Fake Rolex Explorer 40

No, perfect super clone Rolex is not having second thoughts about its near-perfect 36mm Explorer, it stays (and we love it). But within every single watch with a coronet on the dial, the search for perfection is relentless, and this sweet middle-size is proof positive. At 40mm Swiss made replica Rolex still embodies the silky perfection of the Oystersteel case and bracelet and is instantly recognisable. And still, frustratingly perfect even from 10 feet away. £6,450.

Replica Breitling Premier B01 Chronograph
This year proves radiant salmon is a strong contender in the premium game, and luxury super clone Breitling’s new Premier line does what it says on the sweeping B-logoed tin. 42mm with high end fake Breitling’s ergonomic nous means (premier) comfort, especially married up to that soft seven-row bracelet. The COSC-rated Chronometer B01-movement powers what is a studied take on classic sports, and this twin-registered chronograph errs charmingly on the side of glamour. £7,400.

Copy Cartier Santos de Cartier Medium
This might not be in the shops yet, but it’s well within budget and is too good not to include. The best 1:1 super clone Cartier did a solid Cartier move on us and smashed any preconceptions of the already hot-as-hell brand with a slew of new releases that are still titillating watch geek’s senses around the world. But while we do love the Tank Normale and the presence of precious metal Dumonts, this smoky green dial is the real star. The AAA replica Cartier Santos comes in an almost-too-large Large case, but the 35.1mm (wears larger as a square, buddy) slim Medium is right on the money. A deep emerald-like new colour makes it our sports lux Frenchie of choice. Patience, it’s comin’. £6,750.
