Bokey TimeHello everyone, this is Bokey Watch Industry. Today’s watch review is about the Tourbillon wristwatch from the BBR Factory Vacheron Constantin Overseas Series 6000V, with the official model number: 6000V/110A-B544. The brand-new Vacheron Constantin Overseas Tourbillon can be regarded as the crowning glory of this series, featuring the distinctive design of the series and the blessing of the tourbillon complication. It achieves a harmonious beauty between elegance and casualness, once again demonstrating the charm of watchmaking. Now, let’s take a look at the specific craftsmanship details of the BBR Factory Overseas 6000V with a rubber strap.
Is the BBR factory’s Vacheron Constantin Overseas 6000v tourbillon worth buying?
First, take a caliper to measure the size of this watch. According to the actual measurement by Bokey, the diameter of the watch is 42.5 millimeters and the thickness is 11.7 millimeters. In terms of thickness, it is 1.4 millimeters thicker than the genuine product.
The BBR factory’s Overseas 6000V tourbillon watch features a dark blue dial. In terms of dial color adjustment, the BBR factory is quite good. This blue dial is a classic blue in the front light angle, and it is a darker blue in the backlight angle. Generally speaking, the color difference is relatively small. Moreover, the texture processing on the dial is also relatively delicate, and the sunburst satin brushed effect can be seen.
The mirror material is anti-glare sapphire glass, and overall it is very transparent. The highly recognizable six-spoke semi-Maltese cross-shaped three-dimensional bezel of the Overseas series is polished with a mirror finish, looking full of luster and warmth, which greatly improves the refinement of the watch. Moreover, the installation direction of the BBR factory is the same as that of the original, achieving impartiality.
Looking at the details, the hands use a simple hour and minute double-arrow display. The central axis is basically the same as the original. There is no second hand or calendar window. All the scales on the dial are designed with irregular rectangular three-dimensional hour markers and filled with sufficient luminous material. The cross logo of Vacheron Constantin below the 12 o’clock position is very three-dimensional, and the English font is clear and powerful. The inner scale corresponds synchronously with the bar scale. The workmanship of the bar scale is also quite good. I believe that watch friends can see from the pictures that the bar after being processed by the mirror polishing process. In terms of overall texture, the nail is relatively comfortable and the brightness is sufficient.
At the 6 o’clock position is the three-dimensional tourbillon logo of Vacheron Constantin’s Maltese cross. When looking at the watch, you can see the eye-catching flywheel at a glance! The crossbars of the flywheel frame are all manually polished and chamfered, truly reflecting the craftsmanship standard of watchmakers. The tourbillon of the BBR factory can be said to be the ceiling among replica watches. For this tourbillon frame of the Overseas 6000v, it is directly made to be in line with the original version. The general shape of the tourbillon has been restored to more than 80%. However, there is indeed a very big difference in the polishing of the frame. If the frame of the tourbillon can be finely polished again, then the effect can be even better. However, fine polishing requires double the manpower and material resources. When it comes to replicas, we still need to maintain a certain degree of tolerance. In addition, the tourbillon still uses a design with a hairspring stud, which is also not in line with the original version.
The case is made of 316L stainless steel. The side is polished with a large area. And the factory also thoughtfully pastes a protective film to avoid scratches during transportation.
The crown is engraved with the Vacheron Constantin Maltese LOGO pattern. It is polished and has anti-slip textures around it to facilitate operating the watch and prevent slipping.
Regarding the see-through back, it depends on personal opinion. Those who know watches can definitely see the difference. Those who don’t know can only see a general idea. The back structure of the BBR is the same in layout. The engraving is remarkable. However, compared to the original version, the biggest flaw is that this movement is manually wound. The genuine product uses the 2160 ultra-thin automatic winding movement. However, the BBR factory is also relatively clever. Like the original version, it has made an automatic rotor, but this golden automatic rotor is fixed in one position and cannot move. In addition, there is another EUR factory on the market that makes this model. The only disadvantage of its product is that it is thick. The thickness is 7 millimeters thicker than the genuine product. So it is not recommended. After all, we can’t let watch friends wear a watch like a “hamburger”, right?
The BBR factory, like the genuine product, adopts a quick-release strap design. Currently, there are steel straps and rubber straps available for shipment. Compared to the steel strap, Bokey still recommends the rubber strap. After all, it is difficult to find any differences with the rubber strap. And the polishing of the steel strap is definitely not as smooth as the genuine product.
Summary: The BBR factory’s Vacheron Constantin Overseas 6000v tourbillon replica watch is still very good. Generally speaking, there are no major problems. Friends who like this style can also buy it with confidence! Of course, for tourbillon watches, if you pursue perfect restoration, then Bokey still has to say, just wear it. If you want to get a watch worth millions of dollars for a few thousand yuan, that is not realistic. In reality, only scammers will tell you that tourbillons are indistinguishable between true and false! Keep a correct attitude. A genuine watch does not make us feel superior! In fact, as long as the quality of the watch is good, it is comfortable to wear, and you like the style, there is every reason to buy it. Love watches, like watches, wear watches. That’s all. I also hope that everyone can get a watch that satisfies them.
