Review of V9 Factory IWC Aquatimer IW376801 Replica Watch

The watch we are sharing today is from the V9 factory, a rather distinctive manufacturer. All the watches they produce are equipped with a chip that can be used to identify if it’s from the V9 factory, which is also a counterfeit-proof feature of V9 factory replicas. Similarly, this watch today is no exception. This IWC Aquatimer also has it. With a 44mm size, it is considered a large-sized watch. The dial and performance are the selling points of the V9 factory.

V9 Factory IWC Material Information Overview

Dial: The dial is made of silver-plated material, similar to an electroplating process, and it shows a soft metallic luster from different angles.

Case and bezel: Both are made of stainless steel. The brushing and polishing by V9 factory can demonstrate their craftsmanship.

The clasp: The clasp is also made of stainless steel. The depth of the engraved characters on it is uniform, and the thickness of the characters is also restored. The fineness of the engraving is also a point to test the quality of a replica watch.

The watch crystal is a double-sided anti-reflective convex sapphire crystal glass with a blue coating on the front. Even when viewed from the side, the details inside can still be clearly seen.

Luminous coating: The edges of the stick-shaped hour markers are smooth. The V9 factory also made a two-color luminous coating. The hour and minute hands have blue luminous coating, and the triangular marking of the diving chronograph has green luminous coating. However, the luminous performance is not as long-lasting as the original version.

Wearing experience of rubber watch straps

The IWC Aquatimer IW376801 from the V9 factory is equipped with a rubber strap. The rubber material has a moderate softness and does not stick to the wrist like low-end silicone straps. The rubber strap also fits the wrist well and is very suitable for sports wear, being quite secure. The overall weight of the watch is not particularly heavy, and because it is equipped with a rubber strap, it can be worn for a long time. In winter, the rubber strap may become a bit hard due to the low temperature, but it will regain its softness as the body temperature rises.

How is the water resistance of the V9 factory IWC?

Due to the differences in assembly precision and the material of the sealing gasket, the actual water resistance of the replica watch does not reach the 300 meters of the original version. After testing, it has a water resistance of about 100 meters, which is sufficient for activities such as diving and swimming. The water resistance can be considered good, but the depth of water resistance and actual durability still depend on the sealing structure and daily maintenance habits. It is necessary to regularly check whether the screw-down crown is tightened.

Function Test of IWC Replica Watches

The movement is equipped with a cloned Cal.79320 automatic mechanical movement. The base movement is the 7750 movement, so all functions are restored. As a multi-functional chronograph movement, the 7750 has a relatively complex structure and requires correct use to extend its lifespan.

Day and date display: The 3 o’clock window shows the day and date, with the font centered. The day display is abbreviated and there is no lag when switching. In the first position of the crown, turn clockwise to adjust the date and counterclockwise to adjust the day.

Chronograph function: The operation logic is the same as most watches. During the actual test, it can be seen that the chronograph second hand does not shake, and the function is restored. It is worth considering.
