Bokey TimeHello everyone, this is bokeytime. Today, I’m going to introduce to you the new Tudor Submariner FXD launched by M+ Factory. There are two models in total, namely: The black Tudor M25717N-0001 and the blue Tudor M25707B/23-0001, apart from the color difference, have the same workmanship. These two models are also among the best Tudor replicas in terms of workmanship and realism in recent years, and they are also the ones I personally recommend. Now, let’s take a look at the workmanship performance of these two M+ factory Leading submersible FXD Grade 5 titanium cases.
First, let’s take a look at the overall appearance. The entire case is made of grade 5 titanium material. Then, many people don’t know what this FXD watch means. In fact, it refers to the connecting rod of this watch strap, which is integrated with this watch. This is because it is more solid, ensuring that its firmness will not fall off during deep-sea diving operations. Then one detail of the entire watch is still quite good.
The rim is made of ceramic and rotates bidirectionally just like the original version. Moreover, the scale on the rim is coated with luminous powder. Another point is that the thickness of the scale is exactly the same as the plate, and the necessary three-dimensional effect has also been achieved. There are no burrs on the pointer either. Including this black and white area, the transition is quite good. Moreover, one of its luminous fillings is extremely smooth. This scale coating can indeed meet the needs of friends who pursue neatness. Including the smoothness of the chamfering and polishing on this edge, it’s really amazing. The LOGO and font printing on the dial are quite three-dimensional.
The luminous effect is very explosive
The case is made of grade 5 titanium with a grey texture. It feels very light when worn. The thickness of the case is also 12.75 millimeters, which is the same as the standard. Take a look at the workmanship of the watch case again. These chamfering and brushing processes do exist. It’s very good, including the back cover crown with a tight bottom. The symbol of this shield. The three-dimensional effect is also quite good. There really are no flaws at all.
The bottom is designed with a navy logo on the back, which is a logo of the French Navy. “Marine” stands for national, which is a symbol of a ship anchor with this number on it. It is also a limited edition model. The internal movement is the Citizen 8N-24 no-date movement, which can ensure that the time adjustment method is consistent with the original, that is, release the crown counterclockwise and pull it one stop to adjust the time directly. Moreover, in terms of quality, Citizen is relatively sturdy and durable.
In addition to the magic strap on the watch, it also comes with a piece of tape at the factory. It feels very soft, like chewing gum, and is very comfortable to wear. The clasp is also installed with the watch, and the material of the button is titanium alloy. The workmanship and texture of this watch strap are quite good. Whether viewed from the front to the back, there are no flaws at all, nor any such imperfections. Therefore, the workmanship of this watch really, really satisfies me.
Overall, the launch of these two leading subtype watches by M+ Factory this time has been very successful. There’s nothing to criticize. Moreover, for this style, there won’t be any upgrades like V1 or V2, nor will there be such a phenomenon of taking advantage of customers. So if you like it, just go for it.
