Is the GF Factory Cartier Santos V2 WSSA0018 watch worth buying?

The Cartier Santos model is produced by the leading Super Clone manufacturer workshops with a solid stainless steel case, standard case diameter and Miyota 9015 high frequency 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.

First, let's take a look at the technical specifications of the Cartier Santos series WSSA0018 watch.

GF Factory V2 version appears as the new generation Cartier Santos series. The belt links have been renewed and made exactly interchangeable with the original; The workmanship of the leather strap and the color of the dial have also been improved. Dimensions are 47.5x39.8x9.08 mm, movement is Citizen 9015 automatic mechanical, case is 316 stainless steel, glass is sapphire. The watch comes with two different straps: a steel bracelet and a leather strap.

Strap, Buckle and Comfort

GF Factory master watchmakers made repeated corrections and adjustments based on the V1 version, eventually making the strap links exactly interchangeable with the original. The case combines the same brushed and polished craftsmanship as the original; It leaves a premium feeling on your wrist.

Dial and Hand Details

In the V2 version, the dial surface has also been renewed; the color is much closer to the original than the previous version. Imported paint coating was used on the hour markers, and the hour and minute hands were produced with blue annealed workmanship. Thanks to the sapphire glass, reading the watch is both clear and much more resistant to scratches.

The workmanship on the strap side also deserves praise. Two of Cartier's inventions, the "SmartLink" belt adjustment system and the "QuickSwitch" quick belt changing system, have been successfully copied. Thanks to these two systems, watch lovers can change and shorten the strap as they wish without the need for any tools; extremely practical and useful.

Movement and Caliber Performance

On the movement side, GF Factory uses the precise and stable Citizen 9015 movement. In addition, since the original has a closed case back design, the movement is not visible from the outside and this does not negatively affect the similarity in any way. The engraved and brushed workmanship on the case back is exactly copied; There is no need to worry in daily use.

General Evaluation and Conclusion

As a result, the new Cartier Santos has a much more modern design compared to previous models and is very successful in terms of aesthetics. GF Factory master watchmakers have produced this watch exactly with their superior workmanship and perfectly captured the details on the exterior. It's worth buying and checking out for watch lovers!
