I am very excited today because I found a new watch, our life in Guangzhou will be back to normal soon, there was an outbreak of COVID-19 here half a month ago and it is now under control, luckily all the watch factories have accepted orders during this time and the shipments are now becoming normal.
The new watch, I’m going to talk about is the GMT-Master II that copy Rolex just released in 2022. the GMT-Master II is a completely new face with a black and green ceramic bezel, we also call the GMT-Master watch Sprite. This watch is a left-handed model, well you can wear it on your left hand or right hand, it doesn’t matter, it’s the first time I’ve seen a left-handed Rolex watch.
The replica GMT-Master Sprite is made by the V9 factory, not the same V9 factory I mentioned before, the new V9 factory now has a new owner. The replica is made from genuine 904L stainless steel and the two main features of the watch are its black/green ceramic bezel insert and the crown on the left. The case has a diameter of 40 mm and is measured at 12 mm thick. On the black dial, the GMT hand in the center is green, exactly the same as the green ceramic on the bezel. There is a small crown marker between “SWISS” and “MADE” at 6 o’clock.
This GMT-Master replica Sprite model from the V9 factory is a good try, it’s okay quality and affordable, V9 has its price advantage compared to those GMT-Master replicas made by Noob or Clean. But the problem is that a factory-like V9 can’t make the best quality replica, which means that every detail of this replica is not top-notch, so that’s why I always suggest you buy replicas from big factories, even if they are more expensive.
The good news is that the Clean factory will launch this GMT-Master II Sprite soon, probably on May 10. Yes, it’s really exciting, we know that the ceramic bezel of GMT-Master II is a big advantage for the Clean factory and they will use the 3186 movements in this GMT watch. And the strap will be available in both Oyster and Jubilee.
