Description
APS Factory replica watch IWC pilot IW388103
This is a relatively classic aviation-style wristwatch. Can APS Factory do it well? Because APS Factory mainly focuses on Audemars Piguet replicas, but also has ventured into other brands. This is one of them. Now let’s see if they have achieved the tough style of IWC pilots and if the movement meets the standards. Let’s take a look at the evaluation below. Take a look at whether the APS factory’s IWC Pilot IW388103 replica watch is worth getting.
Overall appearance, temperament and detail control
One of the most basic requirements is to make it look like a replica watch, but to achieve the ultimate, it is necessary to examine the technology and craftsmanship of the factory. The size of the APS factory’s IWC pilot is also exactly 41MM. This size perfectly replicates the original version and is currently the most popular size for men’s watches. It can be worn by people of all wrist thicknesses and looks very harmonious without any sense of incongrnity. The green dial of the APS factory is worthy of praise. Why do I say so? Because the color saturation is moderate. When compared with the genuine product, there is no difference. In terms of color, they both have a retro military green texture. The original texture on the dial will also have a color change, that is, the sunburst texture, and will not have the bright green and dead green effects of cheap watches. The Arabic numeral hour markers and hand scales on the dial are all covered with luminous coating, which is also a classic configuration for IWC pilots. During the test, it can be seen that the luminous effect is very excellent. It can quickly glow in the dark environment, and the luminous effect on it can be seen that it is very uniform. The luminous duration can also reach about 6 hours. It fully meets the daily need to check the time at night.
The strap of APS factory is made of deep blue calfskin. When worn on the hand, you can feel that the texture is soft and not very stiff. The calfskin also has good breathability. This calfskin material is also resilient and relatively durable. The stitching can also be seen, which is very neat. The pin buckle on the watch clasp is also made of stainless steel, and the engravings on it are also clear. When worn, it can be firmly fixed on your wrist, giving you a great sense of security. The crown on the side of the case is a screw-down design, which is very smooth to operate. After being tightened, it can effectively prevent water vapor from entering the interior of the case. The brand logo engraving on the crown is also very clear and three-dimensional, without any blurring or distortion. The overall appearance looks very faithful to the original.
The integrity of the function
Functional completeness is also very important for a replica watch. The IWC Pilot from APS factory has also restored the necessary functions, and all of them are real and usable. Both the day of the week and the date window are located at the 3 o ‘clock position. It adopts a dual-calendar coaxial design. Adjusting the date is also very simple. Rotate the crown one position. Rotating it upwards adjusts the day of the week, and rotating it downwards adjusts the date. The timing function is also very stable in operation and can meet the daily timing needs. Running and cooking can both be recorded, which is very convenient.
The APS factory’s IWC Pilot IW388103 replica watch is equipped with the self-developed 69385 movement. The layout is similar to the genuine product, which can avoid the situation of being identified as fake at first glance. Although the power reserve is not as good as that of the genuine product, it does not affect daily wearing. Although the movements of APS factory perform quite well, there is still room for improvement in some details, such as differences in materials and minor structures, which also need to be upgraded and improved. However, at this price, the overall cost performance of this replica watch is still relatively high.
