Clean Factory / C Factory Rolex Yacht-Master M226627-0001 Replica Watch Introduction
In June 2024, Clean Factory purchased the Rolex Yacht-Master 226627 and began developing a 1:1 replica, a process that took nearly a year. This is the first time C Factory has replicated a watch using titanium. The watch case is made from Grade 5 titanium alloy—a special material widely used in aerospace and medical fields.
One of the biggest challenges in making this watch was matching the exact weight of the original. The case head of both the replica and the genuine model weighs exactly 57g, with no discrepancy. The genuine bracelet weighs 49g, while Clean’s replica weighs 52g due to protective film on the product. Once removed, the difference is only about 2g–3g, which is virtually unnoticeable when worn on the wrist. The brushing process on the case and bracelet is nearly identical to the original.
In terms of external craftsmanship—such as the ceramic bezel, bracelet, dial, and hands—these pose no difficulty for Clean Factory. However, Clean Factory’s products are slightly more expensive. Below, we’ve included comparison images showing the weight difference between the replica and the authentic watch.
