ZZF V3 Submariners up on Jtime
- Thread starter Fervid
- Start date
I thought the same but I don’t own any v2 or v2s, but saw some old thread from v2s shows the same dull under low light but not seeing any post from v3, that’s why I was curious, I bought it from Li and got the same ZZF label with AR bracelet label, not sure if this is v3 but under low light it’s very dull, other than that it’s a great rep
Newsflash no metal glows without light. All brightness from a metal is a light reflection. No light no reflection. Take a gold ring out of direct light and see how bright it isunder light, it looks great

Thanks

Clean factory seems to be the new name for ZZF, the watches appears to be the same (expensive-but-mid-range reps with crown guards that scream fake from across the room). There are better Submariners to buy if you want 'the best sub' though your non-date options are more limited.
What would you suggest ? I think the rehaut looks better on the CF as the serial number digits are actually between the indices as opposed to the ZZF

You should go with what you think looks better.
There is strong opinions for and against the top few certain subs. All I know is They all have flaws, and the level they are at they are small ones and to be able to see them across the room is nonsense.
One isn’t appreciably better than the other really....For one reps good point there is a bad. It comes down to what satisfies you, which bits are more important.

Could you let me know what movement are in them and compare the crown screwing in/out and the feel of the movement winding up.
Thanks

should definately get the movement serviced. Feels so silky smooth afterwards
I don't know where to go to get it serviced most place I've phones say they won't touch a rep

If you are located in EU, check out Interaktiv on the forum. He can get your movement serviced.
Hi guys
I've spent quite some time reading about various Sub replicas and while I understand that there are pros and cons to each factory, in case of zzf I'm wondering, it would seem that the difference between the VR3130 V3 and the A2836 V3 versions is the movement which in case of the former to some extent emulates the original Rolex movement and this is reflected on the price as well. A few days ago it was mentioned here that the movement in the A2836 is louder but my main question is that as far as one can tell less than half a year upon its release, to what extent is the VR3130 V3 reliable? I know reliability is hit and miss with reps yet I'm somewhat leaning towards the A2836 for the movement is a workhorse while not sure about the VR3130 which uses an overly modified movement emulating the real thing...

With the 2836 movement you compromise on the case shape. The crown sits lower in the case making the crown guards more closed off (making the watch look fake - to me and anyone who knows better). A rep with a 3135 will have correct crown height.. but on this watch (Clean/ZZF) you still get a wrong case shape and (fake looking) crown guards.
