JF Factory Audemars Piguet ap15400 V5 version Royal Oak vs OM Factory: which replica watch is better made?

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak model is produced by OM Factory 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.

In the images, OMF is on the left or top, and JF Factory is on the right or bottom. (Since JF's has been used, you will see signs of wear in the following images, so some details may not appear as bright as OM's.)

Case and Body Workmanship

Looking closely at the details: OM's case gaps are slightly larger than JF's, but OM Factory's screws are almost flush with the case; OM is still good at this.

Crown: JF does not look as bright as OMF as it has traces of use; but the engraved text on it is actually quite distinctive.

Strap, Buckle and Comfort

Strap comparison: The difference on the inside of the steel bracelet is quite noticeable. Compared to the JF, the OMF looks cleaner and the engraving on it is also a bit thicker. The depth of the carving is almost the same.

Dial and Hand Details

Dial: Blue, a color that is not easy to achieve; There is a color difference in both. OMF's color is too saturated; The color and radial pattern of JF are closer to the original.

Dial surface details: OMF's AP logo looks a little more three-dimensional. The hour markers and hour and minute hands of JF and OMF are almost the same; However, the JF looks nicer and closer to the original in terms of the square arrangement and texture details on the dial surface. The bezel also looks closer to the original than the OMF.

Movement and Caliber Performance

In the movement visible from the case back, both of them use the Citizen 9015 modified to 3120. The workmanship of the two bridges is almost the same; However, OM Factory's stones are purple and the color of the rotor is not correct. In comparison, the case back appearance is more consistent with the JF original.

JF is slightly ahead in every aspect such as case back engraving, bridges, engraved inscriptions, stone color and rotor color.

I've only photographed a few different dates here for comparison. In general, JF's font is fuller than OM's.

Comparison with a series of real shots under the sun; Which one did you like more?

The OM Factory ap15400 was probably later molded and produced based on the 2018/2019 J/K series; The JF factory previously opened molds based on the 2015-2017 H/I version. At this point, you can make a comparison using the original as a reference.

General Evaluation and Conclusion

Overall, JF Factory's Audemars Piguet ap15400 is slightly ahead. The blue of the JF is closer to the original, and the case back is processed almost perfectly. Although it is a little behind OM in terms of lume, it is still definitely recommended.
