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.
Santos, the one above is equipped with a genuine ETA 2892 movement. However, I recommend the replica Santos with a Sea-gull 2892 movement, because it has a good case, dial, the movement is also quality, but the price is much cheaper.Portofino, this watch has the best version from MK factory. Perfect replica level, 2892 movement.The last one is a Jaeger-LeCoultre. It is the latest good replica in the market. The crystal has a green AR Coating, very unique. Movement uses Tianjin ST17 automatic.
IWC watch is one of my favorite brands, and Big Pilot is best of the best I think. A man who is wearing a IWC Big Pilot watch is very attractive to me. IWC Big Pilot watch is a great choice for normal business meetings, and also not bad for a date as well. Here comes a new factory released full ceramic replica IWC Big Pilot watch for you. Ceramic has become more and more popular material in the watch market nowadays, and many watch manufacturers release new ceramic designs. Because ceramic is not easy to be scratched and also looks very nice in designs.Have a look at the appearance of this replica IWC watch, the grey dial with white markers on it matching the ceramic case wonderfully. 48mm case with a 15.8mm thickness seems too big, but I think this is one of its specialty. Some of my customers would just love watches with big dial like this. The case is one piece mould and fine engineered balck ceramic brushed finish which is 1:1 compares to the original. The dial is covered by a sapphire crystal with Swiss standard double AR glass, this is really first class material for a replica watch. Move to the back, which is made of solid titanium as per original, with detailed top gun engraving on it. The only thing I don’t like this watch may be its bracelet, which is made of premium black nylon strap with insignia single fold over deployant clasp. The material makes it too casual, but this is just as the genuine way.
Second, the movement vibration frequency is 28800vph, what shocked us is its chronograph function. Using 7750-2 automatic movement, almost has the same capability as original. It has insurance to be accurate in travel time. So you don’t need to confuse about this problem. With thin and long hand, compared with its big dial, it is more generous in the whole style. Its chronograph counter subdial is located in the place of twelve o’clock, and small second hand stays in the place of six o’clock.Third, the replicas uses leather strap, giving us a good touch feeling with such material. And considering we may has different dressings with various styles, this replica can provide two kinds of straps so that you can change as your like. You can change as domestic alligator strap or America alligator strap. The black leather strap matching with the fold-over clasp, can satisfy your requirement about comfortable feeling and convenience. When we observe it carefully, we see a big IWC logo in clasp clearly. Most of all, the replica is so nice in appearance with any details, you may almost can not find out its difference with the original. And its powerful capability as well.
