About ZF

In my blog, I told the stories and development processes of some watch factories such as APS, Clean and 3K; Many people read these articles and found them interesting.

Clean factory: Evolution of the Clean factory
3K factory: About the 3K factory
APS factory: Secrets about the APS factory

Today I will introduce ZF. In another article I wrote recently, I mentioned some things about ZF; I mentioned the relationship between APS and ZF in one of my previous articles. Frankly, I know more about Clean, Noob, AR and other factories than ZF, because there are not many stories about ZF. I used to think that ZF was a big factory because they produced replicas covering many brands; But I was wrong. ZF is not big, they are not even a watch manufacturer. They just buy replica watches from other factories, put a "ZF" label on them, and then sell them to their customers. That's why I finally understand why ZF's watches are more expensive than other factories.

Unlike the other three factories we talked about before, ZF is not a watch manufacturer; Still, some watches from ZF are worth buying.

First up is the IWC Big Pilot. ZF buys these watches from AZ and replaces them with a better dial, and the price is slightly higher than the AZ Big Pilot. It's worth buying.

Second is the IWC Portuguese 7 Days Power Reserve. This watch from ZF is equipped with the custom-made 52010 movement developed by APS; This is one of the first generation custom-made movements in the industry and has a power reserve of approximately 3 days. ZF also used a better dial on the Portuguese 7 Days Power Reserve, and this watch made ZF known worldwide. It's worth buying.

Thirdly, ZF's Tudor replica watches are all of great quality, they are worth buying.

Detailed Review and Features

Fourth, about AP Royal Oak 15400 and 15500. I was always recommending ZF but now I changed my mind; You can buy them directly from APS factory, because ZF also buys these two models from APS and sells them at a higher price.

Sixth, Patek Nautilus 5711. Before the 3K factory developed the super clone 324 movement, ZF was making the best replica. Now, except for the blue/gray dial version, I recommend you buy replicas of other Nautilus 5711 models from 3K.

Seventh, the replica Patek Nautilus 5712. Only ZF makes this and the watch is really good and the movement is very stable. It's worth buying.

Eighth, the last two watches are Franck Muller V45 and Breguet Tradition. These two watches are of very high quality and are worth buying.
