Is the ZF Factory Rolex Green/Black Water Phantom recommended?

The Rolex Submariner model is produced by ZF Factory with a solid 904L stainless steel case, standard case diameter and high-precision automatic Super Clone 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 this replica watch, let's first look at the general situation of the black water ghost of the ZF factory. A CERACHROM ceramic ring is used on the bezel; It is made of a special ceramic that is harder, corrosion and scratch resistant. The CHROMALIGHT lume indicator on the dial is also a new feature; It preserves the watch's overall lume performance for longer. The production tolerance of the inscriptions on the ceramic bezel is at the micron level. The entire bezel was produced with a single-piece molding technique; Chamfering and platinum filling were done, and attention was paid to the detail texture. This texture is much more difficult to achieve than on ordinary hardware, and the quality is controlled at the micron level: you can tell by the depth of the recess of the bezel and the granular feel of the platinum filling.

The steel bracelet of the ZF Factory black water ghost replica is produced by combining imported wheels and imported polish; Its color is whiter and its brightness is one step ahead of all versions currently sold on the market. You can compare this yourself. The overall superiority of the steel bracelet is at a level that can easily be called original Swiss production. The ZF factory guarantees that the lug screws on all steel collars do not have the problem of slipping and not retaining thread; Just like the original, when you first tighten the screw, it feels tight at first, then it moves smoothly as always. ZF guarantees the performance of the steel bracelet: the ear screws of the steel bracelet, the 904 buckle and the small parts of the buckle are fully compatible with the original.

This time, ZF Factory's launch of the Rolex black water ghost has further intensified the competition in the replica watch industry and raised the overall level; it came much closer to the technical level of the original than before. It competes fiercely with VS Factory black water ghost, AR Factory black water ghost, ZZ Factory black water ghost, V6 Factory black water ghost and N Factory black water ghost. I'm not saying it's better than other factories, but it's definitely worth a try.

Is the ZF Factory Rolex black water ghost worth buying?

ZF Factory, as one of the top-level large factories in the industry, all of its products are the best replicas, all super clones. So how is the craftsmanship of ZF Factory's newest Rolex black water ghost, is it worth buying? Concretely, this ZF Factory Rolex black water ghost maintains ZF Factory's high-end technical level in the replica watch industry as always; The workmanship is extremely detailed and the similarity rate is incredibly high. In the real-replica comparison, even when placed side by side with the original, it is not understandable at first glance; thus avoiding the embarrassment caused by many past versions.

There is a hidden crown anti-counterfeiting mark on the glass at 6 o'clock; This is now a detail that can be easily resolved in replica watches. ZF has done a good job with the inner ring engraving. The waterproof seal placed inside the screw-down crown meets the need for diving; There is a curved surface at the bottom of the crown. When tightened, the crown does not fully rest against the case, but this does not affect the water resistance. This time, although ZF Factory's 3135 movement is better than the Hangzhou 6300 movement used by N Factory, it is not as attractive as VS Factory's 3135 one-piece (integrated) movement; After all, VS Factory is quite successful in making mechanisms.

Original 904L steel is used throughout the case; The chromium, nickel and molybdenum it contains is 1.5 times that of 316L; It is resistant to corrosion, does not oxidize easily, is resistant to wear and has undergone high-intensity brushing in many parts. Since the case form comes from the original mould, the chamfers and curves are very close to the original; It fully returns the original hand feel and character, almost the same as the original in size and thickness. The engraving on the inside where the strap is attached to the case is not sloppy either. The hour markers on the black ceramic bezel are extremely flawless, their spacing is consistent with each other; The inverted triangle at 12 o'clock and the lume bead on the bezel are perfectly aligned. In many small factories, the 12 o'clock mark and the bezel lume bead are not aligned, which reveals meticulousness. The brushing of the case back is finely processed, the texture holes are regular and their depths are compatible with each other. The mechanism inside is 3135 automatic mechanical movement; In general, it is extremely close to the original, its functions are compatible with the original, and it works correctly and stably.

The bracelet and clasp of the ZF Factory Rolex black water ghost use pseudo-904 steel; The steel color is close to the original and the workmanship in the details is very good. Parts such as the buckle have been specially processed and do not cut the hand. The same polished buckle as the original is used; The crown relief on it looks nice, and the processing of the opening part is also good. On the inside of the bracelet, the same horizontal brushing technique was used, without sandblasting, in the same way as the original. Thanks to the black ceramic bearing, the sound is very clear when the buckle is closed, and the hand feeling is very good. The matte treatment on the inside of the fine adjustment knob is also the same as the original. The steel bracelet is where ZF Factory has paid attention and it's really not bad.

The case is processed with imported emery stone and polished with imported white polish; Its color is white, its gloss is beautiful and it offers the best texture feeling on the market. The case base, clamping ring and waterproof seal are interchangeable with the original with zero tolerance difference. The 3 steel balls and springs inside the case are also compatible with the original structure; Not only the structure but also the waterproof performance matches the original. As for the dial details of the ZF Factory black water ghost replica: there is no major upgrade on the hour markers, because they are almost at their peak now, there is nothing left to change. However, ZF Factory has done an extremely good job on the central axis of the hour and minute hands. When looking at the teeth of the bezel from the side, the upper edge is engraved in accordance with the original, and the side surface is engraved in detail; The crown and brushing details on the right side have reached the highest level, almost perfect.

In summary, let me quote ZF Factory's own introduction: Why is the ZF Factory black water ghost late? Because they wanted to present this steel bracelet in its most original form and push all of Rolex's parts to the limit. Currently, ZF water ghost has officially entered the market; By looking at the details above, you can distinguish the most powerful ZF version on the market. It is not a bad choice to buy for watch friends who like it. Of course, there are now many versions of the black water ghost; Which factory you choose is entirely up to your own taste.
