Is the AR Factory GMT replica watch noticeable at first glance?

GMT refers to the dual time zone function of the watch. There may be friends who are not very familiar with this function; In short: one shows the local time, the other shows the time of the second time zone. The GMT hand points to the time of the region you want to know. For example, you can read Istanbul time and Berlin time at the same time on this watch; There is nothing more practical than this for those who go abroad frequently. Now that we know about this special function of the watch, let's look at the quality of detail of this AR Factory Rolex GMT blue-black bezel model.

The diameter of the clock is 40 mm; The case material has been upgraded from 316L steel to 904L steel. AR Factory now uses 904L steel in all its versions and this has become a privilege for AR Factory. The bezel is a black-blue bezel produced by firing real ceramic material. Currently, many manufacturers in the replica market still use aluminum oxide bezels instead of real ceramics. The workmanship is not bad, but there is still a criticism to be made: this GMT with a black-blue bezel is different from the model with a red-blue bezel; The color difference in the red-blue bezel has been corrected, but there is still chromatic aberration in the black-blue bezel.

There are four hands; In other words, a GMT hand has been added to the ordinary three-hand structure. It is definitely necessary to talk about the order of the hands: AR Factory is arranged in the same way as the original, with the hour hand at the bottom, the GMT hand above it, followed by the minute and seconds hands. This hand alignment was possible because AR Factory made changes to the movement; Other factories cannot achieve this. Of course, it is almost impossible to notice this detail if it is not mentioned; Even though we mentioned it, it seems like a somewhat unnecessary detail.

There is nothing to say about the details of the black dial; This once again reveals the power of AR Factory craftsmanship. As a well-established factory, it is almost impossible to find fault, whether it is the engraving of the Rolex logo on the dial or the text printing. The filling of the Lume hour markers is extremely thin and homogeneous; no burrs or foreign matter! The cut of the date window is finely crafted. Sapphire glass has high hardness, wear and scratch resistant; The small laser-engraved Rolex crown at the six position is clearly visible.

The distinctive middle case is cast from a single piece of highly corrosion-resistant 904L stainless steel. The crown features the patented Triplock triple water resistance system, screws securely to the case and is protected by a crown guard integrated into the middle case.

In terms of materials, the AR Factory Rolex GMT-Master II uses the same 904 steel material and sapphire glass as the original; Thus, embarrassing situations that may arise from lack of materials are directly prevented. The ceramic bezel looks almost no different from the original in terms of shine.
The workmanship is also extremely fine; Because AR Factory always produces Rolex and has studied the details of this brand's watches in depth. The jet black dial is adorned with three-dimensional white geometric hour markers and reflects the classic black-white harmony at the highest level. The color of the green GMT hand is very appropriate. There is an instantaneous jumping date display with a cyclops lens at three positions, and the cyclops lens surface is covered with a blue coating. The lume effect appears in a slightly yellowish tone, the same as the original. The thickness of the watch is also maintained just like the original; It does not show any openings due to the thickness problem. Ear details are extremely meticulous; The way the strap is removed and shortened and the fine adjustment of the buckle are exactly in line with the original. In terms of appearance, the overall workmanship is in place.
Since it has a closed case back, there is usually no major problem as long as the quality of the movement is stable and durable; However, the replica 3186 movement released by AR Factory is also very interesting. If the 2824 caliber was installed directly, the direction of the time setting would be reversed, and careful watch enthusiasts would definitely see this as a flaw. However, in the AR Factory 3186 movement, the direction of the time setting has reached the same level as the original. Mechanism performance is relatively good; As a matter of fact, it has been two years since the similar 3135 movement was released.

Overall, the AR Factory Rolex GMT-Master II green hand model is a watch that deserves appreciation. Its design is extremely classic; The green GMT hand ensures that you stay strictly connected to Istanbul time, no matter which part of the world you travel to. The fine workmanship of the watch protects your pocket while leaving you with a feeling of satisfaction. Watch enthusiasts who like it, please do not hesitate.
