Richard Mille Super Clone RM35-02

Today, we’re reviewing the newly upgraded V3 version of the Richard Mille RM35-02 full carbon fiber NTPT replica from ZF Factory. The RM35 series is one of the brand’s most popular lines. Early replicas from other factories often used modified Citizen movements and added plates that resulted in poor accuracy and appearance. The ZF V3 aims to fix these issues with a more realistic movement layout and upgraded materials.

Richard Mille RM35-02 Overview

The official retail price of the RM35-02 is extremely high, even for the entry-level models. The RM35 series has many strap options and is widely seen on major social media platforms and among celebrities, especially in China. It has become a must-have piece in the luxury watch world.

Below is a breakdown of the V3 replica’s design, upgrades, and craftsmanship.

ZF Factory V3 RM35-02 Full Carbon Fiber Image Display

On the front, the ZF V3 version uses Richard Mille–style NTPT carbon fiber, creating a full carbon case. The cloud-shaped carbon grain and wave pattern are hand-polished by ABD’s case-making team, resulting in an impressive textured feel on the wrist. Compared to older versions, the previous KV factory model used a much rougher pattern, making it easy to spot as fake. ZF has significantly improved this.

Movement Comparison

Side-by-side comparisons show:

• ZF’s carbon grain is clean and natural

• KV’s pattern looks simple and incorrect

• KV’s movement has no transmission function, meaning the hour and minute hands don’t rotate when adjusting time

• ZF’s V3 movement fixes this, accurately simulating the real mechanism

Accuracy of the Replica

The ZF RM35-02ZF is currently the only replica using movement layouts synchronized with the original model.
The case size is also identical: 4.2mm × 50mm × 14.2mm.

The gear structure is very close to the original, and the English engravings are clean, deep, and well-finished.

Dial & Lume

The dial has:

• Bright, even fluorescence

• Correct RM-style arcs and layout

• A luminous effect close to the genuine model

Crown, Crystal & Case Back

The red crown with black carbon fiber ring looks excellent.
ZF uses carbon fiber for upper and lower case parts, while many cheaper replicas don’t.

Notable details:

• Crown size matches the original

• Rubber ring on the crown is interchangeable with genuine parts

• Blue-coated sapphire crystal with strong clarity

• Case back engravings are deep and refined

The skeletonized movement layout and gear structures have been crafted to closely resemble the original RM35-02.

Strap & Buckle

The strap is made of natural rubber, soft and comfortable.
The titanium buckle uses high-grade raw materials and is also interchangeable with genuine components.

ZF offers the straps and buckles in multiple colors.

Are There Any Flaws in the ZF V3 RM35-02?

Even though the V3 version has made huge improvements, a few small flaws remain:

• The flywheel at the 4 o’clock position does not rotate like the genuine one

• Some minor structural differences still exist internally

However, for a replica in this price range, the ZF V3 is incredibly accurate. The movement’s ability to rotate both hour and minute hands properly is a major upgrade, and overall the watch is difficult to distinguish from the original unless examined by an expert.
