ZF Factory Audemars Piguet 15703 replica watch review: workmanship details and differences from the original

When we look at the whole, ZF Factory Audemars Piguet 15703 has a simple and durable appearance with its stainless steel case and octagonal bezel. The eight screws on the top of the case highlight a strong metal feel. The glass material is sapphire and has extremely high hardness. The black dial, which has an enlarged classic checkered pattern, is engraved with very large checkered decorations. This dial design absorbs light better and reduces reflection.

The hour and minute hands have a simple large three-hand design; This gives a clean and tidy impression.

The dial features silver dimensional hour markers and AP Royal Oak hour and minute hands; It also features a black rotating inner ring with prominent dive watch markings.

There is a date window at three o'clock; ZF Factory has made an improvement here by using the same classic date font as the original. The date window has a light blue coating; which makes it more obvious. Since the anti-reflective blue coating effect of the date is very strong, you can read the date clearly no matter what angle you look at it from.

Screw threaded crown; The date is set in the first level, and the time is set in the second level.

Brushing marks are clearly visible on the side surface of the case of the ZF Factory Audemars Piguet 15703 replica watch; extremely finely crafted. The curve of the ears is attached very accurately, all the corner parts are machined and do not sting the hand. The outer layer of the winding crown on both sides of the case is covered with black rubber; This not only provides a stylish and flashy decoration, but also makes it more comfortable when turning it by hand. The crown at ten o'clock is used to adjust the time of the outer ring of the dial while diving.

ZF Factory Audemars Piguet 15703 uses a closed (non-transparent) stainless steel case back; This part is brushed and sandblasted. The outer ring is brushed and polished and the watch code is printed on it. The sandblasted section on the inner ring of ZF Factory is more finely machined compared to JF; Since it is platinum-plated, it has a shiny and high-quality texture, and the embossed font on it gives a very strong sense of size. ZF Audemars Piguet 15703 uses the Seagull 2824 fully automatic mechanical movement, a simple and durable classic that is frequently used in the replica watch industry.

Rubber strap suitable for diving; The strap and the connecting parts on the case can move, which is one of the points where the ZF version is very careful. The advantage is that friends with thin wrists can make adjustments so that the strap fits the wrist better. This is a very important detail in the usage experience and increases the user's usage experience. There is AP inscription on the stainless steel polished buckle; It is very close to its original level in terms of size and durability. The strap buckle is almost interchangeable with the original.

Overall: This time ZF Factory has made a full-fledged take on Audemars Piguet. This becomes obvious when you look at the models it produces; all best-selling models: Audemars Piguet 15400, 14703, 15202, 15500 etc. In terms of workmanship, all of them have received the approval of watch enthusiasts and garnered positive comments. Of course, there is one aspect that this 15703 model is missing: the movement range of the connection parts on the belt part is not very wide and there is still a difference compared to the original. At this point, ZF Factory can improve by making the machining finer.
