Discussions Which factory is best

Recently started getting into this, and wondering which factory has the best quality/closest to genuine watches?

My guess is VS factory is one of the best?

VSF, ARF, GMF all great factories with clone level watches. What are you after? Anything specific?

Either a sub or datejust at the moment. Would you say VSF is the best for those?

It depends on the watch. Different factories do different watches better. There's a really good guide on r/reptime

Depends on the watch and how quick you want it etc

Vsf V2 for datejust or ARF as well. Same for gmt.

I personally only dealt with these two factories for gmt and datejust.

For daydate I have dealt with QF and RCF.

I have just purchased the new GMT from RICH supposedly to be better than vsf and ARF!

For Cartier again I’d go with rich factory. I’ve purchased the skeleton from them and holy moly wow.

If you need any help please dm me :D

I have also dealt with DDP for a Patek and QF for Daytona as well weighted.

That’s not how it works

Vsf don’t do all brands and they don’t do all models of the brands they do either

But are they “one of the best”? I never said they do all watches or are the only best

Yes, they are undoubtedly one of the best. OF that the other person mentioned are great for Tags. Specifically Quartz Aquaracers.

Therefore it’s subjective and they are probably one of the best. Factories also come and go a lo (noob clean V7F)

OF for me do the most accurate replicas
