Clean Factory (CF) Shut Down in July 2025
Clean Factory (CF) shut down in July 2025 and is no longer producing or supplying watches. So if you see someone selling watches labeled as "CF Factory" now, be careful — it doesn’t mean the original CF factory is still behind them. At best, they may be leftover stock that was already in the market before the shutdown.
At this point, "CF" watches in the market are usually one of three things:
Existing old stock already in the market.
Some pieces may be leftover inventory produced before CF shut down. These could still be circulating, but the quantity is limited, and it’s very hard to verify whether they’re genuine old CF stock.
Other factories or sellers using the CF name.
Some regular or low-end watches get labeled “CF” just so the seller can charge more. It’s not real CF — it’s just a name being used to mark up the price.
A straight-up scam.
They take your money and either never ship, or send you something completely wrong. Then their support disappears.
So if you see "CF Factory" watches anywhere else, watch out. You’re not necessarily getting real CF. It could be old stock, fake-labeled low-end product, or a scam.
