VS Factory Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Deep Black Original Comparison

Machined in one piece from a solid monoblock black zirconium oxide (ZrO2) ceramic block, the Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M Deep Black is an extraordinary diver's watch that requires advanced engineering. VS Factory's use of real ceramics instead of plated metal in the case, screw-down Naiad Lock case lock and Dandong 8906 GMT caliber reveal the durability and aesthetic success of the watch compared to the original model.

1. One Piece Monoblock Black Ceramic Case Hardness (ZrO2)

In the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M Deep Black model, VS Factory used a single piece of solid zirconium oxide (ZrO2) ceramic block instead of coated metal. The case, which is carved at the micron level on diamond-tipped CNC machines, has exactly the same center of gravity and scratch-proof hardness as the original Deep Black.

2. Vulcanized Rubber Injected Diving Bezel

In the first 15-minute diving scale of the bezel, orange vulcanized rubber is injected into the black ceramic matrix. This hybrid ceramic-rubber production technique can only be successfully applied by original Omega and VS Factory. The bezel numerals are filled with Liquidmetal technology.

3. Dandong 8906 Independent Scorpion Jump GMT Mechanism

Viewed through the transparent sapphire case back, the Dandong 8906 clone caliber is an exact functional copy of the original Master Chronometer caliber with its double barrel and independent jumping hands architecture. The GMT hand follows the inner 24-hour circle perfectly.

4. Double Sided AR Coated Domed Sapphire Crystal Glass

The double-sided colorless anti-reflective coating applied on the extremely curved sapphire crystal glass creates the feeling that there is no glass under bright sunlight. The orange GMT text and Arabic numerals on the glossy black ceramic dial are read with maximum contrast.

5. Cone Helium Valve and 600m Equivalent Pressure Isolation

The helium release valve at 10 o'clock and the screw-down ceramic crown at 3 o'clock are equipped with double O-ring seals. In the dry and wet pressure tests carried out in our pressure chamber, the case showed full resistance to high pressure.

6. Naiad Lock Patented Ceramic Back Cover Locking

Omega's patented Naiad Lock back cover system ensures that the cover is always locked with the text flat and aligned. VS Factory has successfully adapted this mechanism to ceramic cover teeth, ensuring that the back cover letters always stand upright.

7. Rubber-Coated Stitched Band and Titanium-Ceramic Buckle

The composite band with orange stitching sewn on waterproof natural rubber offers unmatched comfort and lightness on the wrist. The folding buckle body is made of Grade 5 titanium, and the top lock cover is made of ceramic.

8. Macro Dial Prints and Final Evaluation

Under the microscope, the ZrO2 engraving on the dial, luminescence-filled applique indices and rhodium-plated arrow hands were examined side by side with the original reference and 1:1 perfection was confirmed.
