Aps Factory Richard Mille Rm35 02 Red Devil V2 Version Without Leak Free Sprung Double Mainspring

Richard Mille Wristwatch RM35-02 model is produced by APS Factory with a 5th class titanium case, standard case diameter and high precision automatic Super Clone mechanism architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

However, there is one point you should pay attention to: APS has two versions of this; One is with regulator, the other is free-sprung. There is no difference in their front faces; When you look at them from the front they are exactly the same. The only difference is in the balance wheel at the back. Even though it is a small difference, there is a big difference in price, so be sure to distinguish between the two. Some friends who frequently deal with watches know the difference between those with and without loops. But some who are new to the business may not know exactly what the difference is between the two. Here, this detail you see on the balance wheel is more faithful to the original.

Case and Body Workmanship

Material: Used NTPT carbon fiber material in APS case; Extremely lightweight and impact resistant. The NTPT pattern is adjusted to the large pattern in the original and is larger and more flashy compared to the 055. Movement: APS uses the free-sprung automatic RMAL1 integrated mechanism developed specifically for Dandong. The development process took two years; All parts can be replaced exactly with the original mechanism and its stability is extremely high. Thus, the instability of various parts assembly mechanisms on the market is prevented. Rotor: APS developed the variable geometry rotor with the same design as the original (installation efficiency can be adjusted) at great expense. There are 18 tiny 0.3 mm screws in a tiny rotor, and they are all meticulously machined. The main platinum and bridges are made of fifth-grade titanium alloy; both lightness and durability together. Metal parts: All metal parts in APS's RM products are made of titanium; This ensures the same lightness as the original, making the watch as a whole one of the lightest watches on the market, which means comfort when worn. Strap: APS uses natural fluororubber material; One piece molded, no flaws. This makes it more comfortable, fits the wrist better, is soft to the touch but flexible. Buckle: APS's buckle is considered the best buckle on the market; It is made entirely of titanium and its design is the same as the original. The detachable buckle plate and the lever part in the middle are also made of titanium material; This ensures its flexibility (small workshops use sheet steel, it loosens after a few uses).

Movement and Caliber Performance

Because the original mechanisms are basically always this free-sprung type and have only a single rod. However, most of these toy clocks are crazy; It has two sticks, one for speed adjustment and one for balance adjustment. Until a few years ago, the majority of toy watches were of this wacky type.

In the last few years, many models have now become free-sprung. Like this 35-02, also some AP 26240's, all are being updated including the 1500. There are no more loopholes left in this latest foolproof mechanism. It doesn't matter in Rolex models with closed case backs, but in those with transparent case backs, many watch enthusiasts can tell them at first glance whether they have lugs or not. Now, this flawless structure is not much clearer in appearance, so its price is a little higher. The one with a loop is relatively more affordable and has better price-performance. There is no other difference between them other than this difference.

The structure and plate arrangement of the mechanism are exactly faithful to the original; a true RMAL1 integrated mechanism. The details processed are quite successful; There are no problems, including the workmanship of carbon fiber patterns and engravings. The entire skeleton of the mechanism, the plate arrangement and the gears inside are really functional, and there is a double mainspring box on top. During installation, these double mainspring boxes can work in harmony with each other; These gears can move completely when you pull the crown to set the time. The degree of compatibility of the mechanism with the original is also very high. Moreover, the stability of this mechanism is now much better; It is truly far superior to those modified mechanisms of a few years ago. Now there is almost no return to service.

Strap, Buckle and Comfort

The carbon fiber pattern is very beautiful, and the dimensions are completely consistent with the original; Everything is very well made, including the straps. The engraving details and softness of the fluororubber belt are seamless; The engraving of the buckle is also quite deep and the touch is extremely good. The comfort of this watch when worn on the wrist is also very successful; It fits the wrist perfectly, no problem whether your wrist is thin or thick, and it looks very stylish when you wear it. It's like an entrance ticket to the billionaires' club. This color combination is also very classic: red carbon fiber case, red strap; There are also several different color options.
