AF Cartier Santos vs BVF, GF

[martir]

Finally I'm joined the BVF's team!!

Honestly floating M is not visible from this angle.
Why did you choose bvf over af?

I choose to risk but for me I haven't the floating R on the dial, and on wrist the Cartier brand it's really smaller to the eye (nobody will see it).

Nowadays really big issue is rotated dial... floating m is not anymore...

Do you guys know if this (35 mm with a gray dial from AF) is a fantasy piece? I like the watch but could not find an auth watch with this gray dial (only green and blue) in 35 mm. Thanks.

Curious about this as well.

The big issue is the big gap on the bracelet... very terrible

I do think its a fantasy piece, propably modeled because the 35mm white and blue versions are selling nicely with customers.
there are quite a few gen grey dial pieces (like the galbee SIHH limited edition, the wssa0037 with the aldc bezel or f.e. the santos dual time just to name a few) but none resembles the watch jtime is selling. hence my conclusion of a fantasy piece

Beautiful watch, bracelet is a Little sharp at some inner edges, I will try to fix that with Scotch Brite. If this is solved, definately NWBIG.

After 10days of use I can confirm that this watch is really well done, only the gap on the bracelet needs a little upgrade but remains absolutely a perfect clone!!

Thanks for the info!

Dopo 10 giorni di utilizzo posso confermare che questo orologio è davvero ben fatto, solo lo spazio sul cinturino avrebbe bisogno di un piccolo aggiornamento, ma rimane assolutamente un clone perfetto!!

Perchè dici aggiornamento del cinturino cos'ha che non va il BVF?

Hi Dighito, I don't know if it's only on BVF but between each links there is a little gap that are not present on the gen.

Hi guys,

I have now also decided to go for a BVF Cartier Santos. I think it's a fantastic replica, but when I looked closely at my QC photos I noticed that the print on the dial is a bit overflowing at the marker at 8.

This is of course a replica and not a Gen. I am therefore wondering whether I should accept or reject the watch. Your opinion would help me. And I hope it's the correct thread to ask this.

It's hard to see the overflow at 30X (which your pic is ) and shouldn't be a problem when in hand or on the wrist. I have the large BVF Santos and it's a beautiful watch.

 

[Nullinger]

Yes, that's what I also have in mind. You have to zoom to the flaw. And it's more a small watch in real life.

 

[emameme]

I can confirm, some defects on Dial are impossible to see during a normal use. Go with this one

Anyone here who bought the green dial af?

how does the bracelet feel? that's my biggest concern with buying reps with SS bracelets, they never seem to feel like the original

Is this an AF? Nice photo
