Blancpain is the king of diving watches. Every swimming enthusiast wants to own one. However, the high price makes many watch lovers discouraged. However, the emergence of replica watches makes this problem no longer a luxury. Blancpain replica watches first appeared in the N factory. The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms of the N factory was one of the strongest works at that time and was called the five great artifacts. Later, the appearance of the ZF Blancpain Fifty Fathoms broke the myth of the N factory. The ZF Fifty Fathoms is truly a one-to-one replica of the original. The material selection is the same as the original. In addition, the ZF factory’s ingenuity has successfully launched the ceiling-level replica Blancpain Fifty Fathoms watch, so that watch lovers can rest assured to buy the Fifty Fathoms replica watch version that will not be fake at first glance.
To understand a replica watch, I like to explain a watch from the product development background, the cultural background of the genuine product, and the craftsmanship evaluation of the replica itself, because I think that as a watch, it is not only a decorative function but also a work of art. You need to understand the cultural background behind it. At the same time, as a replica watch, you also need to understand the strength of the factory and the stability of the watch’s craftsmanship movement. There are many garbage factories on the market, and you should try not to touch them if you can avoid them.
Let’s enjoy another classic work launched by ZF this time.
How is the workmanship of ZF Blancpain Fifty Fathoms 5015?
[Technical Difficulty] The bezel made of sapphire is the most valuable part of the watch. The hardness of sapphire is quite high, and the brittleness is strange. It is very difficult to handle. To achieve the original aura, slim and powerful effect, the yield rate can only be controlled at about 3 to 5 layers.
[The Essence] The domineering case is exquisitely made, and every polishing or brushing is patiently handled by ZF watchmakers. Ensure that the effect and charm can be with the original.
We are looking at the upgraded features of the ZF factory Blancpain Fifty Fathoms series 5015
- Correct the specifications and shape of the lugs (100% consistent with the original)
- Correct the details of the case to match the temperament of the original and enhance the texture of the watch head.
- Correct the luminous effect, expand the luminous part of the four Arabic numerals, and reduce the size of the metal edging to match the original version and enhance the luminous effect.
- Correct the problem of glass reflection and ghosting in the existing version on the market. After the correction, the violet coating effect is concentrated at the edge of the glass when observed from the side, which is clear at a glance. Restore the craftsmanship of the original.
Just looking at the dial, to be honest, it is definitely the most difficult part of the entire watch, especially the manual timing bezel, which is the most difficult. Why do you say that? Because the entire bezel is made of sapphire and polished into one piece, it puts forward extremely high requirements on the craftsmanship. In addition, after polishing, it must also meet the dual experience effects of vision and touch. It can be seen that ZF factory is first-class in craftsmanship. Only in this way can such a perfect watch be presented in front of us. This leads to a high scrap rate of the sapphire outer ring, so the cost is very high. Many watch fans may not understand why it costs hundreds of yuan to change the bezel. First, the sapphire material, second, the craftsmanship, and third, the scrap rate.
The dark blue dial, the radial pattern, the whole dial is simple and uncomplicated, giving people a simple and comfortable feeling.
The rose gold hour markers and hands have a very three-dimensional texture, and the luminous layer is also very uniform without any overflow. If you watch it at night, there will be a shiny luminous effect. The 3D one-piece font of the dial is very neat and round, and the hour markers are also filled with luminous light, which is convenient for reading time at night. There is a calendar window in the middle of four o’clock and five o’clock, with clear fonts and accurate positions. Even this small detail ZF factory has achieved excellence.
The violet film sapphire mirror is very charming and transparent. The 360-degree mirror is finely polished, and the charm of the sapphire bezel can be carefully appreciated from all angles.
Whether it is the overall case or the polishing of the edges and corners, ZF factory is very careful. While being shiny, it makes the whole watch more majestic and luxurious. There are engravings on the four corners of the lugs, which are clear and well-proportioned. The engravings on the case are sonorous and clear.
The side of the case is also a difficult part of this watch to reproduce. If you want to make the JB logo on the crown very three-dimensional, you still need a certain amount of skill.
The engraving on the bottom cover is still deep and three-dimensional. Although there are many engravings, the thickness, size and size ratio of each letter are just right.
The ZF Blancpain Fifty Fathoms rose gold movement uses the same replica 1315 automatic winding movement as the original, so there is absolutely no need to worry about the quality of the movement.
The strap is made of synthetic fiber, and the inner side is made of calfskin, which is durable. The letters engraved on the inner calfskin are very three-dimensional. The strap has delicate needles, so there is no need to worry about unthreading.
The buckle is a butterfly buckle, which is very beautiful when worn. The black strap is matched with a rose gold buckle, which is more elegant and luxurious.
Watch purchase experience
In May, I accidentally saw the new limited edition Barracuda and Air Force Commander on Instagram and was attracted by them. I couldn’t help myself instantly. The high-quality movement, retro taste, and the special surprise rotor, the most important thing is the military style, which is very suitable for matching retro clothing. I paid the deposit as soon as possible in early June, gave up the idea of purchasing on behalf of others, and went directly to the Beijing flagship store to handle it, because I wanted to get it as soon as possible! When I arrived at the store, I was told that I had to buy it together… Blancpain is not learning now.
But if I really like it, it’s not a problem. Who said the thing is hard? The target is fixed and unwavering, but choosing this bundled model is really difficult for me. I didn’t like the others… I just bought a new red, gold and blue ceramic dial to make up the number. When the watch arrived, I found it was so beautiful! The blue ceramic dial is elegant and matches my tattoo; the strap is well made, much better than the ordinary Fifty Fathoms. The blue is very individual and beautiful. The most important thing is that I love wearing jeans, and this color is a perfect match. The luminous light is needless to say, which is the strong point of this thing. In short, it is a surprise so I am very satisfied. I also chose a NB No. 7 and I am very happy. I feel that the limited edition of Target has been compared.
This thing is very distracting, but it is better, so that I don’t have to sell it at a loss. I will definitely keep this one. Let me share the picture of the watch without further ado. By the way, I would like to share my personal feelings. Buying watches is pure consumption for me, so I have no distractions. I don’t care about value preservation or appreciation. What I want is attitude and a real match that suits my daily life. I was not disappointed in choosing Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. Half a year ago, I was too lazy to even look at this brand, but now I have become a die-hard fan. I hope the brand will get better and better and produce more excellent styles.
