1:1 Replica Richard Mille RM35-02 -Comparison with the genuine version review

Below, the left side shows the genuine watch and the right side shows the replica. The factory purchased the genuine model for precise 1:1 replication. In terms of color, there is virtually no difference, and the manufacturer guarantees that exterior screws and other parts are interchangeable with the original.

Regarding the movement, it was developed from scratch. In addition to having the same appearance as the original, the functionality and components reach over 95% similarity. The next two photos clearly show the detailed finishing of the movement.

The curved case shape is the most difficult part to manufacture because the case, crystal, and mid-frame must share the exact curvature, while also maintaining high water-resistance performance. The red carbon-fiber textures on the sides closely match the authentic version.

The case and crown are made using high-tech TPT (Quartz Fiber) material, composed of silica fiber layers no thicker than 45 microns, woven with a special automated control system and customized resin fibers. The fibers are layered at 45-degree angles, then heated in a three-stage high-temperature furnace to 120°C before being sent to ProArt for forming. The manufacturing process is exactly the same as the original.

The case shape and curvature are extremely accurate, with natural and well-defined carbon-fiber texture layers. The overall weight is very close to the genuine watch, making it lightweight and comfortable on the wrist. The strap matches the authentic model perfectly in shape, flexibility, touch, and hole positioning, and can be fully interchanged. The clasp has nearly identical texture and engraving clarity, with excellent closing resistance and precision.

Overall, Richard Mille watches are extremely expensive, whereas this high-end replica costs less than USD $1000 while achieving such a high degree of resemblance. I believe it is a very worthwhile high-end replica to purchase.
