The Rose Gold Raymond Weil Jasmine Diamonds Ladies Watch Replica

The Swiss watchmaker has recently updated its Jasmine collection of rose gold fake Raymond Weil Jasmine Diamonds Ladies watches with a number of new models. Powered by quartz and mechanical movements, they all look great and desirable. But it was the new Raymond Weil Jasmine in Rose Gold PVD (Ref. 2935 PCS 00659) timekeeper that really grabbed our attention. Being in fact a hard PVD ceramic coating, the “rose gold” layer on the steel case, bezel and other parts of the watch is extremely resistant to wear and will probably last for years if you won’t ruin the watch with an extremely nasty scratch or dent that will reveal the other metal below the hard titanium nitride skin.

To make the ladies’ Raymond Weil copy watch look even more impressive, Raymond Weil has equipped the timepiece with 29 diamonds neatly set on its round bezel, as well as a blue sapphire cabochon that adores its notched setting crown.

Although different sorts of gold-plating are not particularly popular among people that can afford buying the real thing, the technology still offers those worse off an affordable way of making a good impression at a wedding or at some important corporate event.

The leaf-shaped and blued hour and minute hands are perfectly visible on such a brilliant background, so I can’t foresee any troubles with legibility of the watch.

The diamonds stay in a perfect harmony with the shiny silver dial that features nice-looking snailed central decor and is decorated with bold-looking black transferred Roman numerals.

If the design of the dial looks somewhat familiar to you, there is nothing wrong with it: the new watch indeed does resemble the recent timekeepers from Cartier that, too, emphasized the round date window at 3 o’clock with a curved minute track that is printed on the minute track of the dial.

As many Raymond Weil watches, the Jasmine Ref. 2935 PCS 00659 is animated by a Sellita-based caliber. In this particular case it is an RW4200 job, which is in fact a modified Sellita SW 200 self-winding ebauche.* UPDATE ON PRICE: The MSRP is in fact $4550 USD, which is a bit too high from where I stand.
