PPF factory Patek Philippe 5712/1R rose gold 240 integrated movement upgraded to true dynamic display version
Hello everyone, I am CH Watch Industry, I am keen on popularizing watch knowledge, comparing true and false, disassembling and evaluating, and being your navigator on the road of playing with watches, helping you not to get lost in playing with watches. Today we are going to discuss the new Patek Philippe 5712 rose gold steel band version launched by PPF Factory. This is also the second time that PPF Factory has launched a rose gold version after the stainless steel version. The official model is 5712/1R-001, the size is 40mm, according to the replica market, it is actually a symbolic statement, and it also breaks through the full function of PP5712 rose gold. The stainless steel version launched by PPF Factory PP this time is 100% restored to all functions, and the products of other factories have not reached the restoration function.
Function is the most important part of a complicated watch, not to mention that it is the main premise of a replica watch. Before PPF Patek Philippe released this rose gold watch, the manufacturer we could choose on the market was GR. However, GR also has a problem that the 48-hour battery life at 10 to 11 o’clock on the dial cannot be displayed, it is just a decoration. Only the PPF 5712 stainless steel version can fully display the battery life, and the comparison between the two is relatively contradictory.
The GR factory rose gold version has a defect in energy storage power, and the only manufacturer with a battery life display, PPF factory, has not yet released a rose gold version. However, after the launch of the PP replica watch, the market has ushered in a different climax, which is equivalent to directly abandoning the GR factory and choosing the PPF factory replica watch. No matter what style, stainless steel or rose gold can realize the use of application functions. That’s all we know about the specific market situation of PP replica 5712. Now let’s take a look at how the details of this PPF factory 5712 rose gold version are handled.
The original genuine product is made of 100% 18K rose gold, while the PPF factory uses 904L stainless steel material and then uses PVD electroplating technology to produce rose gold, commonly known as electroplated gold. Now the PVD electroplating process can restore the color of the genuine product to about 95%: First of all, it should be clear that electroplated gold is electroplated gold, and it is impossible to restore 18K gold 100%. If you can’t accept this, there are two choices. First: don’t choose to buy, and second: choose 18K gold-plated modification and upgrade.
In terms of functions, 10 o’clock to 11 o’clock is the 48-hour endurance power display, 6 o’clock to 8 o’clock is the month and moon phase display, and 4 o’clock to 5 o’clock is the second hand display. These 4 functions are 100% restored.
In fact, according to the top version, the original PPF factory 5712 dial does not meet the standard compared to the original authentic one. If it is close to the original 98%, it can only be achieved through modification and upgrading. Replace the substitute dial, whether it is the sharpness of the scale bar or the roughness of the function display, it will become more rounded and smooth. Just like the color of the moon and the stars in the moon phase will be more in line with the version. The dots on the edge of the dial will be divided into large and small dots in different areas.
The polishing process of the exterior is quite meticulous, and it can basically restore the details of the authentic exterior. The standard case of the Nautilus is customized to restore the thickness of the authentic product, which is about 8.52MM. The bezel is a cut surface design, and the glossiness of each side is formed by polishing, so the surface is brushed and the side of the bezel is polished. The standard blue crystal high-transparency glass is a normal configuration, and it is not a very high-end accessory.
Then there is the entire black and gray gradient dial. This dial is more in line with the GR factory. It is a gray dial with a black edge. In this regard, PPF factory Patek Philippe did a good job. The rounded corner polishing process of the scale bars compared to the authentic ones did not meet the expectations of the original. In my personal opinion, this is the case. The original version is a bit rounder. This defect will give everyone a cost-saving modification plan to improve the simulation of the entire watch.
PPF factory PP is equipped with super integrated movement Cal240PS, this movement has a total of 265 parts, the flat hairspring and rotor structure are in line with the movement layout of the genuine product. After all, the movement can be seen through the back cover, and choosing an integrated movement will be more realistic, while GR factory uses a customized version of the movement, so the endurance power cannot be displayed.
Therefore, for the authentic high-end replica watches, I personally recommend to do a modification and upgrade, replace the entire dial with a substitute dial, which will be more cost-effective. At the same time, the appearance and the inside of the dial will not appear fake at first glance. PP replicas are also a cost issue for manufacturers. If the manufacturer replaces the substitute dial, watch friends may not necessarily buy it. After all, the cost of production has increased, and the selling price will also be high.PPF factory Patek Philippe.
