Differences Between the 4 Versions

Over the years, the market for replica watches has evolved, offering different levels of quality and craftsmanship.

The four main versions — Asia AAA, Swiss Eta, Clone, and Super Clone — differ in materials, movements, and finishing accuracy.

Below is a technical overview to help you better understand their key differences.

Asia AAA

A good-quality entry-level version, ideal for those looking for an affordable yet decent model.
These watches should not be confused with low-quality imitations commonly found in local markets or summer tourist spots.
They feature an Asia 2813 automatic movement, 316L stainless steel case, and scratch-resistant mineral glass.
Overall, they offer a balanced ratio between aesthetics and price, suitable for first-time buyers.

⚙️ Swiss Eta

Once considered top-tier models in the Asian market, they are now less common due to the rise of more advanced versions.
However, they remain high-quality pieces compared to the standard category.
Their main characteristics include:

  • Swiss Eta movement – more reliable and precise

  • Sapphire crystal glass – improved scratch resistance

  • Enhanced case and dial finishing

Production has become inconsistent, and today these models are harder to find, typically available only in certain classics such as the Daytona Paul Newman.

⚙️ Clone

Over the last few years, Clone versions have progressively replaced Swiss Eta models thanks to improved build quality and materials.
Although slightly more expensive, they stand out for:

  • 904L stainless steel, the same type used in high-end original models

  • Sapphire crystal with superior clarity

  • Fine finishing on case, bezel, and bracelet

Experts consider Clone models to be highly faithful reproductions in terms of design, proportions, and tactile feel, using new-generation cloned automatic movements that ensure smooth operation.

Super Clone

The Super Clone represents the highest level of craftsmanship and precision, aimed at collectors and enthusiasts seeking excellence.
Each watch is made of 904L stainless steel, with advanced automatic movements engineered to reproduce the authentic smoothness of original mechanisms.

During expert evaluations, several aspects are carefully analyzed:

  • Dial proportions and hand alignment

  • Case and bezel finishing

  • Bracelet details and engraving accuracy

  • Weight and wrist feel

The visual and tactile experience of a Super Clone is nearly indistinguishable from the original, making it the finest option for those who value perfection.

Conclusion

Understanding the differences between these four versions allows buyers to make more informed decisions based on technical features and value for money.

Each category has its own characteristics and audience, and knowing them helps ensure a safe and conscious purchase.
