It seems that very few things are as singularly focused as Formula 1 just in my experience. While I am more of a casual observer than a true fan, I’ve been lucky enough to witness various stages of a Grand Prix weekend on two separate occasions. Both of these first-hand forays into the sport left an immense impression. A brief look into a competitive world of highly specialized technology, fiery politics, and a nearly endless supply of funds – all brought to bear in an attempt to simply go faster than everyone else. Each team operates like a private space program, but, they’re shaving tenths of a lap time instead of putting a man on the moon. 
Automotive-themed fake watch designs walk a very fine line, and it’s normal to see the automotive aspect conflict with the normal goals of a legible watch design. With the AMG 50th Ingenieur, I feel that IWC did a good job of ensuring that the design still functioned as a cheap replica watch and that the automotive tie-in was subtle. Being a chronograph, the layout is busy but very legible and the dial feels balanced, with extra automotive inspiration via the large two-digit minute markers.
Being an engineer, anti-magnetism is expected and the AMG 50th engineer has an inner case element made from soft iron. The sapphire display case back shows an element of that protective inner case rendered to look like the carbon ceramic brake disc provided on some of Mercedes AMG models.
Aside from perhaps the added thickness, I rather like this execution for a case back, especially on a limited edition model. What’s more, the brake disc design carries AMG’s “One Man – One Engine” motto, which refers to AMG’s process of having a single person complete, by hand, the build of an AMG engine. 
But as far as I am concerned, I like that if you never flipped the replica watches over, you’d have no idea that it was connected to an automotive brand. The AMG 50th Ingenieur is not going to be most people’s idea of an ideal Ingenieur, especially as it forgoes the typical Genta case shape. But from Cars and Coffee to an amateur track day, to the truly incredible world of Formula 1, the IWC Ingenieur Chronograph Sport Edition “50th Anniversary of Mercedes-AMG” may be just the thing for 250 die-hard Mercedes-AMG fans.

Every part of Rolex watches are dispensable, these items include case, dial, bezel and bracelet or strap. As a matter of fact, we’d venture to say that switching out a strap changes the appearance of a replica Rolex watch completely. That’s not completely true with other parts of the watch.

The Rolex unveiled a completely new bracelet, the Oysterflex, just two years ago. Such an important timepiece component deserves some attention, so sit back, strap in, and read our ultimate guide to Rolex bracelets, bands, and straps.
We’ll begin with the most ubiquitous Rolex bracelet — the Oyster bracelet. Characterized by its flat three-piece links construction, this is the most varied of the bracelet bunch. It is the bracelet of choice of famous fake Rolex sports watches like the Submariner and the Daytona, as well as, typical replica watches like the Datejust and Oyster Perpetual and plenty in between.
In addition to being the most widespread Rolex band, the Oyster bracelet is also the most diverse. It’s available in a slew of materials. You can have it in rugged 904L stainless steel, two-tone Rolesor, solid 18k gold, and even 950 platinum. What’s more, the gold choices include all three colors: 18k yellow, 18k white, and 18k Everose rose gold.
Absolutely, there are also various sizes of the Oyster bracelet depending on the watch. From the smaller Lady-Datejust watches to the larger GMT-Master pilot watches to the jumbo Deepsea dive watches, the versatile Oyster bracelet is always a great fit.
Something you need to know if you are in the market for Replica Rolex Smurf
The Rolex Submariner replica watch is a greatly desirable sports watch famous as the Smurf. This watch came to market in 2008 and was one of three all-gold Submariner models to debut that year. A totally brand new Submariner model, the watch boasts its own set popular characteristics that set it apart from other Rolex sports watches.
The Rolex Submariner is crafted completely out of 18 karat white gold. Precious metals add a weight that is unlike any other metal option. As a matter of fact, many Smurf owners will agree that their first impression of the Submariner was its distinct weight and feel. The quality and value are apparent from the moment this reference touches your wrist. The Submariner Smurf is a perfect choice if you’re in the market for a truly unique white gold sports watch. 
The impressive all-gold finish is constructed entirely out of white Rolex gold, which is forged in the replica Rolex foundry using only high-quality metals. Often referred to as “Grey Gold”, Rolex gold does not need to be re-plated after years of wear and scratches and offers a consistent finish from its core to the surface.
Next, is the unique, all-blue Cerachrom unidirectional bezel. Virtually corrosion and scratch-resistant, the ceramic bezel will withstand years of exposure to salt water. Platinum inserts complement the white gold case and Oyster bracelet, proving that Rolex left no detail out when developing the Rolex Smurf.
Much to the delight of Rolex aficionados, the Smurf also introduced a unique lacquered blue dial to the Submariner line. Unlike any other dial in the Rolex catalog, the Smurf dial offers an attractive, almost wet-looking sheen that celebrates the nautical history of the Submariner divers watch. This particular dial features larger luminous markers and wider hands, creating what is known as the “Maxi Dial”.
While the fake Rolex Smurf offers a traditional 40mm Oyster case, it will fit bigger on the wrist with a measurement of 48mm from lug to lug. Besides, referred to as the Rolex “Super Case”, the newer 40mm Oyster case offers a bold and modern fit. White gold, solid end links, and broad lugs add to the impressive stature of the Smurf on the wrist. The Oyster bracelet is also worth mentioning. Each link is solid and utilizes an attractive satin and high-polish dual-tone finish. A newer Glidelock clasp also debuted with the Rolex Smurf, allowing the wearer to adjust the length up to 5mm without the use of tools.
The original Rolex divers cheap watch, the Submariner has since become a coveted collector’s item among professional divers and avid collectors alike. As Rolex keeps on improving upon the design of the Submariner in coming years, it will be exciting to see what they come up with next.
