Datejust 41 - my first super clone, blown away

I've owned two genuine Datejusts over the years. Sold them when times got tight. Missed having one on my wrist. Decided to try a super clone after reading posts here. The fluted bezel is what got me - it catches light exactly like my old genuine one. The jubilee bracelet drapes perfectly. The sunburst dial shifts from silver to almost white in direct sun. The date change at midnight is crisp. The cyclops magnifies properly. The crown screws down smoothly. My wife, who has seen my genuine ones, couldn't tell the difference. That's all the validation I needed.

Love seeing more women in the hobby. The 36mm is perfect on smaller wrists.

Beautiful piece. Did you get the Swiss movement option or the standard? Trying to decide if the upgrade is worth it.

I compared mine side by side with a genuine at a watch meetup. Nobody could tell.

My AD-loyalist friend still can't tell the difference. That's all you need to know.

Nice! What strap are you running on it? I find the bracelet a bit heavy for summer.

Salt water is the ultimate test. Mine has held up perfectly too.

The bracelet on mine has zero stretch after a year. Quality is legit.
