Clean Factory - Fake or Real?

[WatchGoblin]

Hi Guys, i have ordered a clean factory submariner 126610LV, tracking looks like it should be with me this week! Its not from a TD from this site but I have ordered from him before and been very happy with what I received. Just interested to know from seeing alot of fake cleans etc going around wether mine looks a real clean or not to the much more experienced folk in here! Hope thats okay. Will post pics once recieved. Cheers

New to this so still figuring out how to use it - apologies! Hopefully you can see those pictures? Let me know what you all think thanks

Since you are new here, let me be the bearer of bad news: we are not allowed to post QC pictures here, for obvious reasons. Most likely a moderator will remove them.
But yes, that looks like a genuine fake Starbugs from C Factory to my untrained eyes. Generally speaking, there is no reason to buy from a source other than a TD, also for obvious reasons.

They are not QC pictures, I have the watch it was delivered today so took them today thanks for replying though, good to know it looks like real Clean.

Nice looking watch. I got a similar one earlier this year. After adjusting the bracelet, it is a very comfortable wearing watch.

Can't believe people pay 10 - 20 k for a real Rolex, if China can make one this nice for a few hundred.

Mate if you buy a watch from a TD and then TD says it’s from Clean, then it’s not gonna be fake. Lol.

If Reddit’s definition of what a clean sub should look like doesn’t align with what the factory definition is, then it doesn’t make it make.

Factories can swap and change part suppliers, serial numbers etc etc. Doesn’t make it fake.

Nice watch mate and I completely agree! Although it may not be perfect and the quality may not be the same but the price difference is laughable. On the wrist to everyone who is not a luxury watch expert with a magnifying glass, they are amazing. And you dont have to worry so much about wearing them and getting them scuffed etc

Can anyone help me know this this is real or fake clean factory 3130 ?

Are you buying this from a TD? (Assume not if you're having to ask this question).

Maybe it's just me...but shouldn't the peace sign the monkey is making be closer to the black circle?

Sad day when you have to QC stickers!

Unfortunately the only information I've found so far is that on the real clean the hat flaps are very close to the arm and of the fake there is a large space leave lots of white?? The thing is idk if in my picture that is considered close or far.

Save yourself a headache and order from a Trusted Dealer.

So, lemme get this straight...

The distance of a monkey's peace sign to the outer ring of a 3 Cents sticker is how watches are legit checked in 2023?

i think we need to bring out the lines alignment tool to overlay just to be sure!

So I've heard...

The fake clean factory can knock out a semi convincing copy but they haven't sussed the ability to print onto a sticker.

But yes, in all seriousness just order from a TD. That way you will get a watch with a perfectly aligned monkey sticker

I know there was some 'left over stock' after raids and mixing of old/new factory stuff.

But the alignment of a sticker to check? Fark. I must've missed that somewhere along the line.

The mind boggles!
