Bokey TimeHello everyone, this is Bokey. In this watch review, let’s talk about the classic silver dial kinetic butterfly fly of OMEGA’s Elegant series from ZF factory. Previously, TW factory made this model in the replica market. However, the thickness is slightly thicker than the genuine one, and the sales volume is relatively dismal. Now, ZF factory has developed this kinetic butterfly fly. In terms of thickness, it is more in line with the genuine one than TW factory, and the price is only 100 yuan more expensive than TW. So, I believe many people will choose the kinetic butterfly fly from ZF factory between ZF and TW. Next, let’s talk about the specific workmanship details and some advantages and disadvantages of ZF factory’s butterfly fly in a way with pictures and texts.
Genuine parameters: OMEGA De Ville series 424.13.40.21.02.001 (kinetic butterfly fly), price: 37700.
Overall appearance, the silver concentric dial is matched with Roman numeral hour markers. There is a calendar window at the 3 o’clock position, a power reserve display at the 6 o’clock position, and a small second dial at the 9 o’clock position. The direct feeling that this ZF factory kinetic butterfly fly gives me is that the texture is very excellent. Mainly, the scales and hands are all mirror-polished, so they look very bright. Moreover, its sapphire glass is very transparent. At certain angles, you can’t feel the existence of the mirror at all. Let’s look at it from multiple angles.
There is also a radial pattern effect on the dial. The radial pattern is also relatively delicate. It can be seen when the light is strong, and the radial pattern cannot be seen when the light is darker. This detail is in line with the genuine one.
For dial details, the 12 o’clock scale and the resistance logo are installed in place without any deviation. The printing underneath is done by ink printing, with a strong three-dimensional effect. The thickness of the font is synchronized with the genuine one.

At the 6 o’clock position is a fan-shaped kinetic energy display disk. ZF factory also does grooving treatment, making it look more three-dimensional. In terms of kinetic energy display, it is also a real function. The power needle can be driven to move to the right by manual winding, or it will also increase when worn by wrist movement. For the small second at the 9 o’clock position, the pointer axis also looks relatively empty like the genuine one.
In terms of hands, we can see that there is a line in the middle of the minute hand and hour hand. The center axis is also directly solid. However, the polishing is still a bit lacking. When magnified, there is still a little roughness.
For the case, it is made of 316 stainless steel. The entire case is processed by mirror polishing, and the texture is very bright.
On the side is the time adjustment crown. The crown also has a resistance logo, and the three-dimensional effect is in place.
In terms of thickness, it is the same as the ZF kinetic butterfly fly with gold needles mentioned before, which is 11 millimeters. It is also the only kinetic butterfly fly on the market with the correct thickness!
This watch has a closed back design. The edge of the back cover is polished, and the middle is vertical brushed. The middle uses a delicate brushed process. The internal movement is equipped with a 9015 movement modified to the genuine CAL.2627 movement. Not only is the thickness consistent with the original, but also the function is synchronized with the genuine one.
The factory is equipped with a small cowhide strap. The texture is a bit hard, but it is not that extremely hard feeling. Of course, for dress watches, Bokey still highly recommends replacing it with a crocodile leather strap, which can enhance the texture of the whole watch.
For the buckle, a relatively classic pin buckle is used. The Omega resistance logo is engraved on it, and the imprints that should be on the back are also engraved.
Summary: In conclusion, this kinetic butterfly fly made by ZF factory, a large replica factory, is very good in terms of appearance, thickness, and function.
