The latest release by C Factory, the 126505 model with the 4131 movement, has arrived with an impressive accuracy in its design, showcasing an impeccable comparison to the authentic pieces. Known for their dedication to detail, C Factory has once again proven their ability to replicate high-quality timepieces that echo the aesthetics of genuine Rolex models.
The 4131 model, previously endorsed by Yu Wenle, has been on the market for a while, but only recently has a detailed comparison of the authentic versus replica models been compiled. The authentic Rolex 126505 is known for its rose gold appearance, yet interestingly, the hour markers and bracelet are crafted in gold, not rose gold.
With features like the sunburst dial, precise printing, and attention to detail, the 126505 is described as flawless. The craftsmanship seen in the 116518 model has been seamlessly carried over to the 126505 model. Our meticulous research involved purchasing six original 4131 models, including variations like the Cement Grey, Yu Wenle edition, Panda dial, and two-tone gold versions, to ensure accuracy in replication.
Further scrutiny revealed minor differences in the thickness of the hour markers and the hands between authentic models, emphasizing C Factory’s commitment to producing replicas that mirror these subtleties. Enthusiasts with doubts can refer to previous comparisons of models like the 126519 Cement Grey or the 126500 Panda.
C Factory’s enduring reputation is built on an extensive handling of genuine Rolex pieces, ensuring minute details are mirrored with precision. Despite challenges, the support from watch enthusiasts is deeply appreciated, and the commitment to quality remains unwavering.
Though C Factory’s pricing may be higher than other factories, this stems from their unique approach—only using authentic models as templates, following the motto, “No genuine, no mold.” To achieve the closest match, every variant of the series is procured to ensure color matching.
In terms of component quality, C Factory maintains stringent standards. Even factories attempting to clone their work have sourced flawed parts from C Factory’s suppliers, highlighting the esteemed quality selection C Factory insists upon.
