig6bf1x if it’s to feel important, then why do you want a watch that says Rolex on it. The bottom line is people buy fakes because they can’t afford the real ones and they still want to pose.
Oh no, it doesn't matter to me what logo printed on the dial. It would be even better without logo at all.
The point is rolex replica's has very very close level of quality as original watch so you can buy great watch for vey low price
I'd love to see more videos like this one on the channel.
These watches are pure class.
Awesome video. Thanks Jenni.
100 years from now when people are trying to buy these as vintage watches... GOOD LUCK
Plz put some faith in humanity, I don't think our world can hold on another 100 years
It going to take just one decade. Omg!
20 years from now, mechanical watches will be a thing of past.
@@watchgeek3977 I suspect WG what will happen is it'll go back to pre insanity levels. Steady enough sales, prices lowered and a smaller community of actual collectors. All it will take is a big enough meme to spread among the general public that the "values" of luxury watches - which were once solidly mid tier brands and cost not much more and often less than an average months wages - are overcooked and far more about marketing than reality. I further suspect fakes getting closer and closer will plug into this. An 500 quid clone is say 80% there, is it worth 8 and a half grand to make up the 20%? kinda thing.
Note also how in the video they wind, set the time/date, turn the bezel, much more quickly to exaggerate the fakeness of the fake. And fakes are inferior in this respect, but consider the price difference... Caveat I NOT condone fakes. I wouldn't wear one if you paid me(plus I'm not much of a rolex fan anyway).
Its crazy how far fakes have gone. There is even the newer fakes with the 3235 movements with 70 hour power reserve. From what i read online the company called VSF that makes it actually did a good job on it this time. Would like to see a comparison of that in the future!
VSF does the best submariners, Clean/BTF for the daytona. Unfortunately seeing how China can mass produce these faster than rolex and work just as deadly accurate should go to show everybody the real worth of a rolex. The only thing that'll set them apart is their solid precious metal pieces. There are not solid gold/platinum reps out there, only plated ones. But this is a wake up call to every watch lover discussing the objective value, rolex is not worth the hype.
I have a VSF 126613ln. Love it. Solid; runs great. Very fucking close to gen. Didn't cost me $15k. If it gets stolen or somehow gets destroyed I'll just buy a new one and not sweat it.
All very well showing the inside, but a watch measures time. What is the difference in accuracy of the two watches?
I don't see an $11,000 difference here
Best video on comparing a fake to real that I've seen. Pictures say a 1,000 words. Nicely done!
I loved that you didn’t seem to care to move the hands to the lower half of the dial on the fake when you were changing the date!🤟🏻😆
Quality that speaks volumes.
Their watches are a true work of art.
It's nice to find even tiny defects on the original one. 2:38 a processing defect on the left of the jewel case
One reason Rolex hide their movement.👎👎
You won't find that in an AP or patek
Considering that luxury watch movements are ancient technology, it’s no surprise that people can reverse engineer that technology.
Precision at its finest.
Thanks for posting this. The dial and outside are frankly almost indistinguishable from the original. Sure macro shots of the movement tell the difference.
The crudely reeded crown was a dead giveaway.
This Rolex has a very nice model, I actually bought it for 900$. If you want, I can sell it to you from abroad.
I like how they go so slowly when doing anything with the genuine and then fast forward through everything with the fake. On the replica they went through all 30 dates in like 3 seconds.
That wasn't fast forward dude... That's how it moves
Very clean work and very nicely done, the original stays original but it's hard to find out when you dont have both to compare
My brother in the UK is a floor and wall tiler and he did three bathrooms and a kitchen for this guy who offered him a rolex in part payment at the end of the job. My brother had always wanted one so he took it. Three years later he takes it into a Rolex shop for a small repair and receives a call from them to pick the watch up. When he went back to the shop he is told that they wont touch it as it is a fake. I still take the piss out of him over it but will concede that without taking the back off, and then knowing what you were looking at, it was virtually impossible to pick as a fake. Oh, and the guy he did the work for had sold up and moved away so he couldn't get any sort of reimbursement.
I personally don't own any replicas but I do have homage watches and one of my favorite homage is the steinhart 42mm.I love the design and look of many luxury watches but wouldn't mind a homage version with seiko or miyota or a cheap Swiss movement, as long I was getting the look (never been into the movements) I'm a car guy too , now that is something I want to the inside (engine performance) to be top notch and would pay accordingly.
I'm glad you did a side by side comparison of the movements. It really shows the difference in quality.
i. e. Not much
The 9500$ difference?
@@Vistaprint-zy2ly one runs at +/-2 secs, the other at - 4+6 secs. Pretty much the same for all intents and purposes.
Co worker got one of these super clones. It ran nicely for a month, then it went to shit. He got pissed when most places refused to service it.
Brian Hsin ….this is an odd experience and most people do very well with the clone. By the way, the VR3135 clone movement sells here on eBay for about $185.00 so the worst that happens is you replace it for the price of a dinner for two. If it was an old Rolex it would be like getting transmission overhauled on your BMW SUV…
Wow amazing video and comparison Jenni.
WOW - alot of effort went in to that - especially the movement
How long is it going to be before you can't tell the difference.
I think finishing the movement to such a high standard is cost prohibitive for the manufacturers of these fake watches.
@@theprince08853 Absolutely right now but as that technology gets cheaper and these fakers get more technically sound they are bound to catch up eventually. It will be up to Rolex to make it harder to fake their watches.
@@OsireionAbydos For the finishing to be done it depends on highly skilled manual labour. I have no doubt that technology in general will advance to the point where hand finishing is not needed. Have you seen any Nomos movements? It's a mixture of hand and machine finished but looks pretty damn flawless.
Pretty sure you'll find zero precious metals in fake, unlike almost every original Rolex (platinum logo, gold screws, platinum numbers painted on a GMT Master bezel etc) or any other special materials like rotor coated in Teflon. Also Rolex has some secrets up their sleeve that are impossible to replicate for cheap like laser etched crown logo inside the sapphire crystal. And seems like Rolex is switching to relatively new 72h movement. And so far I've seen only one Chinese movement higher than 42h. And China still struggles to release at least a single watch with decent finishing on the movement.
@@smashexentertainment676 The laser etched crown logo was replicated years ago. Also these fake manufacturers use ETA/Selita movements. If there's a movement out there with a 28,800vph with a 72 hour power reserve then they'll just slot that into the fakes.
Scary how accurate they are making them appear!
You'll find replicas that are even more accurate. Watches that even rookie watchmakers can't distinguish. They may just have a screw or gear very slightly different - rest all exactly same. The problem is that even those genuine watches don't cost $10k. So if the current/ex-endors sit down and form a cartel - they can easily copy many of the models for a fraction of the cost. Because they are not incurring any R&D expenses on design or patents. Just like the original Swiss or American NCE (drug/medicine) that costs $100 is made by a 3rd party in Africa for $2 with the same formula and materials for a diff. brand. And it costs them barely $1.5 per capsule.
They've now come up with the blue spring and the red wheels are actually the same red color.
Crazy!!!
I have a friend that bought a high end replica of a Daytona and the diff is negligible. He says only a dealer would be able to spot the difference he bought his Daytona for around 600 as well
The best Daytona clone is from Noob factory with all clone functions. In particular the reference 116519 with oysterflex bracelet is the best one
Amazing , brilliant Zambian technology
Can't get enough of this.
The really impressive thing is how the replica manages to get so banged up on the inside... like it's really hard to damage components and finishes that much. They must engine turn the bridges and then the next guy on the assembly line throws them against a brick wall...
It's probably to do with the pot metal they use or the chickens running around on the workshop floor.
Not a grade "A" rep.
NOOB or VSF look real close to genuine.
Probably because they stole the components from old used Rolexes.
The materials they are made from are from old recasted Rolex Clones. LMAO
I honestly couldn’t tell the difference between the two had they not been side by side. Now they were, the dirt and grime inside the fake one was overwhelming. It seems like addressing this obvious issue would take very little effort.
I wish he had one of those machines that calculate how many seconds late the clock will be after a day and compared these two clocks. That would be way more interesting than small visual differences.
A 15€ "beach Rolex" with a Quartz movement is more accurate than any 25,000€ mechanical Rolex.
Accuracy is one of the least significant signs of a watch being genuine or a fake. I have here a 45€ Sub "Tribute" watch with a Chinese mechanical automatic movement (not a Rolex copy) and it's remarkably accurate, ±1 sec/day. I doubt it would be as accurate as a Rolex after ten years of heavy use in hostile environments, used as a tool, not a show case. In fact I'd predict the Chinese movement to broke down before gaining ten years of use.
I use an app on my android phone
Mines -6 sec a day which is quite good
You can regulate a replica to within 2-3 seconds a day. Just takes some patience and a good timegrapher.
@@mickborrett7749 which app?
Difference in precision is evident in the tolerance of the axes in the side-by-side close-up view of the jewels at 2:35
Flawless in every way.
I’ve both.
At first glance, hard to tell.
But over time, it becomes apparent.
I actually prefer the fake.
It’s lasted almost 10 years and I’m not as worried about it.
Can I ask from where you bought it (fake one)
Wow! Side by side you can tell but this would definitely fool me as it’s not likely that I’d have another Hulk in my possession to compare! The fact that they have attempted to copy the movement is quite scary.
It's only scary to people who own a real Rolex. The reason they're scared is because it exposes how much it really costs to produce a Rolex and it exposes the real value of those watches. They're not worth anywhere near $10,000. A real Rolex probably only cost about $800 to make but they sell it for well over $15,000.
This Rolex has a very nice model, I actually bought it for 900$. If you want, I can sell it to you from abroad.
@@SAYGI_ $900 is too expensive. For that price I would expect it to be a perfect copy.
Yeah imagine buying online. Nooooooo
@@Marsalien100 700$ I can sell you my newly bought rolex oyster perpetual Datejust eta watch, if you want, write me your instagram account and I'll send you a photo of the watch, it's really a great rolex
Thanks for this
Looks way better than I thought it would. It is amazing, actually, how well they copied it for the price.
That’s because the costs for manufacturing are about the same by this point...

And you should see them now and how much more accurate they are, it actually makes this replica watch look like a toy
r/reptime
@@GingyNinjyyso it is very accurate. The “real” one also looks like a toy.😂
Thanks for the side by side comparison of these real vs super clone. It's very close to the real movement but true to its cloned roots, the replica is super dirty inside. But to an untrained eye, they may not even know the difference from dirty or clean...
Replica is good for use in some situations and also have the original in a safe zone
thanks for sharing, interesting
OMG. Soon the Chinese will make a better Rolex Watch than Rolex. GREAT VIDEO.
the date change was one of the worst sounds I've ever heard
Yeah, looked loose, sounded scratchy. Otherwise, seemed pretty nice on the outside.
Then you haven’t run over a cat
The font used for the date and the way the date wheel moves tends to give the game away on fake rolexes.
I am scared of how authentic the fake one looks like. Even from inside :O
Exquisite in every sense.
