NEW Factory replica watch RM88 black ceramic
As a seasoned reviewer, review articles are never about piling up flowery language but rather speaking with data and letting the details speak for themselves. Today, we are going to disassemble the Richard Mille RM88 replica watch from NEW Factory. This bark-shaped skeletonized tourbillon watch, equipped with the “Super Clone CRMT7 movement”, featuring an ATZ black ceramic bezel and a transparent back, is it genuine material or just a concept hype? Let’s find out. However, the decoration on the dial gives this watch a contrast. The barrel-shaped case is exquisitely carved by NEW Factory using five-axis CNC. The curvature of the case matches the genuine product by over 95%, providing a comfortable wearing experience. The level of NEW Factory can be considered relatively high.
Let’s take a look at the visual center together. Whether it’s the placement, size or Angle, it’s all very faithful to the genuine product. These sculptures such as the smiling face pattern, the sun, the cactus, and the rainbow, as well as the 19 micro-carved three-dimensional decorative carvings, are also perfectly restored in terms of craftsmanship and are extremely exquisite. Details are a small reference standard for testing the technical level of a factory. From this, it can be seen that the technology of NEW Factory is still acceptable, but it just has a bit of a mechanical feel and lacks the artificial refinement of genuine products. It cannot stand up to long-term careful appreciation. Overall, the appearance restoration degree can reach over 96%. The black fabric leather strap that comes with it feels very comfortable to wear. The strap can also be changed by yourself, which is very convenient. The knitting process on the watch strap is also very well done. The NEW factory claims that it was handcrafted by an experienced master and is very durable. The black strap paired with the black case creates a unified visual effect, highlighting the childlike charm on the dial and concentrating the visual focus on it. The design is highly creative. The clasp is made of titanium alloy. After polishing, it feels comfortable to the touch, opens and closes smoothly, and is comfortable to wear.
The difficulty in making this wristwatch lies in the skeletonized movement. As there are many elaborately carved small ornaments on the dial, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the movement structure while precisely measuring the dimensions and removing the excess materials. This process requires a very high level of skill and craftsmanship to achieve. The position and size of each hole must be precisely calculated. For watch enthusiasts who want to see the materials and performance of the movement, you can read my other two review articles, where there are detailed reviews. The polishing, chamfering process and brushing of each part all reflect the level of the watchmaker. Through the back transparent, you can see that the skills of the NEW factory’s masters are not bad. The tourbillon movement is a highlight of this watch. On both the front and back, you can see the rapidly rotating tourbillon mechanism. This is the charm of mechanical watches. The NEW factory has also optimized the winding system, equipped with ball bearings, which has improved the winding efficiency and enhanced the stability. It is a very suitable wristwatch for daily wear.
Now let’s talk about the differences from the genuine product. In terms of weight, this NEW factory Richard Mille RM88 black ceramic replica watch is lighter than the genuine one. The NEW factory uses a titanium alloy inner titanium and ceramic case, while the genuine one uses 18K red gold, giving it a more substantial feel. The water resistance of this watch is not as good as that of the genuine one. It’s fine for daily hand washing and such. But when I took it for a swimming test, I noticed a slight fog inside the watch crystal. The NEW factory still needs to improve its water resistance. Be cautious when taking it for swimming. The stability performance is still good. Basically, the timekeeping is accurate and stable. If your budget is limited but you still want to experience the mechanical aesthetics of a tourbillon, you can consider purchasing it.
