Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5968R-001: The 3KF “11.9mm” Super Clone
The Apex of Luxury Sport Chronographs. Featuring the legendary Brown Sunburst Dial with Black-Gradient Rim and the ultra-reliable Clone CH 28-520 C Flyback Chronograph Movement, crafted in 18K Rose Gold.
⚠️ Important Technical Notice: Caliber CH 28-520 C vs. Updated Chrono Calibers
We believe in total transparency. Recently, Patek Philippe updated some genuine Aquanaut Chronograph models to newer calibers with enhanced hacking functions. However, the replica industry (including 3KF) currently ONLY produces the Super Clone CH 28-520 C movement (exclusive for Aquanaut 5968R-001).
What this means for you: Even if the movement bridges are engraved with newer caliber markings (to visually match the latest genuine batches), the internal mechanism is still the Clone CH 28-520 C. Therefore, the watch functions like the authentic chronograph: Flyback works flawlessly, while the running seconds do NOT hack on time setting. This is normal behavior for this clone movement and ensures maximum stability and flyback responsiveness.
Why 3KF is the Market Leader?
While other factories struggle to replicate the 11.9mm thickness and flyback smoothness of the genuine 5968R, 3KF has nailed the “Impossible Chrono Build” thanks to its proprietary movement and case machining tech, perfectly matching the genuine Aquanaut 5968R-001’s robust yet refined luxury profile.
✅ True 11.9mm Thickness: The only version on the market that matches the genuine thickness 1:1. It sits comfortably on the wrist despite its 42.2mm diameter, blending 18K rose gold opulence with everyday wearability.
✅ Clone CH 28-520 C SC Movement: A fully integrated chronograph movement (not a modified base). Flyback function operates instantaneously, date adjusts clockwise (top-to-bottom), and the feel of winding & chrono-pushers is buttery smooth, mirroring the genuine’s professional-level operation.
✅ Noise Reduction & Chrono Precision Upgrade: The latest 21K gold rotor features Swiss precision bearings to minimize rotor noise, while the vertical clutch ensures no jump or stutter during chrono activation— a massive leap over earlier clone generations and a hallmark of 3KF’s engineering.
Technical Specifications
THE DIAL
Brown Sunburst with Black-Gradient Rim
The embossed surface features the correct Aquanaut “Waffle” texture, a signature of the collection. The brown sunburst dial shifts dynamically— bright chestnut in direct light, deep chocolate near the black-gradient rim, with rose gold applied Arabic numerals and baton hands coated in white luminescence for perfect legibility in low light.
THE CASE
11.9mm Ultra-Refined 18K Rose Gold
Crafted from solid 18K Rose Gold. The three-part case construction (bezel, case middle, screw-down caseback) is water-sealed and finished with expert brushing and mirror polishing on the correct edges, perfectly replicating the genuine’s robust yet elegant luxury profile, with a warm, rich metallic touch. 42.2mm diameter fits most wrists comfortably.
THE STRAP
Dark Brown Composite Rubber Signature Strap
3KF is famous for its “soft” strap feel, optimized for the Aquanaut chronograph line. The integrated dark brown rubber strap features the iconic waffle pattern, perfectly matching the dial’s brown tones, offering exceptional flexibility and all-weather durability that avoids the stiffness found in cheaper replica straps. Features the Aquanaut patented fold-over clasp with four independent catches, crafted in 18K rose gold and engraved with the Patek Philippe Geneve logo.
FINISHING
Hand-Finished Waffle Bezel & Chrono Pushers
The iconic waffle-pattern bezel features uniform brushed 18K rose gold surfaces, with crisp polished edges that catch the light beautifully— a signature design of the Aquanaut. The chrono pushers and screw-down crown are perfectly aligned, with no gaps between the case and components, mirroring the genuine’s hand-finished craftsmanship and ensuring smooth, wobble-free operation.
