Super Clone Watches

We have been selling super clone watches for long enough to know which factories actually deliver and which ones coast on reputation. The catalog sits at 1,876 pieces across twelve brands right now. It changes monthly as factories release new versions and we drop the ones that stop meeting our QC bar. If you see it listed here, it passed inspection this quarter.

Most of our customers land on this page already knowing the model they want. If that is you, scroll down or use the brand links below. If you are still deciding, the two sections after the brand list will save you some research time.

Browse by Brand

Rolex — 446 models. This is the deepest section of the catalog. Submariner, Daytona, GMT-Master, Datejust and ten more collections. All 904L steel.
Richard Mille — 302 models. Carbon TPT and titanium tonneau cases. RM 011, RM 035, RM 055. These are difficult to get right and not every factory manages it.
Patek Philippe — 242 models. Nautilus and Aquanaut make up the bulk. Calatrava, Cubitus and grand complications round it out.
Omega — 171 models. Seamaster and Speedmaster are the two most requested. Aqua Terra is underrated for daily wear.
Audemars Piguet — 148 models. Royal Oak from 37mm to 44mm, plus Offshore chronographs. The tapisserie dial finishing is what most buyers check first.
IWC — 96 models. Big Pilot, Portugieser, Aquatimer. Strong movement options from ZF on most references.
Breitling — 93 models. Navitimer with the slide rule bezel, Chronomat, Superocean.
Cartier — 84 models. Tank, Santos, Ballon Bleu, Panthere. The Santos in medium size has been one of our most consistent sellers this year.
Hublot — 76 models. Big Bang and Classic Fusion. Ceramic and King Gold options.
Panerai — 73 models. Luminor and Radiomir. Larger cushion cases, 42mm to 47mm. Not for small wrists.
Vacheron Constantin — 67 models. Overseas, Patrimony, Historiques. Less known than Patek or AP but the finishing rivals both.
Jaeger-LeCoultre — 45 models. Reverso, Master Control, Polaris.

What You Are Actually Paying for at This Tier

Most people hear “super clone” and think it just means better finishing. It does, but the real difference is internal. A mid-range piece puts a Miyota 8215 inside a nice-looking case. It runs, it tells time, it holds up for a year or two. At the super clone level, the movement replicates the genuine caliber layout. A Daytona carries a 4130-based chronograph with the correct subdial spacing. A Submariner runs a 3235-based movement with the same power reserve as the retail version.

On the outside, case steel matches the alloy the brand actually uses. Bezels are ceramic, not painted aluminum (painted bezels fade within months — we do not stock them). Crystal is sapphire front and back where applicable. We have had customers put these on a jeweler’s scale next to a genuine piece. The numbers are within two or three grams. That is the tier we operate at.

How to Choose

Think about where you will wear it. A Submariner or Seamaster handles daily abuse without looking out of place at dinner. A Daytona or Speedmaster works if you want a chronograph but do not actually need a dive bezel. The Calatrava and Patrimony are dress-only — thin cases, leather straps, not meant for weekends. Royal Oak and Nautilus split the difference between sport and formal better than anything else in the catalog.

After the model, pick the factory. Each product page names it. If two factories make the same reference, we usually list both. Not sure which to go with — send us a WhatsApp message. We handle enough orders to know which factory version is shipping well this month versus three months ago.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a super clone watch exactly?

A watch where the movement copies the genuine caliber architecture, not just the hand layout. Same plate shape, same gear train configuration, same complications mechanism. The case matches the original alloy and dimensions. Bezels are ceramic, crystal is sapphire. When you hold one, the weight is within a few grams of the retail version. That gap comes from the rotor material and internal decoration, not the external build.

What is a 1:1 replica watch?

A 1:1 replica watch is built to the genuine reference measurement for measurement rather than to a rough likeness. Case diameter, thickness, lug spacing, dial printing and bracelet taper all come off the original specification, and the movement copies the architecture of the genuine caliber instead of being a generic automatic dressed to fit. The ratio is the whole claim: one to one, no scaling, no simplified internals. Buyers also write it as 1 1 without the colon, and it means the same thing.

Are exact replica watches the same as super clones?

In practice yes, and the two phrases describe the same tier. Exact replica watches is the older wording and super clone is what the factories themselves use now, but both point at a build that matches the genuine case alloy, dimensions, ceramic bezel, sapphire crystal and caliber layout. What separates this tier from a cheap copy is measurable: weight within a few grams, a movement whose plate shape matches the original, and finishing that survives a loupe. Anything sold as an exact replica without those is just a copy with better photographs.

How many brands and models do you carry?

Twelve brands, 1,876 models. Rolex is the largest at 446. The count shifts as we add new references and pull discontinued factory versions.

Which factory should I choose?

It depends on the model. Clean Factory for Rolex Submariner, Daytona and GMT-Master. PPF for Patek Nautilus and Aquanaut. ZF for AP Royal Oak and most IWC. VS Factory for Omega. These rankings are not permanent — factories release updated versions and the leader can change in a given quarter. We track this closely because it affects what we recommend. If you are comparing two options for the same reference, message us. We will tell you which factory’s latest batch looks stronger based on what we have seen in QC this week.

Do I get QC photos before shipping?

Yes. Photos, video, timegrapher data. You approve before anything ships. If you do not like the piece, we pull another one.

What is the warranty?

One year on the movement. Mechanical failures get repaired or the movement replaced. We also accept returns within 14 days for manufacturing defects that were not caught in QC. Most warranty claims do not require sending the watch back — we ship the replacement part to you or your local watchmaker directly.

Where do I find the best prices?

The sale page is the first place to check. Prices drop when a factory updates a version and clears out previous-gen stock. We also carry the same reference from different factories at different price points, so there is usually a range. If you have a specific budget, tell us the model and the number — we will tell you what is realistic.

Replica Portugieser Watches

Our iwc portugieser replica collection features 35 models covering the complete Portugieser range — chronograph, 7-day automatic, perpetual calendar, annual calendar and the new Automatic 40. The Portugieser, introduced in 1939, was IWC’s response to two Portugieser merchants requesting wristwatch-sized cases with marine chronometer precision. The result: oversized dials with railway minute tracks and slim bezels that maximize legibility. Every iwc portugieser replica in this collection runs a movement matched to genuine IWC caliber architecture with Pellaton winding, sapphire crystal and decorated finishing. Sizes span from 40mm (Automatic 40) to 44.2mm (Perpetual Calendar and Annual Calendar). Browse by reference below, or see the full Replica IWC collection.

IWC Portugieser Super Clone Movements and Build

Every replica iwc portugieser in this collection uses an automatic caliber matched to genuine specification. The Chronograph IW371491 runs a column-wheel caliber 69355 with vertical clutch for smooth chronograph engagement and 46-hour power reserve. The 7-Day models carry the in-house 52000 series with double barrel and Pellaton ceramic pawl components achieving 168 hours between winds. Perpetual Calendar references use caliber 52615 with 7-day reserve plus moon phase accurate to 577.5 years. Annual Calendar caliber 52850 combines day-date-month indication with the same Pellaton architecture. Cases maintain IWC’s signature Portugieser proportions — ultra-slim bezel, oversized dial area and slender lugs. Finishing alternates between brushed case sides and polished bezel surfaces. All crystals are domed sapphire with dual anti-reflective coating. Straps are hand-stitched alligator with IWC-signed deployant buckle.

How to Choose Your 1:1 IWC Portugieser Clone

Reference and complication define the experience. The IW371491 Chronograph at 41mm is the purest iwc portugieser chronograph replica — the two oversized counters at 12 and 6 are the most recognizable Portugieser element. The IW500705 7-Day at 42.3mm appeals to movement enthusiasts with its visible power reserve and week-long autonomy. The IW503312 Perpetual Calendar at 44.2mm delivers IWC’s most complex dial layout with moon phase and century indication. The IW504402 Annual Calendar offers most of the perpetual calendar’s convenience with a simpler once-per-year correction. The IW358305 Automatic 40 fits modern wrists while preserving the Portugieser DNA. For IWC’s aviation heritage instead, explore the Pilots collection.

IWC Portugieser Replica: Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Portugieser Chronograph and 7-Day?

The Chronograph (IW371491, 41mm) features start-stop-reset timing with two subdials — running seconds at 6 and 30-minute counter at 12. The 7-Day (IW500705, 42.3mm) is a time-only watch with small seconds at 9 and power reserve display at 3, offering a full 168-hour reserve from a single barrel winding. The Chronograph uses caliber 69355 with column wheel. The 7-Day uses caliber 52010 with double barrel Pellaton system. Choose chronograph for timing functionality, 7-Day for maximum autonomy.

What is the Pellaton winding system?

Pellaton is IWC’s proprietary automatic winding mechanism, invented by technical director Albert Pellaton in 1950. Instead of a traditional reverser wheel, it uses two pawl levers that alternate engagement with a ratchet wheel, winding the mainspring efficiently in both rotor directions. Modern Portugieser calibers (52000 series) use ceramic pawl components that virtually eliminate wear. This system enables the 7-day power reserve found in the IW500705 and powers the Perpetual and Annual Calendar movements.

What is the difference between perpetual and annual calendar?

The Perpetual Calendar (IW503312) automatically tracks months with 28, 30 and 31 days plus leap years — no manual correction needed until February 2100. It includes moon phase and 4-digit year display. The Annual Calendar (IW504402) tracks 30 and 31-day months automatically but does not account for February — requiring one manual correction per year on March 1st. The annual calendar is a simpler, thinner mechanism with fewer components. Both are 44.2mm in this collection.

What sizes are available in the Portugieser collection?

The Portugieser range offers four size categories: 40mm (Automatic 40, IW358305), 41mm (Chronograph, IW371491), 42.3mm (7-Day Automatic, IW500705) and 44.2mm (Perpetual Calendar IW503312 and Annual Calendar IW504402). Case thickness ranges from 12.3mm on the Automatic 40 to 14.9mm on the Perpetual Calendar. The 40mm and 41mm references suit most wrists, while the 44.2mm calendar models are designed for larger wrists given their complication height.

What makes the Portugieser dial design distinctive?

Three elements define the Portugieser aesthetic: an ultra-slim bezel that maximizes dial area relative to case size, a railway minute track (chemin de fer) around the outer dial edge with printed minute markers, and leaf-shaped (feuille) or dauphine hands. The chronograph models add oversized subdials at 12 and 6 o’clock that dominate the dial layout. This design language originated in the 1939 reference 325 and has remained consistent across eight decades. The large dial area, originally requested for marine chronometer legibility, now defines the Portugieser identity.
