A lot of people – even seasoned collectors – can find themselves confused when trying to distinguish between original and authentic watches. The trick? Stop thinking of the words as synonymous. In this guide, you’ll learn about the big differences between these two categories of luxury watches and how it can help you be a more educated shopper and collector.An authentic watch is undisputed in origin, and not a replica or copy. This means that in order for something to be authentic, it has to be 100% real. Authentic watches are genuine pieces from brands – think of the big players like Rolex, Tudor, Omega, Patek Philippe and more.We use the word authentic in the industry to distinguish between genuine timepieces and fakes that are widely copied and sold. When a dealer gets their hands on a watch, the first thing they are going to do is check the authenticity of the watch; and as a buyer, you should be doing the same. As a buyer, the first step in guaranteeing you get an authentic watch is by always buying directly from the brand or a trusted and reputable dealer who can ensure that the watch is authentic.But how can you tell whether a watch is authentic? Well, we’ve created some great guides to help educate buyers and collectors – both on what’s real, and how to spot inauthentic details. Head over here to check out our official guide on the Top Ways To Spot A Fake Rolex.To be an original watch, the timepiece has to be an authentic watch. Because when you see a watch listed as original, it means that it is both a genuine timepiece from that brand, and one that has not had any later-era updates or alterations since it was manufactured and originally sold.Original watches are:Authentic Have not had parts replaced with later-era equivalents or been modified/altered in any way Sometimes in the industry, we also refer to original watches as ‘honest’ watches. And when we look at pre-owned timepieces – especially vintage watches, we often look for originality. This means we look for things like correct factory-installed parts, whether they’re scratched, chipped or faded.We also look for things like custom details that were added after purchasing, like diamonds or enhanced bezels which were later-era additions and unoriginal to the piece. There are even many buyers and collectors who will favor watches that have never had a polishing or servicing that could have hindered the natural aging process of the timepiece.
Are they likely to issue a Coke at some point in the future? It is impossible to tell, to be honest. There is already a decent amount of color in the range, with the blue and black ‘Batman’ pieces and the pair of ‘Root Beer’ examples. And with there actually being a total of three Pepsi’s – one in steel and two in white gold – maybe Rolex has decided that’s enough.That being said, the Fat Lady (that ref. 16760 original) turns 40 in 2023, and as already discussed, the brand loves a birthday. So, just maybe…Until then, we will have to content ourselves with the references available on the pre-owned market.Just about the rarest thing in the world (the world of horology at any rate) is for Rolex to succumb to audience pressure. Yet, in 2009, that’s exactly what happened when that venerable old warhorse, the Datejust, was issued in a new 41mm size. The largest Datejust option had been 36mm model since before the Earth cooled, but the trend for ever-increasing watch sizes was one the brand could only ignore for so long.However, the so-called Datejust II not only added a significant 5mm but also changed the proportions of the watch’s individual elements. The bezel grew broader, and while the case got wider, the bracelet didn’t, leading to thicker lugs. Overall, it traded the former model’s graceful, sweeping lines for a more muscular sporty profile, adding bigger hour markers on the dial to fill up the extra room.
This two tone yellow gold Jubilee bracelet from AR factory is much more expensive.

I am Susan, thank you for reading my reviews. Water Resistant: 50m Changrong Factory Replica Rolex Datejust 41mm 18K Real Gold with Swiss ETA 2836-2 Movement Replica Rolex Datejust 41mm Two Tone WatchRolex is a top luxury watch brand and it is a dream of every man to own a Rolex watch, especially a golden Rolex. Because a golden Rolex is a symbol of noble status. However, not every one can afford a genuine Rolex watch, let alone a golden one, some people turn to buy second-hand, but most of them are not in good condition, and their gold layering has faded off. So, what is the solution for this case? The best advice I can give you is to buy a good replica. Maybe some people think that replica watches are greatly different from genuines, but nowadays they could be made 100% the same as real watch, you do not need to worry about the quality, a lot of factories have improved their watch-making technology to manufacture 1:1 Swiss replic Rolex. For example, this golden Rolex Datejust watch made by Changrong factory is a perfectly replica golden, with a genuine Swiss ETA 2836 movement, the watch is much superior than any other replica Rolex sold online.Replica Rolex Datejust Yellow Gold 18K The replica Rolex has two big advantages, 18K gold case and genuine Swiss ETA movement. First, the case is made of 316L stainless steel but has thick 18K yellow gold layering, which is almost 5 mils, it is wrapped gold layering, the factory claims that the gold will not fade even after one year of wearing. Second, the movement is a big surprise because few replicas use genuine ETA. The movement is a great match for the replica and makes the watch 100% perfect, you know, the replica will not be perfect if it only has a 18K gold case. With a Swiss ETA 2836 movement, the replica watch can work more accurate and stable.Replica Rolex 41mm Datejust Rolex Pattern Dial Having talked about the biggest features of the replica, let me show its other specification. It is the dial that firstly catches my attention, it is in silver tone and has unique “ROLEX” patterns, I do not know how you guys call these patterns, but they indeed look very special. Hour markers are raised from the dial, they have golden edge and there is one brilliant diamond set in the center of each hour marker. I do not like diamonds decoration on this mens watch, after all it is not a lady watch, it is used by men, why Rolex did not use common hour markers without diamond. Replica Rolex 41mm Datejust Fluted Bezel Fortunately the replica Rolex is equipped with a golden two tone bracelet, not a leather band.
While their sister-company, Tudor has garnered a strong following with their vintage-inspired heritage watches, Rolex is notorious for only moving forward with their designs, and never re-creating (or re-releasing) vintage Rolex inspired watches from the past. However, despite not manufacturing any outright heritage watches, Rolex does implement a few subtle, vintage-inspired design traits into the otherwise very modern watches that they manufacture today.Most obvious among the various vintage design elements is the red line of text on the dial of the new Rolex Sea-Dweller reference 126600. An obvious throwback to Rolex’s early Submariner and Sea-Dweller watches which had their respective names printed in red letters on the surfaces of their matte black dials, the red line of text on the dial of the new Sea-Dweller 126600 is an unmistakably vintage-inspired design element, which Rolex has recycled and reintroduced on an otherwise very modern and technologically-advanced, luxury dive watch.
The helium valve button on both factories do not work. While I think AR makes the helium valve button correct because they do a better finish on the button.Both AR and Noob use 904L stainless steel to make the bracelet. While I think that the 904L stainless steel used by AR is the best in entire watch market. The first touch feeling which AR Rolex gives you is excellent, whether on the case or bracelet, the finish on AR 126600 is superior. On AR 126600, if you check the first link of the bracelet that connects the case, its compactness with the links on both sides is made better, Noob’s has a small gap. The crown logo on the buckle looks more three-dimensional on AR 126600. So, about This is the only advantage of Noob factory, because Noob offers a 3235 movement option for this Sea-Dweller 126600. I did not say the Asia 2824 on ARF is not good, it is also a very good movement, even more stable than the clone 3235 and Asia ETA 2836 used by Noob 126600.Whether in material or finish, ARF Sea-Dweller Single Red 126600 is the best. About the movement, I still vote for ARF, because the Asia 2824 movement is more stable. Now, AR factory almost has occupied the entire market of Sea-Dweller 126600, about the after-sale service, Noob’s repairing service is very slow, this is also a big reason why I do not recommend Noob here.Photos and video of Noob 126600 Now, Daytona is the proud of Noob factory, it has become the flagship model of Noob, which is more popular than their Submariner 116610LN and 116610LV. Since the usage of 904L stainless steel in replica watches industry, the emphasis which every factory puts on is the development of replica Rolex, especially the production of Daytona, which directly affect the competitive relationship between Noob and ARF.In my last post, I said Noob is ready to release two yellow gold Daytona watches, now both watches are available. Here I will give a short review one of them, it is the yellow gold one with green dial.The case of this yellow gold Daytona is 12.5mm, which almost has the same thickness as original. Thanks to Noob’s newly developed 4130 movement, so the thickness of the entire case has been reduced, at the same time, the movement can also achieve all functions of original. The inner case material is 904L stainless steel, while the outside yellow gold coating is up to 5 mils thick.Green dial is my favorite, it makes the Daytona suitable both for men and women. Every small dial works very well, each features a red circle inside. The small second hand is on the subdial at 6 o’clock, other two small dials are for minute and hour chronograph display. To reduce the probability of failure, we suggest you do not operate the chronograph buttons too often, this is true for Daytona from Noob and ARF.
In Noob 116610LV, the movement is an Asia ETA 2836 automatic, which is fully gold plated, while in ARF 116610LV, the movement is Asia ETA 2824-2 automatic, actually both movements are made in China, the stabality and accuracy are good, can not be compared. While Noob offers a super clone 3135 movement option for this watch, this movement makes the watch have the same time and date adjustment like genuine, I think this is the only advantage of Noob 116610LV, but I do not recommend my clients to buy Noob Submariner with Super Clone 3135 movement, because this movement has a high repair rate.Like genuine watch, AR factory will offer one plastic box for their Rolex including this Submariner 116610LV, while Noob does not have it.Absolutely AR factory does better in quality check. In watch quality check before out of factory, Noob is not that strict like before. Now, many customers in forums like repgeek and replica-watch complained that their Submariners have problems after receiving the package within one week, they complained that the bracelet broke from the point that connects the case, lume coating on bezel markers falls off, etc., these complaints are true, while in all my clients who have bought the Submariner 116610LV from AR factory, no complaint ultill now.I do not know how is the after-sale service of AR factory, but Noob’s is very bad.
With cheaper price owing such high quality replica, I think it is deserve to have one of them. It features the function of living water-proofness, almost can satisfy your daily activities which are concerned about water.

The reason that it is suitable for all occasions, no matter you are going to take a party with it or enjoy outdoor activity with your friends, it can be so nice. Yes, here I will advise a top quality replica IWC Portofino watch to you, I believe that it may be the one which you are looking for a long time. This replica is delicate but classic, with low-key style and fashionable appearance. There is one obvious characteristic for this replica is its elegant outlook. If you prefer one replica with thin case, I think you will be attracted by this replica after you know its delicacy. You may like it so much.
