What impression did the ZF Factory V3 version Richard Mille RM35-02 leave?

Richard Mille Wristwatch RM35-02 model is produced by ZF Factory with a 5th class titanium case, standard case diameter and high-precision automatic Super Clone mechanism 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.
Case and Body Workmanship
Let's start with the general appearance: the case, case back and crown are made entirely of carbon fiber and are extremely light. Moreover, the patterns are beautifully crafted and give a visual feeling close to the original. In other versions currently on the market, only the case or upper and lower panels are carbon fiber; No carbon fiber is used in the crown. In this model, a full carbon case is produced from RM's original NTPT carbon fiber. NTPT's cloud pattern and wavy appearance are handcrafted and retouched by US case masters; When worn on the wrist, its appearance is unrivaled. Its 44*50 mm size fits most wrists, the highest hardness sapphire glass is used and both sides are blue coated. The overall look leans towards a more sporty and sophisticated side.

Strap, Buckle and Comfort
Case thickness is thinner than other versions; In particular, the curve on the case surface is captured very accurately, and the transition between it and the strap is fluid. In these aspects, it is clearly superior to other versions.

Movement and Caliber Performance
Now let's look at the details: The workmanship of the gears and skeleton mechanism on the front is actually quite meticulous; It should have a slight advantage over the versions on the market.


Sleek barrel-type appearance, classic and stylish. The workmanship and gear structure of the dial surface are exactly the same as the original; The engravings of English letters also match the original exactly. The workmanship is quite nice. The workmanship, engraving and polishing of the hour and minute hands are exactly the same as the original.


As for the mechanism at the back, the workmanship of the rear automatic rotor is quite good; There are no obvious flaws in the screws on the transparent back cover. As the movement, a specially modified RM.RMUL3 caliber based on the Seiko NH05 is used. The hour and minute gears move together as the watch is adjusted, bringing its appearance closer to the original.

The strap is made of natural rubber; light and comfortable. The buckle is titanium. ZF Richard 035's glass, rubber ring on the crown, rubber strap and titanium buckle can be used in harmony with the original.

After explaining the pros, it's time for the cons. Due to technical constraints and cost, the arrow tourbillon does not rotate; However, this part needs to move while the original clock is running, but in this version of ZF, this part does not rotate. But let's also say this: nine out of ten of those who wear this brand, especially in nightlife, wear fake ones. Therefore, it is not very important whether he returns or not; After all, this watch is more than enough to impress some naive people or some ladies. However, in this mechanism, the minute and hour gears were able to rotate, which is an improvement!
Dial and Hand Details
Summary: The 3 gears on the skeleton of the ZF Richard Mille RM35-02 can move and rotate together with the hour hand; Currently only ZF can do this and it's really cool. ZF Factory Richard Mille RM35-02 is a Richard really worth buying, except for that little flaw. Because Richard Mille does business for the rich; That's why he doesn't do what's not difficult in his designs, and doesn't like what's simple. When you wear this watch and go to a nightclub, you will become a true "Mr. Zhao". We can say that the version released by ZF Factory this time completely surpasses all previous versions in terms of both appearance and details. Although it is still a distance from the million-dollar original, the watch is more than enough to satisfy your curiosity. If you read until the end, I hope this article was useful to you. We will be back with a more detailed review.
