The Masterpiece Rolex replica is probably the most popular Rolex replica model on the market today. Retail prices for genuine Rolex Masterpiece watches are between $18,000 and $30,000 – if you can get your hands on one. The best Masterpiece Rolex replica – the Grade 1 Swiss – will sell for about $1,300.

The faces are white, black, blue or rose mother of pearl with 18k triple-wrapped white or yellow gold. They use genuine scratch-resistant, pressure-proof sapphire crystal.

The Grade 1 replicas claim to be certified water resistant to 3 ATM (30 meters, 100 ft).

Grade 1 replicas have genuine Rolex-style date fonts. The font of the date is usually a dead-giveaway for poorer replicas. Only on Grade 1 Replicas are the fonts magnified 2.5 times, exactly like the real thing. All other qualities of replicas have 2x or lower magnification.

The back covering the case of the watch is a strong piece of solid stainless steel. Some cheaper fake watches have a glass back instead of the solid back.

The best Rolex replicas have the emblem carved out from one solid piece of stainless steel, exactly like the real thing. It is a very expensive process, and that is why on cheaper fake watches, the emblem is just glued on. This is also known as a two-piece.

The latest grade 1 masterpiece Rolex replicas with 18k yellow gold bands will have all-new Swiss-made automatic jewel movement with a smoother sweeping second hand which is a slight upgrade from the movements in previous 2003 and older models.

It will have a triple-wrap 18k gold bezel and crown and sharper markings due to a new laser-etching process for markings on the dial, the night illumination is brighter, and it has triple-wrap 18k gold dials.

The Masterpiece Rolex replicas now use moissanite instead of the cubic zirconia stones previously used for their Diamond markers. Man made moissanite is said to have the same chemical make-up as real diamonds and it may even test positive as a real diamond. It also has been said that it has a higher infraction index (higher glare) than a real diamond so it will often look brighter.
