C+ factory Rolex GMT meteor dial How is the Coke bezel craftsmanship?

The Rolex Wristwatch model is produced by the leading Super Clone manufacturer workshops with a solid 904L stainless steel case, 40 mm diameter and Shanghai 3285 GMT movement 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.

Newcomers may not know, but in mid-2023, the old C+ factory was closed; The C+ factory that is currently taking over the works is a new factory. Before its closure, it was dealing with popular models such as Coke bezel, Inter Milan bezel, Sprite bezel, Sarsaparilla bezel and dominated the GMT world with Clean. But the C+ factory was not so lucky; The reason for its closure must again be attributed to sensitive issues.

Case and Body Workmanship

Now let's see what material the original Meteor Coke bezel model is made of. The selling price of the original reaches hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, and it is currently slightly higher on the second-hand market. The main reason for this is that Rolexes with meteor dials are open to speculation; It is normal for the price to be high. In terms of material, unlike the ordinary m126710 Coke bezel model, 18K white gold is used in this one, while 904L stainless steel is used in the ordinary Coke bezel. The situation is the same with the replica version, but the selling price is only XXX. Despite this, the detail work is approximately 95 percent similar to the original; The remaining 5 percent consists of the weight difference between stainless steel and white gold. On the mechanism side, the difference when compared to the original Swiss movement is the long-standing weak point of all replica watches. Therefore, you can consider the existing 5 percent deficiency as normal; After all, the logic of "what you pay, you get" definitely applies.

Next up is the crafting of the C+ factory GMT Coke bezel. In addition to the 904L material, the corresponding color tone was obtained using the PVD white gold plating technique. In fact, the color value of white gold plated and real 18K gold is the same, there is not much difference between them; There is no need for gold plating afterwards. The mold matches the structure and dimensions of the original exactly; 40 mm diameter, made 100% faithful to the original. It is completed with a classic three-row bracelet and a bi-color ceramic bezel. The replica technique of the previous C+ factory was still preserved in the workmanship of the bezel; Produced by one-piece molding method, there is no white line between the two colors. Moreover, after color adjustment, the red-blue combination offers a balanced and distinguishable appearance. The transition angle between 6 and 18 o'clock is also perfect.

The serrated edges do not leave any defects such as stinging after processing and polishing. It can be rotated bidirectionally and is fully synchronized with the original; The sound is muffled, but the feel in the hand is noticeable.

Glass and Sapphire Crystal

High transmittance blue crystal glass is used as standard; The fact that the bezel part stands higher than the structure indicates a form that is true to the original.

Dial and Hand Details

A meteor surface stands out on the dial, giving an extremely messy, complex feel. Some watch lovers may question whether the C+ factory uses real meteor material. We can answer this question by saying that real meteor material was used, which is indeed identical to the original. This material is not very rare in high-quality replica Rolexes now; In fact, it is a material that you can buy if you have the money, and can usually be turned into a real meteor dial with upgrades and modifications. So you don't have to worry about whether the meteor is real or fake.

The scattered feeling displayed by the dial surface is unique. If every quadrant were identical, then on the contrary it would be an artificial fake meteor. The original's dial is like this; each one is different from each other.

Movement and Caliber Performance

As for the movement, Shanghai 3285 caliber is used. Since the Dandong 3285 movement is currently monopolized by Clean, using the Shanghai movement does not mean a completely poor quality movement; Today's Shanghai mechanism is much more stable than before and is still quite reliable. The GMT function is faithfully reflected in the original, the power reserve reaches approximately 45 hours.
