With a helpful little break after the whirlwind that was the Geneva watch auctions in April and May, the wheels of the vintage Swiss made replica watches world keep turning, and we look next to the June auction by Watches of Knightsbridge. Numbering nearly 200 lots, there’s plenty to choose from. You’d think that, as with most auctions, steel sports AAA UK Rolex fake watches might continue to dominate – but with only 23 lots total, it leaves enough time in the limelight for other highlight-worthy pieces. As usual, we picked out a few headlining lots, but also a couple of hidden gems that you might’ve just overlooked.
Replica Cartier Tank Cintrée London Watches (Lot 29)
Any top Cartier fake watches that carries “London” on the dial is pretty special, and this midsize Cintrée is no different. Though the Cintrée shape was imagined in the 1920s, the creativity of the brand’s London outpost in the 1960s couldn’t simply circumvent its (dare I say) iconic curved case and dial. But rather than iterate on its Art Deco shape, Cartier London modernised the Cintrée with elongated Roman numerals forming a neat rectangle in the middle of the dial, and replacing the “old-fashioned” Breguet hands with a sword handset. This particular Cartier London Cintrée copy watches for sale stands apart with its white gold case, which is decidedly rarer than its yellow counterparts, as well as its original black dial. Stamped with a movement number suggesting a production year of 1968, it’s powered by the rectangular, manually wound Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre K840.
Estimate: £30,000 – £50,000
Fake Cartier Pasha Perpetual Calendar Minute Repeater ref. W30012 Watches (Lot 16)
We’re still in the realm of best 2025 Cartier replica watches, but we jump forward some 20 years and completely change design direction. The 1980s signified a big shift in Cartier’s modus operandi, as they no longer separately operated from their Paris, London, and New York offices. The unification didn’t stop design advancement, however, with a bigger focus on the more affordable and sporty. To bring this vision to life, Cartier recruited the now-famed wholesale Swiss super clone watches designer Gérald Genta to create the Pasha. One of the designs was this: a Perpetual Calendar Minute Repeater. With symmetrically positioned, cabochon-set crowns (technically one of them’s a pusher, fine), the 38mm case housed a busy dial with that all-important lapis lazuli and gold moonphase.
While the design was certainly out there, and remains to this day, one of its most notable features is the movement. It is an automatic variant (with a Cartier-branded skeletonised rotor) of the ultra-thin calibre Genta brought to market in 1982 for his ref. G2015, developed in-house by Michael Golay, featuring intricate engravings on all of the bridges. It was also impressive technically, measuring a mere 2.72mm in its hand-wound variant, and its repeater activated with the pusher at 9 o’clock instead of a slider. The replica watches shop UK dates to 1988, and while not as rare as the run of five pieces in platinum, still presents with its original box, winder, corrector tool and warranty papers. Moreover, it’s an example of watchmaking at its very best from a bygone era, combining some of the most respected names in the industry.
Estimate: £15,000 – £25,000
Rolex Explorer “Blackout” ref. 14270 Replica Watches (Lot 143)
The next lot on the list jumps forward by only a couple of years, but once again does a 180 in terms of style. With its instantly recognisable Oyster case, best quality fake Rolex Explorer watches has long been what many consider to be the perfect daily all-rounder. The ref. 14270 we’re looking at here was notable for two things. First of all, it was the watch that took over from the Explorer ref. 1016, doing so by clearly distinguishing itself as a modern, luxury 2025 replica watches with applied numerals and a high-beat calibre, despite its 1989 introduction already being 36 years ago. Now that I’ve made everyone feel old, the first run of the 14270 is particularly desirable for having non-luminous 3, 6, and 9 numerals – hence the “Blackout” nickname. Being an E series, the UK copy watches site offered by Watches of Knightsbridge is considered to be the rarest of Blackout variants, especially with its original seconds hand with a lume pip further towards the hour markers.
Estimate: £8,000 – £12,000
