Design and Aesthetics

The watch has an easily recognizable octagonal case and is fastened by a pair of huge exposed screws on the bezel. The arrangement of the screws on the bezel is a definitive marker of the authenticity of the watch, and it is a super clone’s most wanted detail. Capturing the attention of the market is, of course, the bezel and screws, and the detail and accuracy of the super clone versions’ designs of the screws and bezels are, in most cases, very high.
For example, one thing that is truly the case, is that the surface finishing of the case and bracelet on one of the super clones, which is very similar to the original, is not an exact match to the original surface hand brushing and polishing done by one of the master craftsmen of AP. It is indeed true that the super duplications of the original one is of course not the one which is truly and 100% original and is one who is very close to being original in the hand polishing and beauty of the finishing, Woven like being the one that is original master's tools, are originals being that of true and original details of the original being one to have.

Super clone watches often feature modified Asian and Swiss automatic mechanisms that reproduce the functions and performance of the authentic counterparts. Top-tier clones could even be crafted with visible rotor engravings of the same design as the original AP. These movements, however, do not possess the same class and durability as the original. While the clones may be able to tell the time correctly in the short run, they perform poorly in the long run, and are high-maintenance compared to actual AP models.
Materials and Craftsmanship
