APS Factory wins

Which Rolex replica watch is most similar to the original? This is a very easy question for many people. But when you ask which Richard Mille replica is the best, very few people know. After years of development, the quality of Richard Mille replicas has gradually improved; If you are thinking of buying one, I recommend you choose from these three models: RM35-01, RM35-02 and RM055. These three are also Richard Mille replicas, with which factories compete fiercely with each other. For example, in the beginning, about three or four years ago, no factory was making a good quality Richard Mille RM35-02 replica; Some mod workshops such as Sonic and USA were producing it secretly, later these watches were introduced in our market and more people got to know them. Even ZF's later RM35-02 used the US-developed case with a very beautiful and realistic forged carbon texture. The last factory to produce the RM35-02 was APS; Before that, we know they already produced the RM055. But which factory ultimately wins in this RM35-02 battle between Sonic, ZF and APS? I think it's definitely APS.

Movement and Caliber Performance

Just two or three weeks ago, APS released the RM35-02 replica with the newly developed movement by DD. However, that movement has a hairspring regulator, which is a very noticeable defect when you examine the movement from behind the sapphire glass case. You can look at the picture below. Almost all DD movements used in replica watches have this defect, but this does not mean that the movements are not good; On the contrary, they are more stable and sensitive than most other mechanisms in this sector. What surprised me is that in less than a month, APS Factory made an additional improvement on this RM35-02 movement and made a real free-sprung balance; Now a real super clone RMAL1 mechanism has appeared, only from APS. And the newest version of RM35-02 bearing this super clone RMAL1 is now called V2.

See the pictures below; The adjustment lever on the balance wheel was removed and weights were added to the balance wheel, thus creating true free-sprung balancing. But this is not the first free-sprung balanced mechanism to appear on our market; Some mod workshops offer free-sprung balance modification services for many watches such as Nautilus 5711, Aquanaut, Daytona. However, in the case of this super clone RMAL1, this is the first free-sprung balanced movement officially made by a famous watch manufacturer. What about his determination? You may be wondering; This still needs testing, after all, the mechanism has only just been released. If the modification is not done well, stability will be affected; I will continue to share developments regarding this mechanism with you in my future articles.
