Description
3K Factory Patek Philippe Ladies Nautilus 7118/1200A-001
The definitive 35.2mm Nautilus replica, leveraging a true clone 324SC movement to achieve an accurate 8.7mm case profile.
Powered by 1:1 Super Clone Caliber 324SC
The 3K Factory’s execution of the Caliber 324SC eliminates the need for a module plate over a base movement, resulting in the correct 3.3mm movement thickness. This caliber features a unidirectional 21k gold-plated central rotor, crisp côtes de Genève across the bridges, and accurate Patek Philippe seal engravings. The balance wheel operates at 28,800 vph, providing a smooth sweep for the seconds hand while maintaining excellent amplitude.
Typically regulated to ±5–8 seconds per day prior to dispatch. The clone 324SC architecture offers reliable daily performance when fully wound.
- ✅ Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
- ✅ Complications: Sweep center seconds, date aperture at 6 o’clock
- ✅ Winding Direction: Unidirectional rotor winding
Technical Notice: Clone 324 Movement
The replica market currently produces only the Clone 324 movement. Even if movement bridges are engraved ‘330’, the mechanism operates as Clone 324.
Practical implication: The seconds hand does not stop when setting the time. This is correct behavior for this movement and ensures maximum long-term stability.
Technical Specifications
Exacting 35.2mm diameter with a verified 8.7mm thickness. The case features alternating brushed and polished surfaces that accurately reflect the porthole-inspired design.
Features the signature undulating horizontal relief pattern. Applied gold hour markers are filled with luminescent coating, and the date window at 6 o’clock sits at the correct depth.
Adorned with 56 synthetic cubic zirconia stones. While lacking the refractive index of genuine diamonds, they are set cleanly within the polished steel chamfers.
Polished central links flanked by brushed outer links. The Nautilus fold-over clasp operates with satisfying tension and minimal lateral endplay.
Why 3K Factory for This Reference?
Many collectors ask: “Why not PPF?”
PPF produces a highly regarded 7118, but relies on a modified Miyota 9015 movement. This necessitates a slightly thicker case and introduces the characteristic unidirectional rotor noise of the Miyota. 3KF’s use of the clone 324SC movement allows for the verified 8.7mm thickness and 106.1g weight, bringing the tactile experience much closer to genuine.
Full Disclosure: The synthetic diamonds lack the exceptional clarity and precise cut geometry of genuine Patek factory diamonds, and the date wheel font weight can occasionally vary from the genuine typography.

Collector Q&A
Q: Does the 3KF 7118/1200A-001 use a Miyota 9015 base movement?
A: No. Unlike older versions or the PPF edition, the 3KF utilizes a 1:1 clone of the Patek Philippe Caliber 324SC. This integrated architecture allows the watch to achieve its verified 8.7mm thickness without the bulk of a module plate.
Q: Are the stones on the bezel real diamonds or moissanite?
A: The 3KF 7118 features synthetic cubic zirconia (CZ) stones. While they offer good light dispersion for a replica, they do not test as diamonds and lack the exact brilliance of genuine factory-set gems.
Q: How accurate is the blue opaline dial color on this 3K Factory release?
A: The blue opaline tone is well-executed, shifting from a muted navy to a vibrant blue under direct light. However, under specific lighting conditions, the genuine dial exhibits a slightly warmer undertone that is difficult to perfectly replicate.
Q: What is the main drawback of the 3KF clone 324SC movement?
A: While it allows for accurate case dimensions, the clone 324SC does not feature a hacking seconds function (the seconds hand does not stop when setting the time). This is actually correct for the genuine Caliber 324, but buyers expecting modern hacking functionality should be aware of this historical accuracy.
