Explorer I -124270 Gen & Clean Comprehensive Comparison

Hello, I’m Tonny, I’m back, with the VSF factory also joined the Oyster Perpetual series of camp, CLean factory is finally unable to hold back, also began to expand their own product line,
recently released 36mm Oyster Perpetual, Explorer I and the Air King, although these series is not particularly popular, but for the players interested in this is definitely a good news.
After all, with the addition of the top factories, there will be more competition between the factories in these collections, and with competition comes better pieces,
more choices for these collections, and more choices for everyone. If we stayed the same, we would have no choice in many models.
All right, let’s end this irrelevant nonsense and get on with the job.
Front Dial View
The black dial and steel case are always the first choice for replicas,Putting down the magnifying glass, it is hard to see any difference.
Stick View
The chamfers on the edges of sticks are very rounded, and the corner details of Arabic numerals are also not in any way problematic. Clean factory really does have a great attention to detail.
Oil font view
The regularity and three-dimensionality are perfect. When we compare the font at 12 o’clock, it is easy to see that Clean’s oil-printed fonts are really full, especially the “ROLEX” font.
Luminous Filled View
The granularity of Luminous is noticeable and the fill height is fine, These are the usual detailing that should be.
Middle Axis ViewThe Middle Axis is already very close to Gen,It is the best shape the factory can make today, It would be perfect if the cut-outs were a little smaller.
Crown side view
When in winding position after the crown has been unscrewed (Fig. 2), The shank shaft has the same length and threads as Gen. The sharp corners of the teeth are very rounded and more pronounced than even the Gen.
Backcase view
The teeth of the bottom cover are particularly rounded, all appearing to be a certain width, and the brushed lines in various areas are clear.
Strap detail view
Without going into too much detail about the strap, it’s worth noting that the engraving on the Clean does have that Gen flavor to it.
rior to this, other factories were using wrong cases, so the lugs were a bit wider than Gen’s, including the wider strap. Instead of following the example of other factories to save time and effort,
Clean has adopted 1 to 1 case and bracelet. The width of the first section of the bracelet is measured to be 18.6mm, and with a slight gap, the lug spacing is almost 19mm, which is the same as that of the Gen.
Well, today’s post is here, thank you guys for watching. If there are any mistakes, please correct me. If there is anything else I overlooked, you can put it up, and I will try my best to complete it. Welcome to comment and exchange!
I will continue to bring you more detailed comparisons between replica watches and GEN’s. And it is also for you to choose the favorite models conveniently.

There is no perfect replica, only the one you prefer.
