Exploring The Amusing World of Blaken & Phantom Reps

[n30m]

Happy New Year.


I got to poking around on the Blaken Rep scene, thought I'd share with you the good (lol), the bad, the ugly.

I'll start with in my opinion the worst offender, the IPK orange sub:

DR Factory Purple Daytona

Powder Blue sub anyone, IPK?

Permit - not sure the factory

My personal fav, Peppa Pig, I actually may order this watch, I think it's fun. Base is an N Explorer 2

I also think this weird GR Harry Potter On the Moon is pretty cool, these are running SA3135s:

There are two versions of this watch, DR is the first one, it's a much more navey blue dial, this GR is close to the "gen" dial:

DR and 1.5/5G both have green dials, the DR is quite a bit darker from the pics and review vids I've seen:

5G and IPK both have moon dials also, sans the cool harry potter:

No idea who makes it, but this is also fun:

Dytonas from IPK, I believe with 7750:

So there you go, I was wasting new years day exploring around the weird and wonderful world of blaken and phantom reps, and thought I'd share some pictures with y'all.

You can fake anything. Why not have fun with it.

The stars look like dust particles.

I haven't seen anything better than what Rolex came up with yet.

It looks really nice in a different light:

There is also a red version:

Here is a video

The panda dial sub looks like the case and bracelet is made of ceramic. I'd buy a fully ceramic sub!

I also think this weird GR Harry Potter On the Moon is pretty cool, these are running SA3135s:

Lol, it's not Harry Potter on the moon it's Le Petit Prince by St Exupéry

This is a really well researched post. Thanks!

After re-reading, I am torn between the purple submariner and Pippa Pig.

The "Purple Submariner" has a GMT Master II dial and no GMT hand. That should help you with your decision... lol

Do you have a link to the Peppa Pig?

My best guess is they're trying to rep a Black Venom, although I've never seen a purple BV sub, and I looked. It's an ARF apparently.

They repped another Black Venom, but they mislabeled it Blaken who didn't do this watch.

Seeing as this thread did alright, I'll add a couple more I found:

This is also a BV not a Blaken (I believe + MAD are the main rolex modders?)



Not my thing, but I think quality looks pretty high:

No, I found quite a lot of review videos from the last few months, but I've been unable to find any dealers listing it. I've emailed Zach over at Dr. Time who I use to ask if he knows anything about it, I'll report back.

From what I have been told by a friend who can source stuff directly in China, pre raid this was modded noob 4130 and later modded from Fake Noob. I was gonna pull the trigger as I mainly wanted the dial, but I wanted the watch to be matte finish and also I don't like the contrast of the ceramic bezel as I like my watch to be very similar as the one done by MAD Paris. Tmmy original option was to get the Blaken by IPKF with the funny colour hands where I even bought extra Noob hands ready for the project but the TD (Your Watch) who I paid for the Blaken couldn't get the watch and luckily enough I got my refund before their mess started with some members unfortunately lost money.

I ended up doing the project by getting a stock Noob daytona with a sports bezel, got the watch coated and drew the dial on Illustrator myself. Bought some spare coronets for the dial from Raffles and painted the coronet and the hands with matte model paint won't a screw driver.

One thing to note the MAD Paris subdial at 3 was wrong as it was missing a 1 minute marker per every 5 minute intervals

You have been warned and given everything you need to succeed on the forum. I won't have much sympathy if you come back with more silly low effort questions.
