Review of BV Factory Chanel J12 Series H5700/H5697 Mechanical See-Through Replica Watches – 38mm Unisex Design
Now, let’s take the BV Factory Chanel H5697 black ceramic model as an example to discuss. The overall design features a black dial, with Arabic numeral hour markers, and the hour and minute hands are of the same width. A date display window is set between the 4 o’clock and 5 o’clock positions, while the words “J12” and “AUTOMATIC” are marked at the 6 o’clock position. All the quintessential design elements of Chanel are incorporated into this watch.
The watch has a diameter of 38mm, a size that can be described as unisex. Additionally, the bezel design has been slightly modified to make the dial appear wider and achieve visual balance; the typography of the numbers and hour markers on the bezel has also been redesigned. The number of grooves on the bezel edge has been increased from the original 30 to 40, enhancing the sense of refinement.
The numerical scales on the ceramic bezel have all been redesigned, with their sizes perfectly matching those of the authentic model. The timing scales on the inner bezel are more refined and feature a Superluminova luminous coating.
This new BV Factory J12 watch features an integrated precision ceramic case. Although the case thickness is slightly increased compared to the previous model, the lines remain smooth without a heavy feel.
The crown on the other side has also been reduced in diameter by one-third compared to the old model and is inlaid with a black cabochon precision ceramic, demonstrating meticulous craftsmanship in every detail.
The solid case back has been transformed into a see-through design. Through the sapphire glass at the bottom, it can be seen that the BV factory uses a 9015 movement modified into Chanel’s exclusive CALIBER 12.1 automatic winding mechanical movement. The overall appearance of the movement can reach about 95% of the authentic model, and the position of the balance wheel is also consistent with the genuine product. Even if the watch is taken off and shown to a novice, they won’t be able to tell the difference.
The strap is also forged from precision ceramic. The length of the ceramic strap, the shape effect of the beads, the spacing, and the bottom sealant are all consistent with the authentic model, with the detailed craftsmanship perfectly close to the genuine product.
Finally, it should be noted that the quality of the folding clasp on this J12 watch made by BV is excellent. It perfectly matches the original in both function and appearance, and the folding feel is very elastic and smooth!
For reference of the on-wrist photos, Boji’s wrist circumference is 15.5CM, and the watch fits moderately.
Summary: The highlights of this new BV+ Factory Chanel J12 watch lie in its retention of the original highly recognizable design, while achieving perfection in details and upgrading the movement to a brand-new level. Chanel has demonstrated its strength in the high-end watchmaking industry and gained widespread affection. BV+ Factory’s ingenious craftsmanship creates your exclusive DNA high-end products – welcome to appreciate!
