Clean Factory’s 226627 grade 5 titanium Yacht watch is the first to feature a ceramic tube in its strap! Ceramic tube! Ceramic tube! Clean Factory purchased the 226627 in June 2024 and spent nearly a year developing the titanium Yacht watch. Using titanium is unprecedented for Rolex, and they were extremely strict in selecting grade 5 titanium (a specialty material widely used in aviation and medical applications). Rolex often resorts to performance enhancements, for example, while PP uses 316, Rolex goes the extra mile and uses 904L. Of course, the biggest challenge in development is that Clean also uses the same grade 5 titanium, which can be tested with a spectrometer and distinguished by color. Interested parties can research this information. As a less popular model, Clean Factory strives to perfectly showcase the grade 5 titanium craftsmanship, a hallmark of Clean Factory watchmaking. The weight of the watch head is 57g, identical to the authentic piece. The genuine strap is 49g, while the clean one is 52g. Because the clean one has a protective film, the actual difference is approximately 2g. The original Rolex welds on the clasp weren’t tight enough, posing a risk of falling off. Therefore, the clean one reinforced this area. Of course, the overall difference of 2-3g is barely noticeable on the wrist. The brushed finish on the case and strap is virtually identical. Ceramic bezels, straps, and hands are all within the clean’s grasp, given that the yacht model, already on sale, is a leader in the industry. Material costs have increased, including the significantly more difficult grinding process of grade 5 titanium compared to standard metals, resulting in a few hundred RMB higher price. We hope watch lovers will understand this. We hope everyone will recognize the meticulous approach to watchmaking at clean.
