Every replica watch is not perfect, even it is a super clone made by these big factories. Have you purchased any replica watch from Clean, VS or APS? The Daytona from Clean is considered to be the best one, VS makes the best Panerai, APS has a very good finish on AP 15400. But if you have ever purchased one of these watches, you will find none of them are perfect, every watch has flaws. For one or two flaws on a certain model, an apartment or factory will research and produce a better watch part, some dealers will get such type of watch parts to replace the original ones on the watch they got from Clean, BT or VS. What they did is to make the replica to be closer to perfection, certainly the price will be also higher. Is it necessary to do this? I do not think so. For example, some dealers will get a Pepsi GMT-Master Rolex watch from Clean, and replace its sapphire crystal with another sapphire crystal with better transparence from Deep Crystal factory, I do not think you need to do this once you have bought a GMT-Master from Clean, changing one crystal can not achieve an ideal effect, but if you want to replace several watch parts, that will cost a lot of money. Some dealers even said they can source genuine watch parts to install for you, the price is much more expensive.
Today, the replica watch I want to talk is a GMT-Master II with meteorite dial, only one factory in the market makes this watch, C+ makes this watch, but the best one is not made by C+. The movement installed by C+ is Shanghai 3285, after being improved at last time, but it still can not be compared with the Dandong 3285 movement. To get this watch with Dandong 3285 movement, you need to order one Pepsi GMT-Master II from Clean and one meteorite dial from RB factory, then replace the original Clean dial with the RB meteorite dial, then finally you will get one Pepsi GMT with Dandong 3285 movement, but this version will have a higher price than the one directly made by C+.
C+ is a good alternative for watch fans who want a good clone GMT-Master Rolex with much affordable price. This factory has been in the market for a long time, but if you have a trusted source to get a GMT-Master from Clean, I still suggest you buy the Clean version. For this GMT-Master II Pepsi, I have shown pictures from both watch makers, C+ uses the same V3 blue/red ceramic bezel as Clean, the dial is also from the same RB factory, the biggest difference between them lies in the movement, but I think Clean has a better finish on the bracelet. By the way, for this Pepsi GMT-Master, you can also order the V2 edition from Clean, which is a bit cheaper than the V3.
How is ARF compared to Clean for Pepsi?
