There’s a particular charm that bicompax chronographs exude – the two opposing, symmetrical sub-dials giving the cheap UK replica watches an unmistakable charm. To a watch nerd like myself, the birth and changing of the bicompax nomenclature is just as fascinating as some of the pieces that fall under the category – I’ve written an article all about it, in fact. I won’t spend too long explaining it, but essentially, Universal Genève came up with the name in the late 1930s under the Compax name, and gave us a few memorable references. From there, the Uni-Compax and Tri-Compax followed, encompassing the famous Nina Rindt and Eric Clapton models, but rather than referring to the number of sub-dials, the names were dependent on the complications. A watch like the Clapton sported a moonphase, calendar and chronograph functions across four sub-dials – therefore, Tri-Compax.
Nowadays, the name is mostly used for fake watches for sale with two sub-dials positioned at 3 and 9 o’clock, and there are very few true bicompaxes around. Further complicating this whole thing are two-register chronographs with dates – are they bicompaxes, or is a date not considered complication enough? As this would quickly get out of hand, and as much as it pains me not to be a smartass about it, we’ll treat any two-register chrono as a bicompax from here on out.
Replica Breitling Premier B09 Chronograph 40 Watches
High quality Breitling fake watches‘ rise over the last few years should be studied, as they went from being a brand of oversized, overstyled tool watches to one that is looking to speak to even die-hard enthusiasts (though there’s still some cleaning up to do here – please, no more time-only Navitimers). Perfect copy watches UK like the Premier B09 are on the forefront of this battle, and bring a lot to the table. The 40mm case is contemporary, but wearable thanks to a thickness of just 13mm, and the pistachio dial brings modern freshness to a 1940s design, powered by the manually wound variant of the Kenissi B01 movement.

Fake Omega Speedmaster ’57 Watches
Whether it’s its revolutionary design or its space-dwelling provenance, the Omega Speedmaster is among the most iconic top Swiss replica watches around. The Professional is certainly the mainstay of the collection, but Omega went back to its 1950s roots with the Speedmaster ’57 collection, though played on the vintage-inspired theme with a few sultry colours. You can’t go wrong with any of them, and the 40.5mm x 13.4mm case is also a tad smaller than the luxury AAA super clone Omega Moonwatch, fitting of its sleeker design. Peering through the caseback, though unfortunately mostly obscured by an arabesque-striped plate, is the METAS-certified Calibre 9906. Price: US$9,500
