Is the workmanship of the CF Factory Longines Spirit 40 mm series L3.810.4.73.6 good?

Is it worth buying the CF Longines Spirit 42 mm series L3.811.4.73.6?

The CF team produces in close collaboration with the contract manufacturer of the original product; With original disassembly and measurement work that is unique on the internet, all dimensions and parts are perfectly matched to the original and are interchangeable. Dimensions are 40 mm/42 mm, the same as the showcase dimensions; With the original Swiss ETA2892 base mechanism, which is exactly the same as the original, Seagull's TOP level 2892 movement is used together with three-stage processing, making it more stable and durable. Thus, a Longines Spirit series replica watch with original mold quality is created.

[View] A few original items were taken apart and measured; The same stepped case structure, the same CNC machining level, the same thickness and dimensions were achieved. Even though it has a closed case back, we have no hesitation in comparing it with the original, even if you open the case back. Not being afraid of being ripped off is the trick; The overall texture of the watch competes with the original. All parts of the watch, including the steel bracelet, spring pins and each screw, are perfectly interchangeable with the original.

[Dial] The white dial uses the same grained textured surface as the original, the blue dial uses the same sunburst patterned surface as the original, and the black dial uses the same matte and fine grained surface as the original. The overall density of the grains matches the original, and the same light reflection as the original can be seen from all angles. Each number stud, logo and five-pointed star is produced using individual molds with the workmanship and materials of the original; After several mold trials, the three-dimensional aesthetic was made identical to the original.

[Lume] For Lume, the same model as the original, using Swiss C3 super strong lume powder (more than 200 thousand per kg); Same as the original, it absorbs strong light for 15 minutes and gives 4-6 hours of lume effect. Lume masters with decades of experience fill it by hand and extremely slowly. Each hour marker and hour and minute hands are filled with original imported Swiss C3 super strong lume powder, without overflow and evenly. Both the workmanship, material and color of the hour markers, hour and minute hands, as well as the natural appearance and color of the lume, are completely comparable to the original.

[Glass] At the original level, curved sapphire glass with blue coating on both sides is used. Both sides are chamfered and the edges are processed smoothly; thickness and curvature meet the exacting 0.03 tolerance standard. Scratch and abrasion resistant, shiny and clear.

[Water resistance] The screw-down crown has been tested many times and provides 10 bar water resistance, the same as the original.

[Steel bracelet] Steel bracelet is produced in accordance with strict standards, starting from the raw material; Each pod is processed with CNC many times to bring it to top quality. Its brushed pattern is fine and regular; The brushing depth is also exactly the same as the original. Not only do we keep the intensity of brushing fine and consistent, we also keep the depth of brushing at the same level as the original. The depth of the buckle was imitated exactly; The problem of the buckle becoming loose and not holding tight after using it for a while has been solved, so the buckle fits perfectly even if it is used for a long time. Even the solid sound when closing the buckle was reproduced exactly.

[Strap] Uses the same French top layer calfskin as the original; It offers comfortable use by sitting on the wrist with its soft and thin texture. Every inch of stitching and every detail, including numbering, is identical to the original.

[Competing movement with the original] A second development was made based on Seagull's TOP level 2892 movement, with the same ETA2892 base movement as the original. The L888.4 movement is precisely machined with the three-stage machining method of the original; ETA stamp, Geneva stripes, pearl pattern, movement code, movement model and movement number are the same as the original. To achieve perfection, the CF team worked for a long time without sparing costs, making the bearing structure of the mechanism the same as the original; In this way, the obvious fake bearing plates seen at first glance, which are seen in ordinary watches on the market, were avoided. The wheel of history no longer has the problem of getting stuck; The date wheel assembly with the adhesive method, which is a little less costly, was abandoned and the same date wheel assembly as the original was preferred, so the date rotates fluently and clearly.

[Quality control] The CF team's almost brutally meticulous quality control inspects every movement from scratch. Each watch is tuned to its finest setting by the CF watchmaker before leaving the factory and comes with a movement test report. The watch comes with the same top layer calfskin case as the original and five codes in one. CF always maintains the enthusiasm of the first day and aims for perfection! It will continue to produce Longines replicas in original mold quality for all watch lovers. CF is an artisan factory that produces only Longines!
