“Put two creative people in a room, and watch the magic happen.” While it might not exactly work like that, a joined project between two designers, artists or brands can lead to wonderful new things. It happens in art, it happens in fashion, and as you’ve guessed it, it happens in watchmaking. Over the years the ‘collaboration game‘ has spawned some incredibly cool creations, often bringing two cultures together in one single Swiss made replica watches. Even though it’s not a guaranteed recipe for success, these recently introduced collaboration UK luxury replica watches have a lot going for themselves!

A lot has been written about neo-vintage dress watches. It certainly makes sense – in the 1980s and 1990s, many watch manufactures embarked on a journey to relearn and rediscover the art and science of the complicated wristwatch. These top replica watches were generally slim, cased in precious metals, and elegant. In looking at this segment of neo-vintage watches, however, I feel many collectors overlook the other end of the spectrum: the inventive and amazing sports fake watches online UK that were launched during this time. In the inaugural article in The Collector’s Corner, I wrote about the IWC Doppelchronograph reference 3711. Let’s revisit 1990s IWC in this article and take a look at a watch that gives the Rolex Sea-Dweller a run for its money. Enter the IWC GST Aquatimer 2000. Water resistant down to 2,000 meters? Check. Integrated bracelet? Check. Instant coolness? Oh yes, check indeed!
IWC is best known for its aviation-themed perfect copy watches – so I think it’s worth taking a closer look at the Schaffhausen company’s less publicized foray underwater. IWC’s first plunged into the world of dive watches with the ref. 812 Aquatimer in 1966, a reference which became the namesake for all luxury replica IWC’s aquatic watches. The ref. 812 was equipped with two crowns and an internal diving bezel, and achieved a 200m water-resistance rating thanks to a super-compressor case construction. In a super-compressor case, the caseback is spring-loaded, which means it has some give and doesn’t sit completely pressed against the gasket inside. As external pressure increases, however, the caseback is pressed further into the gasket (compressing it), thereby achieving what can be described as dynamic water resistance.
The next step in the Aquatimer’s history came with the ref. 3504, the Porsche Design Ocean 2000, whose civilian version was produced between 1982 and 1986. The Ocean 2000 was a radical break from the styling cues established in the ref. 1812 – crafted entirely out of bead-blasted titanium, the Ocean 2000 was flowing and round, with an organic bracelet that seamlessly integrated the case. Despite its soft curves, the Ocean 2000 was extremely capable, being the first dive watch capable of withstanding depths up to 2000 meters. In the typically overengineered fashion of late-20th century IWC, the bezel featured a safety mechanism: it needed to be depressed on two points on opposite sides of the bezel to be turned.
When Porsche terminated their agreement with IWC in March 1998, it was clear that IWC needed a replacement. After all, Porsche Design fake watches for men are estimated to have made up to 20% of IWC’s sales toward the end of the relationship. The importance of the Porsche Design era to IWC’s heritage can’t be exaggerated. The designs were bold and, more importantly, the Porsche Design range established IWC as a true player in incorporating advanced materials science in watchmaking. Case in point, the 1986 IWC Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar 3755 which was the world’s first wristwatch with a black zirconium oxide case – IWC’s way of saying “Hey, we can do it in a dress watch too!”
So, coming back to the need for a replacement, IWC presented the GST line in Vicenza in September 1997. The GST collection was so named, rather unimaginatively if you ask me, for the three metals the collection was offered in gold, steel, and titanium. Adding the “G” in the name of the collection was a bit of an oversight, it turned out, as only the first-generation GST Chronograph and the GST Alarm were offered in an 18k gold case and bracelet.
The GST replica watches site featured a strong, angular case, and an integrated bracelet. They were masculine and outright sporty. That brings me to what is probably the sportiest of the lot – the GST Aquatimer 2000.
The IWC GST Aquatimer 2000 – The Basics
The high quality replica IWC ref. 3536 Aquatimer watches was presented in three variations: titanium with black dial (ref. 3536-001), steel with black dial (ref. 3536-002), and steel with silver dial and gold-plated hands and indices (ref. 3536-003). Regardless of the case material and dial, the basic measurements are the same: 42mm diameter, 14.5mm thickness, with a lug-to-lug measurement of 49.5mm (watch only). Due to the flare of the bracelet’s first integrated links, the latter measurement balloons to close to 57mm when the watch is worn on its bracelet. The canister-shaped case gives way to sharp, well-defined lugs that jut out from the case flank. The big-crown look is completed with a very prominent crown at 3, signed with the traditional IWC fish logo, and no crown guards.
Despite the extreme capabilities of the Aquatimer 2000 (again, 2000 meters!), you’ll notice the absence of a helium escape valve. I suppose that’s what happens when the watch is built so robustly that no helium can even enter the case. Grand Seiko did something similar in the Hi-Beat 36000 Professional 600m Diver’s from 2017.
The case finishing depends on the case material. In titanium, the watch gains a look that can be best described as tactical. The case and bracelet are entirely bead-blasted – not even the flanks of the bracelet links are polished. Though some may lament the lack of refinements in the finishing department, we need to understand that this watch isn’t trying to be refined. It’s trying to be the best tool it can. On the steel models, the case is primarily linearly brushed, with some polished accents, such as on the case flanks and on the intermediary bracelet links. The caseback of all IWC ref. 3536 Aquatimer super clone watches shop is adorned with the “International Watch Co. Schaffhausen” script and the image of a German U-Boot.
The no-frills aesthetic continues to the dial, which is printed white on a matte black base. In keeping with the uniform design, the date wheel, too, is white print on a black base. I like date displays that don’t call undue attention to themselves – the date is there when you need it, but it doesn’t scream for attention.
There is a wonderfully unique double index at 12 o’clock for orientation. At 6 o’clock, you have the signature – as the Aquatimer can be found in both tritium or Luminova variants, you’ll see both “T SWISS MADE T” and “SWISS MADE” signatures. A note on the tritium versions: IWC wanted to achieve colour differentiation for easier identification of the orientation of the watch and of the hands versus other markings. In order to do that, the hands, the index at 12 o’clock, and the bezel pearl all used tritium markings, whereas the dial markers except at 12 used Luminova. The switch to full Super-Luminova came after roughly 2000.
The hands are pencil-shaped, matte white lacquered, and have the same granular texture you think of when you picture a Speedmaster’s handset. Note: the steel models feature applied indices, with polished hour and minutes hands.
Coming to the bezel next, the calibrations are done in relief in what is possibly the only element of the watch you could consider slightly embellished. There is a slight asymmetry to the bezel insert, as you’ll see that it flares out at 12 o’clock, becoming wider to accommodate a large lume plot. Yes, this is a dive watch so it’s a unidirectional bezel, of course, and has 60 clicks.
The bezel has three quirks: First, it’s machined from a solid piece of the respective metal to match the case – no inserts here! The base of the bezel is black chrome-plated for a high-contrast look against the numerals in relief. Second, there are actually four screws holding the bezel in place so it cannot accidentally pop off. This kind of bezel is known as a captive bezel. Incidentally, the 1:1 fake watches was originally shipped with a screwdriver that could be used to remove the bezel for thorough cleaning. Finally, much like the Ocean 2000’s bezel, the Aquatimer 2000’s bezel needs to be pushed down before it can be turned.
Now, let’s come to the bracelet. It is a two-link bracelet, with H-shaped primary links and rectangular intermediaries. The bracelet is an integrated affair, with the first primary link after the junction with the case matching the width of the lugs, before tapering down to 18mm. IWC was way ahead of its time, equipping the bracelet with a quick-release system to add and remove links quickly. It was such a good system that IWC still uses it to this day! The bracelet ends in a single-trigger deployant clasp, which is nicely circular-grained inside.
The bracelet has two downsides. The first is the large flare due to the rigid outcropping of the lugs, making the Swiss made replica watches a difficult fit for those of us with small wrists. The second is that there are few replacement strap options because of the proprietary lug junction. An optional velcro strap in black or grey was offered – these straps attached to the first male link of the bracelet. Luckily, the fabric strap from the IW3715-36 and the alternate rubber strap from the IW3548 fit the Aquatimer!
The best quality replica IWC Aquatimer 2000 watches is powered by an ETA calibre 2892-A2 (calibre 37524 in IWC parlance), which underwent a thorough upgrade by IWC, including the use of a 21k gold rotor mass. The early models are entirely gilded, later Aquatimers’s calibres get a nickel-plated treatment. Other features of this tried-and-tested movement include a beat rate of 28,800 vibrations per hour, bidirectional winding, a power reserve of 42 hours, features 5-position adjustment, a quickset date, and hacking seconds.
Why should you consider the IWC GST Aquatimer?
If you’re feeling a bit of integrated bracelet fatigue, I don’t blame you. Looking at the designs of the last few years, some stylistic choices look a little too familiar, and many of the new entrants are just a tad derivative. But to those of you who have not entirely given up on the genre, I say: let’s look to the past! The IWC GST Aquatimer is a fantastic example of a watch that firmly fits into this genre while looking nothing like the usual suspects. I mean, how many other integrated bracelet hardcore divers can you name off the top of your head?
So, the first reason why you should consider this watch is functionality. The Aquatimer does not yield an inch to the Rolex Sea-Dweller when it comes to being an epically overengineered dive watch. And it’s thinner to boot! I consider the bracelet to be one of the many strengths of the watch, with a solidity and feeling of quality that would feel at home on modern Swiss top fake watches, let alone one made over thirty years ago. There are so many additional features built in to make the watch tank-tough, it’s really a testament to the incredible build quality IWC had achieved even back then. Look at the quick link removal system or the captive bezel construction – to the technical-minded watch collector looking for a luxury diver, this is now at the top of my recommended list!
Second, price. There seems to be quite a spread on Chrono24, depending on condition and accessories. An example will run you between EUR 4,000 and 7,000. Let’s split the difference and call it EUR 5,500. I have seen some great offers around the 3,000 mark not too long ago, so it doesn’t hurt to keep looking. Even though the steel replica watches for sale were likely produced in fewer numbers than those in titanium, there doesn’t seem to be much of a premium. Of course, the rarest and most collectable of the Aquatimers is the ref. 3536-003 in stainless steel with silver dial and yellow gold-plated hands and indices. All told, only 600-800 were produced. There aren’t too many comps or recent sales that I can find, but those that I did land squarely in the same range described earlier. No matter how you slice it, you’re getting an incredible package. I mean, you could even pick up a Tudor Ranger and have some cash to spare compared to the Sea-Dweller!
Given a choice, I would go for the version in titanium. I feel it better represents the ethos of IWC in the last years before the company was acquired by Richemont. Additionally, the titanium version best carries forward the legacy of the Porsche Design era of the company and of IWC’s history-making dive replica watches wholesale as a whole.
For IWC’s latest collaboration with Lewis Hamilton, the luxury Swiss watchmaker reimagines the 2023 luxury replica IWC Portugieser watches, one of its oldest and most recognizable models in an alluring teal hue.
When it comes to clothing, the seven-time F1 world champion often sports bold, vibrant hues, eye-catching patterns, as well as unusual designs. As an extension of Hamilton’s look, the high quality UK fake watches also borrows aesthetic cues from his expressive and adventurous dress style. Precious platinum houses the enchanting teal dial, measuring 43.5mm in diameter and providing ample room to showcase a well-proportioned and finely embellished perfect replica watches face.
The center of the dial for best copy watches is affixed with slightly recessed displays for the retrograde date and chronograph, while 12 diamonds accentuate the outer ring, with each one accompanying a different Arabic numeral. A particular spotlight is directed at the flying hacking minute tourbillon, which sits at the 6 o’clock mark, where its balance wheel can be observed via its small cage.
Powering this striking special-edition replica watches for sale is the in-house 89900 automatic-winding caliber. Fitted with 42 jewels, and an 18-carat gold oscillating weight, the intricate movement can be clearly observed via the sapphire crystal exhibition caseback.
As the perfect finishing touch, that Swiss made super clone watches is paired with a teal-colored textile strap. The strap also boasts a slight sheen to echo the finishing of the dial. With only 44 examples produced, the 1:1 wholesale fake IWC Portugieser Tourbillon Rétrograde Chronograph Lewis Hamilton limited edition watches has a retail price point of $169,000 USD.
“And through it all, we’ll play the way we want too, with big Ange Postecoglou. Whether I’m right or wrong.” In this instance, Robbie Williams – and the Spurs fans singing this chant all around N17 – might be right. For now at least, Tottenham Hotspur have a new ange-l of a manager in no-nonsense talking Aussie larrikin, Ange Postecoglou.
Such is the Spursy nature of both Spurs fans and players, that could change in the space of a few matches. Completely irrespective of this, Postecoglou’s cheap UK replica watches game is all class, albeit very much not reflective of the lively way in which he has Heung-Min Son, James Maddison et al playing football.
That’s not to say he wears boring Swiss made fake watches – they are just a bit more on the classic side than we perhaps anticipated from the former Celtic, Yokohama F Marinos, Australia, Melbourne Victory, Brisbane Roar and Whittlesea Zebras (us neither) gaffer. Given the goals, the drama and the entertainment that’s been on show so far, some might assume the person responsible could own a rowdy, more daring set of AAA replica watches.
The last time Spurs won a trophy (2008 and counting), the Aussie was doing very little of note as the coach for Greek side Panachaiki. But having won the treble at Celtic last season, there are high hopes silverware might be on its way to White Hart Lane, not just in the shape of Postecoglou’s 1:1 top copy watches collection.
It’s very early in the season but so far it appears he has two go-to pieces (a Rolex Explorer II and an IWC Portugieser Automatic, both 42mm). Though there are no signs of him being superstitious (like he is with his lucky jumper) about rocking one at home games and the other away – yet – there are certainly a few details we can read into to determine how successful a Spurs manager he might be*.
Replica Rolex Explorer II ‘Polar’ 16570 Watches
Some people flex fake watches for sale; Postecoglou definitely just wears his. Nevertheless, in the 2-2 season opener against Brentford, intentionally or not Postecoglou showed his allegiance to his new club (the Lilywhites) through the colour of his watch – wearing white high quality replica Rolex Explorer II watches. This might sound like an oxymoron but the Explorer II is one of the more accessible (affordable and attainable) Rolex models, as well as being one of the sportiest. This plays into Postecoglou’s no-fuss approach to seemingly everything. It’s a watch that tells him the time, the date, and can handle a bit of an adventure week in week out (aka the highs and lows of supporting Spurs).
One other thing to note about the luxury Rolex Explorer II super clone watches is that over the 50-odd years it’s been in existence, the look of it hasn’t changed much. As many watch nerds can attest, Rolex is all about incremental changes and design continuity is one factor that makes the Crown so successful and stable in value. Success via stability is definitely something Spurs fans will be hoping big Ange can bring to their team. Also seen wearing it again for Spurs’ demolition of Burnley goes some way to proving it might be his no.1 choice.
Fake IWC Portuguieser Automatic IW500710 Watches
Postecoglou’s predecessors – of which there are many recent ones – were (generally speaking) far more fancy and flash in their horological tastes. Antonio Conte had a tussle with Thomas Tuchel wearing a Rolex Daytona and Jose Mourinho was big into Hublot Big Bangs to name a few. That said, anyone who knows about Swiss movements replica watches will vouch for the fact that having this classic IWC model play second fiddle to a Rollie doesn’t just point to astute watch rotation, it also shows big Ange hasn’t just googled best wholesale fake watches for football managers and followed suit. If he had googled such, he might have noticed Jurgen Klopp is a big IWC fan, though he’s more of a Big Pilot’s kinda guy. Postecoglou and Portuguieser may be a perfect match (phonetically as well as tonally to Spurs away colours) but given this model has been classed as a benchmark in the world of luxury replica watches online for – wait for it – more than 90 years, him strapping one to his wrist denotes a level of horological knowledge and expertise that not only surpasses past Spurs coaches, but also reveal much about his personality. He’s far more interested in doing his homework rather than just going along with the hype – be it for his players, tactics or watches.
While there remains a level of consistency between the two perfect replica watches (same size, both automatic movements), it’s the differences (tool watch vs pilot’s watch; steel bracelet vs leather strap; white vs blue dial) that show Postecoglou has a plan B when plan A isn’t working. Which is why, however mad it might seem, we believe his watch game provides as good a bearing as any about how Postecoglou will fare at Spurs – regardless of what Robbie Williams sings about him.
Summer is a little late in arriving in Europe this year. I write this with the wind whipping at the olive trees under an overcast sky outside my window, an altogether dampening prospect for someone who thrives in heat and humidity (rather like the poppies my team and I tried to grow from seeds, which are currently huddling in skinny clusters in their pot near our office window). It’s mid-May over here, and we shouldn’t still be seeing people in the street wearing fluffy anoraks; I object strenuously to this. To ward off these wily gusts of chilling wind and intrusive clouds (no one invited them here), we’re giving this Monday morning a much-needed booster shot of colour.
Lagoon turquoise. Sunset violet. Bahamas blue. Verdant green. Pamplemousse pink. These aren’t the names of the colours used in the official descriptions of the following AAA best replica watches, but they might as well be. These timepieces evoke the vivid hues of summer, of long vacation days and frosty cocktails under a beach umbrella. Strap one on and feel inspired for your next flight out to paradise.
Classic: Replica Patek Philippe Ladies’ Calatrava ref. 4997/200R-001 Watches
That lush, velvety purple of the dial takes you a thousand miles away from whatever drab office cube or cramped train carriage you’re in right now. There’s no watch as iconic as the UK perfect fake Patek Philippe Calatrava watches when it comes to old-school luxury, and this feminine model in rose gold with a diamond-set bezel reminds us that luxury is (above all else) about pleasure. The scalloped dial guillochage and inverted dart indexes radiate warmth, and if that isn’t enough to make you get your swimsuit out, the self-winding cal. 240 visible through the transparent caseback of the high quality copy watches should definitely help raise the ambient temperature at least a few degrees. Grab your hydrating facial mist — it’s getting hot in here.
Modern: Fake Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Shades Watches
Sleek, clean, light and with ten different dial colours to match any occasion, the 1:1 replica Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Shades watches is your next default travel timepiece. It’s undeniably built for action, with its rounded lugs and ergonomic bracelet, but the variety of dial shades ensures that whatever you do, you’re having fun doing it. The super clone watches wholesale comes in two case diameters, 34mm and 38mm, the perfect size range for all-day wear. Lastly, the Co-Axial Master Chronometer cal. 8800 beating within is a mechanical guarantee that the watch stays reliable and precise, unlike the wifi at that holiday villa you found on AirBnB.
Before 2023, I had never experienced the desire to plunge my face into a watch dial. Thanks to IWC and their new 2023 fake IWC Ingenieur Automatic 40 watches with aqua dial, that has now changed. The blended shade of green-blue (or is it blue-green?) used in this watch is simultaneously piercing and hypnotic, changing with the angle and light, like the pellucid waters of a sheltered lagoon. You want to dive headfirst into it. You will only be able to restrain yourself with great effort. The IWC Ingenieur was first designed as an antimagnetic watch to be worn by science professionals, and it is incredibly robust replica watches for sale in many ways. It is quite possible that it could also withstand repeated headbutting by an obsessed journalist, but I probably won’t try to prove it one way or another.
Sports: Hublot Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin Fake Watches
The eco-friendly message behind this green Swiss made replica watches may not exactly be subtle, but maybe that’s just what we need right now. The collaboration between Hublot and Nespresso shows us that partnerships between the two worlds of luxury and fast-moving consumer goods can be done without impinging on the values of either. The anodised aluminium case of the luxury replica Hublot Big Bang Unico Nespresso Origin watches is made out of recycled metal, part of which is sourced from spent Nespresso capsules. The grounds themselves are recycled in the straps, both the rubber and fabric options. The choice of material makes sense as well, since aluminium is prized for its lightness, perfect for a sports watch.
As a watch journalist, one must balance passion with objectivity when evaluating timepieces. Despite being considered obsolete luxury items by many, the emotional appeal of mechanical replica watches for sale has ensured their continued relevance. While technical aspects should be evaluated, it is rare for high-end brands to produce watches that don’t meet these standards.
However, when a journalist feels passionate about a particular brand, it can lead to heightened objectivity and a sense of ownership, resulting in perhaps overly high expectations for the brand’s performance and innovation.One brand that holds this status for me is IWC. At Watches & Wonders, I always make a point to visit the IWC booth as it is often features one of the most impressive displays in the foyer. This year, their big launch was the new Swiss made fake IWC Ingenieur watches.
Upon seeing a new watch, I typically experience a range of emotions, from excitement to sheer awe. However, when I first saw the new Ingenieur, I was surprised that it didn’t elicit any emotion from me. Nada. Although it was not unattractive or poorly-made cheap replica watches, it lacked any unique or stand-out qualities to distinguish it as the next chapter in IWC’s collection.
Genta Stardust
One of the highlights that IWC promoted was the Ingenieur’s connection to renowned designer Gérald Genta, whose designs have become increasingly popular in recent years. Even a decade after his passing, many enthusiasts view UK luxury copy watches bearing Genta’s name as something extra special, similar to the iconic Pininfarina design on a Ferrari.
Any brand that commissioned a design from him in the past is sitting on a potential goldmine. This includes, first and foremost, Audemars Piguet and Patek Philippe. The Royal Oak and the Nautilus are the most famous Genta designs, which credit both the designer and the two brands for maintaining these iconic timepieces’ familiar faces despite changing trends.
The top IWC Ingenieur replica watches already had a notable track record before Genta designed his version. Introduced around 1955, the reference 666, a sports watch back then, would now be considered a dress watch. Almost two decades later, Genta reshaped the Ingenieur, creating the Reference 1832, nicknamed ‘Jumbo’ due to its enormous 40mm diameter at the time.
Genta deserves credit for ushering the Ingenieur into a new era, as the last one with direct lineage to his pencil, Reference 3521, was discontinued in 2001. The Reference 3227, launched in 2005, was an exceptional successor, taking what was good from the Genta design and tweaking it slightly to meet current tastes.
However, with the introduction of the “Vintage Collection Ingenieur” in 2008, the waters became muddled as these designs drew back to the original Reference 666, offering two flavors of the same thing. IWC then entered an era of oversize designs that highlighted the Ingenieur’s unique features, resulting in a big departure from the original design language.
The Reference 3570 represented the next generation of Ingenieur, with a modern take on the early years’ design language, making it rather plain. The new IWC Ingenieur super clone watches wholesale is a breath of fresh air, but more like returning to a familiar place after years away. I expected more.
The difference between stainless steel and titanium
When handling the new Ingenieurs, I notice a difference between the stainless steel and titanium models. While there is much emphasis on the dial, I find the Reference 3227 equally enticing.
The green dial version may be too trendy, but I understand IWC’s need to make a profit. The prices for the Ingenieur also stirred some emotion within me.
The $11,700 price tag for the stainless steel models competes with other tempting IWCs, let alone the $14,700 cost for the titanium version. The titanium model appears more refined in its finishing, feeling noticeably more expensive than its stainless steel counterparts, which it is.
Although I appreciate Swiss movements IWC replica watches’ decision to restore the Ingenieur to its rightful state, I hesitate to embrace this new model because I expected more. Currently, it appears to be riding too much on the wave of “Genta-designed/nesque sports watches with integrated bracelets (and green dials).” Adding the “0” before all the single dates also feels gimmicky, rather than offering a full big date feature.
Despite anticipated demand at this price point, I think I need more time to fully digest this new fake IWC Ingenieur watches for men. To be continued.
In a bid to offer its clients something unique and discerning to their own distinctive tastes, IWC Schaffhausen has now introduced a new individualisation service. The new service allows customers to personalise their own luxury replica IWC Portugieser Chronograph watches.
This individualisation program kicked off in the Maison’s flagship boutiques at the Dubai Mall and Shanghai Taikoo Hui Mall. However the brand has revealed that it will roll-out the service in other flagship locations later on.
Taking individualisation to a new level, high quality IWC fake watches’ personalisation service allows clients to mix and match a variety of combinations for their Portugieser Chronograph. Clients can utilise different combinations of case materials, unique dial colours, and straps to create their personal version of the iconic chronograph directly on their wrist.
Once the creation is realised and ordered, the individualised timepiece is then delivered after approximately three weeks. Admittedly this new service is a game changer for the luxury watch space. After all, mechanical AAA replica watches is much more than an instrument measuring time. It also underscores its owner’s lifestyle, values and preferences.
As such, we can clearly see why 1:1 copy watches aficionados will want this service to launch in their respective markets soon. In allowing customers to personalise the Portugieser Chronograph, one of its most iconic models, IWC yet again breaks new ground and takes luxury UK replica watches personalisation to a whole new level.
For Discerning Individuals
In recent years, the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer has continuously expanded the possibilities for personalisation by offering a broad range of straps or bracelets as accessories to enhance versatility. However this new individualisation service is a game changer as it enables clients to become actively involved in the design process of their cheap super clone watches.
“They can assemble their favourite version of the Portugieser Chronograph using an attractive choice of case materials, dial colours, and straps,” explains Christian Knoop, Chief Design Officer at IWC Schaffhausen. “Unlike with an online configurator, different combinations of materials and colours can be tried out directly on the wrist, turning the individualisation process into an exciting and memorable experience.”
Best IWC fake watches has designed its individualisation display much like a console. Two cases in stainless steel and 18-carat 5N gold are at its centre. Once clients have selected a case material, they can choose one of 16 dial colours that were developed exclusively for this service. The palette includes vibrant and distinct shades such as turquoise, indigo, aubergine, or ginger. Each dial is available either with rhodium-plated or gold-plated appliques and hands.
The dial plaques attach magnetically to the cases, allowing customers to freely explore different combinations of materials and colours. Finally, the replica watches wholesale can be fitted with a strap of choice, ranging from colourful calfskin or alligator leather, leather alternatives such as TimberTex® and rubber straps to a high-grade stainless steel bracelet.
Once a client has decided on a final configuration, their timepiece then undergoes the individualisation service and will be delivered after approximately three weeks. A small “I” in a circle, placed in the small seconds subcounter at 6 o’clock, identifies each chronograph as an individually configured version, one that it is intimately tied to its wearer.
I have written about IWC before in this series. In a previous installment, I expressed my love for the classic IWC Ingenieur that Gérald Genta designed. It’s a watch that I have a stronger personal connection with than most Swiss made replica watches. But IWC has more great classics that deserve a glorious comeback. One of them is the first Aquatimer that the brand ever produced. The IWC Aquatimer ref. 812 was introduced in the late 1960s as the brand’s first diver. Over five decades later, the watch hasn’t lost its attractiveness. It’s time for a new Aquatimer ref. 812.
When IWC introduced the first Aquatimer ref. 812, the brand was pretty late to the diving game. As most of you will know, the brands that pioneered the genre introduced their first dive fake watches for sale over a decade earlier, and various brands introduced their takes in the years that followed. With the rise in popularity of professional and recreational scuba diving, we saw many designs and techniques incorporated into this then-new category of timepieces. It has led to a great variety of great vintage dive watches, and the IWC Aquatimer ref. 812 is certainly one of them.
The IWC Aquatimer ref. 812 — one of the Super Compressor divers
As soon as you see the first Aquatimer, you know that the brand used the now-famous Super Compressor case for the watch. Nowadays, when people think about dive replica watches wholesale, it’s all about a unidirectional ratcheting bezel with a large diving scale and accompanying markers. But the Super Compressor case, with its characteristic two crowns and internal rotating bezel, represents a different concept and aesthetic that many watch fans love.
The Super Compressor case was patented in 1956 by Ervin Piquerez SA, or EPSA as most people know it. The Swiss company produced the Super Compressor cases for roughly two decades before going out of business in 1975. During that time, many famous brands used the Super Compressor cases in their standard execution. Some brands used modified versions of the case as well. Among them were brands like Universal Genève, Enicar, Hamilton, Longines, Vulcain, and Jaeger-LeCoultre. But the list is a lot longer than that.
Only 2,000 pieces of the first Aquatimer were produced
When IWC introduced the Aquatimer ref. 812, the brand opted for a 37mm Super Compressor case. Just as a little side step, in addition to the ref. 812, you will also see the later ref. 812 AD. In essence, it was the same watch, with the AD referring to “automatic” and the date function. In 1972, when IWC changed its reference system to four-digit model numbers, the watch got reference number 1812. All three are the same AAA UK copy watches that stayed in production until 1982 when it was discontinued. Over 25 years, IWC produced only around 2,000 pieces of the first-generation Aquatimer.
But let’s get back to the watch itself. As I mentioned, the brand chose a 37mm Super Compressor case. It featured the two characteristic crowns embossed with the IWC fish at 2 and 4 o’clock and was water resistant to 200 meters. Most of you will know that the upper of the two screw-down crowns operates the internal diving bezel, while the lower crown is in charge of the time and date. Overall, I love the look of the case, which combines a round shape and straight lugs with the two crowns, giving it lots of character.
Four different dial variations define the Aquanaut’s presence
Speaking of character, IWC produced four different dials for the Aquanaut ref. 812 that make it into the stunner that I adore so much. The first came with a black dial and a black inner bezel, and the second featured a black dial with a silver bezel. The third model came with a white dial and a silver bezel, and the last of the four came with a white dial and a black bezel. The white/silver model is a very rare one, but you can find the other three variations without any problems. Out of the four dials, the two with the combination of black and white or black and silver are my favorite. They give the best replica watches a distinct character and make it into a watch I love.
The prototype that IWC produced actually featured a white dial and a white inner bezel. This one also had the image of a fish on the lower part of the dial. It’s a rather strange thing to see, but the all-white aesthetic made it look good. However, despite its good looks, IWC decided not to go forward with that version. On every production variant, the dials are graced by the applied hour markers and a date window at 3 o’clock. The baton hour and minute hands added an even more modern style to the luxury super clone watches, but the most characterful element is the thin paddle-neck seconds hand with its lume-filled tip. The dials all had a simple but incredibly effective design accompanied by big, straightforward bezel markings with numerals for 15, 30, and 45 minutes. It’s hard to fault the design in any of its executions.
The IWC caliber 8541 powered the Aquatimer 812
Inside the 37mm Super Compressor case, you will find cheap IWC fake watches’ caliber 8541. This self-winding movement featured IWC’s Pellaton winding system. It operated at 19,800vph, had 23 jewels, and provided a 44-hour power reserve. IWC also used the same movement for its Ingenieur ref. 866 models from that same era.
The brand actually made some improvements to the movement and introduced the caliber 8541B just before 1970. This new version featured hacking seconds and used a Grenier-type hairspring collet. IWC used both movements for the Ingenieur and this Aquatimer without distinguishing between them in its archives. It’s a rather curious detail, although it’s not really surprising in the watch world of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Would you like the IWC logo on the dial?
Another curious detail is the branding on the dial. You will find first-generation Aquatimers with and without an applied IWC logo. And the Aquatimer was not the only watch that “suffered” from that detail. IWC introduced the applied logo above the script name somewhere in the late ’60s or early ’70s. This is why you will see top replica watches from the same model range with and without it.
The remarkable thing is that IWC had models with and without the applied logo in the same collection, even the same model range. There are examples of the Ingenieur in the same catalog with different dials that do and do not have the applied logo. Generally, it’s hard to say what option you will see more often. In terms of aesthetics, I have a slight preference for the dial without the applied logo. It just looks a bit cleaner. That said, I would not let the presence of the applied logo stop me if I were seriously considering buying one.
There was a reissue of the IWC Aquatimer ref. 812 before
Overall, I love the story and looks and the first Aquatimer. As it is the first dive watch that IWC produced, it holds a special place in the history of the brand. This is also why the Aquatimer is still part of the current collection. While there are definitely still elements of the first China fake IWC Aquatimer watches to be found in the current range, the modern versions lack the charm of the vintage models. IWC did, however, produce a modern reissue of the ref. 812. In 2008, the brand released the Vintage Collection that featured the modern IWC ref. 3231.
This modern interpretation of the original ref. 812 saw a dramatic increase in size from 37mm to 44mm wide. The case had a lug-to-lug of 50mm and was 14.5mm thick. If you ask me, this reissue did capture the spirit of the original, but it was too big. Additionally, it came on a rubber/leather strap, whereas the original looks best with a nice beads-of-rice bracelet. It came in a stainless steel version with a black dial and a platinum version with a crisp white dial. Inside the case, IWC chose to equip the piece with the in-house caliber 80111.
Time for a return of the classic IWC ref. 812
While I like the efforts that IWC put into the Vintage Collection, it would be great to see the return of a proper homage to the original. If you would like to get your hands on one of the original IWC Aquatimer ref. 812 models, expect to see asking prices between roughly €10K–20K. These classics certainly do not come cheap, despite being widely overlooked. And frankly, I am not surprised because they are simply great 1:1 fake watches. That’s why the return of this classic in modern form would be something to look forward to.
But the reality of that happening seems slim. While IWC honors the names from the past, the brand sometimes dismisses the designs that made the classics from the ’60s and ’70s such great timepieces. I have said it in my article about the Genta Ingenieur SL1832 “Jumbo,” and the same goes for this Aquatimer; the history is there to make some amazing new versions of some great IWC classics. Until that happens, there is always room to hope that this wish will come true because the perfect replica IWC Aquatimer ref. 812 watches really is that good.
As part of the brand’s sustainability initiative, perfect replica IWC UK has embarked on its first partnership with the Faction Collective, a ski brand who proudly operates a 100 percent renewable energy factory in Austria. Faction was founded in 2006, and since then, it has been the choice of top athletes around the world, including IWC ambassador and the youngest Olympic gold medalist in freestyle skiing, Eileen Gu. Together, AAA quality fake IWC and Faction have designed a set of skis to pair with the watchmaker’s Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Top Gun Edition “Lake Tahoe” in white ceramic. Earlier this year, Swiss made copy IWC introduced two new iterations of its iconic Top Gun chronograph, a striking green “Woodland” model and a crisp white “Lake Tahoe” model. Lake Tahoe itself is about an hour and a half outside of the Navy’s Fighter Weapons School Top Gun, so the popular skiing destination feels like the perfect inspiration for the snowy white-ceramic IWC replica for sale UK with contrasting black dial and luminescent accents.
The luxury replica IWC Top Gun “Lake Tahoe” serves as further inspiration for the brand’s collaboration with the Faction Collective, which, for the first time, has created skis with a luminescent design. The Faction Studio 1 IWC Collab Ltd. design features a tone-on-tone white top sheet and a black base along with the words “Lake Tahoe” and “IWC,” both of which glow in the dark as the sun starts to set on the slopes.
Environmental responsibility was a continued focus in the production of the alpine accessory, which feature a wooden core that’s made of sustainably harvested poplar and ash. However, this doesn’t come at the expense of functionality, with the limited-edition skis engineered to the same specifications used for Eileen Gu’s.
“Graphic design with a clear and recognizable expression is an important tool for us at cheap super clone IWC to emphasize the engineering expertise and technicality of the brand,” says Nicholas Schmidt, UKAAA replica IWC’s head of brand creation and corporate design. “Therefore, designing a pair of skis with Faction was a great challenge. As an enthusiastic snowboarder and skier, I thoroughly enjoyed this project and am very proud of the result.”
The Faction Studio 1 IWC Collab Ltd. skis are available today, on Fraction’s website, in a limited run of 55 pairs in two different sizes, each priced at $749. With your purchase, you’ll also have the option to buy another accessory—your own matching Swiss movement fake IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Top Gun Edition “Lake Tahoe” watch.
Did you know that perfect fake IWC UK dropped a new Pilot’s Watch model? No, not this specific release. A few months ago, without notice, the Schaffhausen brand released the cheap replica IWC Pilot’s Watch Mark XX, a not-insubstantial upgrade from the still-available Mark XVIII. That initial stealth drop only showed two variants: a black dial and a blue dial, both with matching leather straps. It almost seems like a stutter step, because here we are, less than six months on, and the brand is announcing the “completion” of the top super clone IWC Mark XX collection. To round things out, they’ve added a green dial and a bracelet option for a total of six variants. Now that we have the full collection, though, it’s worth a further look at what it is and how it builds on past Mark replica watches online uk.
The new luxury replica IWC Pilot’s Watch Mark XX comes in three colors: classic matte black, sunburst green, and sunburst blue. The dial of the Mark series has always been about simplicity: In maintaining the spirit of the pilot’s watch as a tool for those actually flying, legibility was made the only priority. The 1:1 super clone IWC Mark XX sees small tweaks to this end. The dial is still printed with white, but the cardinal indices have been extended and the numerals moved in a bit to make room for them. The handset remains the same, with silver hands filled with Super-LumiNova. The date window is no longer color-matched (on the black dial copy model), which is a shame, but not a huge issue since there is so much white on the dial that the white of the date wheel doesn’t stand out.
The 40mm case has also seen some minor tweaks. The lugs have been shortened to 49.2mm from 51mm and the thickness has been slimmed to 10.8mmm from 11mm. The case is brushed throughout, save for the bezel and a sliver of a chamfer along the lugs. Another change is that the crown has been increased in size, which should improve its operation. Further, water resistance has been bumped from 60m to 100m, allowing a bit more comfort and making this officially a go-anywhere, do-anything watch. The new dimensions of the aaa quality replica IWC Pilots Mark XX make it look like it will feel a bit more prominent on the wrist, given its shorter lug-t0-lug that will have the case proper standing out a bit more. The watch is offered on a leather strap (black and blue are matched to the dial, green comes with a brown strap) or a 5-link bracelet with a blend of polishing and brushing fitted with a push-button folding clasp.
The two biggest changes remain hidden on the wrist, though. The first is an entirely new, in-house movement, the IWC 32111 Calibre. The main upgrade here is the extended 120-hour power reserve, tripling that of the Sellita-based 35111 found in the high quality fake IWC Mark XVIII. It maintains the 28,800 vph, adds Côtes de Genève and perlage finishing, and reduces the number of jewels necessary from 25 to 21. The other update is the strap and bracelet options. Notably, they all feature Swiss made replica IWC’s EasX-Change quick-change system, which allows the strap or bracelet to connect to any compatible springbars by the simple push of a tab. To boot, the pin buckle on the straps can be swapped between compatible straps. It’s an interesting take on the increasingly popular proprietary strap-changing system, which usually integrates the springbar into the strap or bracelet, and as mentioned, it is compatible with any super clone watch uk fitted with the right springbars.
If we’re being honest, this is an incremental, if welcome, evolution of the Mark series. It sees the introduction of a new movement, the integration of Swiss movement replica IWC’s proprietary strap changing system, and a few tweaks to the dial and case. For those who have always loved IWC Pilot’s watches, the Mark XX and its six options will be a no-brainer. For those who may have been waiting to snag one of the Mark series super clone watches for sale, the Mark XX is technically the best ever made. Of course, for those who find the collection too bland, this new series is unlikely to change your feelings. The high end fake IWC Pilot’s Watch Mark XX is priced at $5,250 on leather and $6,150 on bracelet (for those keeping track, that’s $600 and $750 more than their respective predecessors).
