Yes there are 1:1 replicas all the way down to the movements. The most common is the yuki 3135 they even interchange with gen parts approx 90% the only difference in the replica movements are the balance wheel does not have weights as well as the the balance bridge is two pieces. At first glance it fools jewelers but after detailed inspection you can tell. They even have gone as far as reverse cannon gears. For a good deep sea replica $400-600 with some mods. anything above that is a rip off. I have to educate people mostly pawn shops here in San Diego about these because they are getting burned on mostly submariners.
