For the best replica Tudor watches, I recommend three manufacturers: Z, X, and M+:
Z Factory produces the best replicas of the Tudor Black Bay series.
X Factory, a branch of VS, has created several high-quality Tudor Pelagos replicas.
M+ Factory specialises in Tudor Pelagos FXD replicas made from carbon, which I find particularly attractive.
Recently, Z Factory introduced another Tudor replica entirely crafted from titanium, featuring a 39mm case.
Tudor Replicas vs. Originals
Interestingly, I’ve noticed that Tudor replicas seem to be more popular than the original watches. The exceptional quality of these replicas has undoubtedly contributed to the brand’s rising popularity over the years. This mirrors the impact KW and VS factories had in the past, making Panerai watches more sought after globally.
Details of the New Tudor Replica
This new Tudor replica from Z Factory has the following features:
- Case Diameter: 39mm
- Case Thickness: 11.5mm
- Material: Titanium, with a fully brushed finish on both the case and bracelet
- Dial: Matte finish, aligning with the brushed aesthetic
The watch is priced reasonably and has a versatile size that suits most men.
Flaws in the Replica
While impressive, this replica has a few shortcomings:
- Dial Finish:
The replica lacks the sunray effect present on the genuine watch dial. No matter how you move the watch, the sunray texture is absent. I previously introduced a similar replica featuring a Swiss SW200 movement, which had a better dial finish. Hopefully, Z Factory will address this flaw in future versions. - Movement Issue:
The replica uses an Asia ETA 2824 movement, which includes a date module. However, this Tudor watch does not have a date display on the dial. As a result, when you pull the crown to the first click position and rotate it, you can feel the date wheel moving inside—a feature absent in the original.
It’s unlikely that Z Factory will develop a super clone movement without a date module specifically for this watch. Creating such a movement would be costly, and even if they did, the increased price might deter buyers from choosing this Tudor replica.Overall, despite these flaws, Z Factory’s new Tudor replica is a well-made, accessible option for those who appreciate the brand.
