Hello everyone, I am the editor of the watch factory N. I have written many reviews of the ZF Portuguese Seven. In fact, everyone should have an understanding of its workmanship. If you don’t understand, you can also search for “ZF Portuguese Seven” on the site. Of course, this article also evaluates its quality. It is a very worthwhile detoxification model!
First, let’s take a look at the details of the ZF IWC Portuguese Seven V5 version:
Case: 316L stainless steel, CNC fine grinding; sapphire mirror glass, synchronous mirror on the bottom cover; the movement is a modified 7750 movement, the function is matched, the kinetic energy storage is real, and the power is more than 4 days. The difference between the first generation movement and the fifth generation movement is very large, and they are not at the same level at all. In 2017, the ZF factory launched the V5 version of the IWC Portuguese Seven Days Chain, and fully opened up the market, and established the first replica of the same market; the size is matched, the strap is cowhide with crocodile leather texture, plus a superb replica of the stainless steel buckle!
ZF Factory IWC Portuguese Seven-Day Chain In-depth Review
This watch can be said to have contributed no less than 10 million yuan in profits to the factory. Among the genuine products, this is a 100,000 yuan boutique. There are many watch fans who are addicted to it, but basically many people will not spend 100,000 to buy the genuine product of this watch. The ZF factory also purchased the genuine product one-to-one replica, with excellent workmanship, which has become the best choice for these watch fans to detoxify. I will deeply disassemble the IWC Portuguese Seven-Day Chain replica watch of the ZF factory for everyone.
Overall: The factory has made huge profits from this watch. In order to ensure the first place in the market, it is strictly built according to the genuine size and details. The appearance size is designed one-to-one, and 42.3 is suitable for Chinese wrists. In fact, if you look closely, you can find that the dial color of this watch is not pure white, but a slightly yellowish color, which gives people a warmer and more textured feeling overall! In terms of design, there are two small seconds dials at the nine o’clock position and the three o’clock position respectively. The nine o’clock position is the small seconds dial, and the three o’clock position is the seven-day power storage dial! The calendar window is placed at the six o’clock position, and the calendar background color is the same as the background color of the dial, and the small details are handled in place! The anti-glare blue coating on the front and back sides makes the sapphire mirror surface
The whole watch is more transparent! The thickness of the ZF Portuguese Seven on the side is consistent with the original, and the brushed treatment of the shell has been worked hard, and the brushed treatment of the shell is close to perfect.
Accessories: The crown of the ZF factory IWC Portuguese Seven Days Chain is also interchangeable with the original. The opening width and depth of the anti-slip teeth of the crown and the length of the crown pulled out are synchronized. There is no big problem with the LOGO engraving on the crown. The clasp parts are the least flawed in my opinion. Whether it is the brushed details, the processing of the edges and corners, or the restoration of the entire structure, they are all very perfect. Therefore, in my opinion, this is an ultra-high-quality imitation IWC folding clasp. If someone’s genuine clasp has problems, you can buy the ZF factory’s Portuguese Seven Days Chain clasp, which is completely universal and exquisitely made.
Disk: rail-style minute circle, embossed Arabic numerals, willow-shaped hands: no other watch can so prominently display the unique features of a typical IWC Portuguese series watch. The IWC seven-day chain replica made by ZF factory adopts the same process steps, even the curvature of the calendar window is consistent with the original, truly achieving the category of super replica. You can refer to the following picture, which is a comparison picture of the IWC Portuguese seven-day chain made by ZF factory and the original. Facts speak louder than words.
Movement: Synchronous with the official 2016 new model, ZF factory removed the plywood in the middle of the Dandong 7750 movement and re-attached a new large plywood. The plywood is not flat but has a three-dimensional sense. The position and production process of the parts are basically the same as the original. The plywood of the entire movement is copied to the back of the movement of the replica, which basically achieves the effect of the original and achieves better anti-rust and aesthetic effects. And the movement adjusted by ZF factory has better stability and lower repair rate. Of course, there are still big differences compared to the genuine movement. The genuine 52000 movement series is characterized by a double barrel, which can provide enough energy for the watch’s 7-day power reserve and drive energy-intensive complex functions such as the annual calendar or perpetual calendar.
How does the ZF IWC Portuguese 7-Day Chain compare to the genuine one?
Regarding the ZF IWC Portuguese 7-Day Chain replica and genuine evaluation, the author has a special introduction in the above article, which you can refer to. In my opinion, this watch has reached the category of one-to-one super replica. If you have to be harsh about the difference, then it is the difference between art and non-art. For example, the genuine 52000 movement, double barrel, double barrel can achieve an impressive 7-day power reserve. The winding pawl and automatic wheel are made of black ceramic, while the rotor bearing is made of white ceramic. Thanks to this extremely strong high-tech material, the automatic winding operation is almost wear-free. Although the replica has achieved the same function and has a kinetic energy storage of about four days, it is still not as good as the genuine one in this performance.
Then there are the details after magnification, such as the three-dimensional time scale on the dial. The genuine one is more neat, and the color is slightly different after magnification. For example, the movement, every spare part of the genuine one can be used, because the replica is just decoration, it is not so three-dimensional and beautiful, but these do not affect it from being a super replica watch, after all, one is 100,000, and the other is less than 3,000.
