Noob and VS are still not back, and there are no updates about their return. I am unsure when they will resume operations. Therefore, if you want to order a replica of the Submariner 116610LN or 116610LV, I recommend purchasing from ZF. A few days ago, many dealers updated their WeChat moments, and I noticed discussions about some Submariner watches from a “C” factory. After some in-depth research, I discovered that the “C” factory is Clean factory. Initially, I thought this factory only provided watch parts for other manufacturers, such as the green ceramic bezel used by the ZZF Submariner 116610LV. Now, Clean factory also produces replica Submariner watches of the Submariner and some GMT-Master II models. Here, I have shared some photos of the Submariner and GMT-Master II from Clean factory.
This two-tone blue Submariner is a favorite among many people. Previously, many factories, such as Noob, ARF, VSF, VRF, BP, and EWF, produced this watch. However, if you still want a high-quality version, I believe only Clean factory can offer it now. BP has a blue Submariner, but the quality is not top-notch.
The replica from Clean factory is excellent, made with 904L stainless steel. The case size is accurate, matching the genuine at 40mm in diameter and 13mm thick. The case and middle links of the bracelet are plated with yellow gold. The gold coating is not overly thick but sufficient to prevent scratches and fading. The bezel is Clean factory’s biggest strength. I am confident that this blue Submariner from Clean factory has the most authentic blue ceramic bezel, closely resembling the genuine watch.
The dial is well-crafted, with every detail accurately replicated. The engravings on the inner bezel, “ROLEX” and the serial number, are perfectly done. The Rolex Crown logo at 12 o’clock is also correctly positioned, aligning with the large triangle hour marker at 12. Not every watch has such precise engraving on the inner bezel, so be sure to ask your dealer to select the best one for you.
