How is the workmanship of VS Factory Rolex 41 two-tone gold-steel black Submariner, Dandong 3235 movement, 186 g weight?

The Rolex Submariner model is produced by VS Factory with a carbon fiber and Carbotech case, standard case diameter and Dandong 3235 Clone movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

Now let's talk about some other detail work. I have already talked to you about the two-tone gold-steel black and two-tone gold-steel blue models. So let's make a brief reminder. Two years ago I talked about VS's two-tone gold-steel black, all of them including this Submariner. At that time, VS was making lume in a purer white, pale color. But last year, even towards the end of the year, they improved this. Now this is a soft green shade. It feels soft green, a bit translucent; not pure white design. The bezel is a fully ceramic bezel; It also has gold hour markers inlay on it. Moreover, the gold hour marker filling generally does not suffer from darkening or graying; This is a really good point.

Case and Body Workmanship

The bezel is a unidirectional rotating one-piece bezel; His voice is also very clear and full. There is no problem with the assembly work done by large factories using this type of manual labor. Let's look at the date window; There is a 2.5x magnifying glass. There is a small tail engraving at the end of the single digit date numbers. The hour and minute hands are in the shape of a small hat, with a solid center shaft design. Whether it's the hour hand, that Mercedes-style hour hand, or the minute hand, they're all these buff type three-dimensional hands; It gives a feeling of depth, not that thin sticking style. Edge processing and rounded corner processing was done on corners 6, 9 and 3.

All gold models released with the latest configuration of VS have been corrected again. This gold color setting now feels soft; It's not that bright yellow gold, it's a light gold tone, very soft feeling. The area where the buckle is is not yellowish, but a light gold color. This light gold color does not show much difference from the original, at least at first glance.

Movement and Caliber Performance

Finally, this is the Dandong 3235 movement. Dandong 3235 movement is another point you should distinguish. As for the general engravings and some structural elements of the Dandong mechanism: first, look at this shock absorbing part; RE's mid-Japanese type shock absorber is also on the right side, with the small gold corner. The only difference with the original is actually in this regulation design. An extra regulation has been added, that is, it is adjusted. Is the original only a single structure design without regulation? When it comes to the structure other than that, I think the workmanship is very well done. The stability of the Dandong mechanism is also very high. There are also some carbon-gold engravings.

Strap, Buckle and Comfort

When you unlock the buckle, you see that it is molded in one piece; It is not a design with any welding point. Open the inside of the buckle and look at the dragon-phoenix emblem; They're all made in the flat-top A design, and this one over there is in the flat-top A design. There is a 099 buckle code, anti-counterfeiting points are also available; Photosensitive anti-counterfeiting points are all there.

General Evaluation and Conclusion

Overall I really recommend this two color gold-steel black weighted version to you. Moreover, weighting is now done, because the gold part is not so much. I don't recommend those completely gold models to you. Because when the entire strap is gold, the buckle and the areas where the strap is located are easily worn; Then discoloration and fading problems may occur. Even if he gets hit hard. So, you need to carry a bit of an elegant and luxurious vibe in this type of partial gold model. Two colors of gold-steel black and two colors of gold-steel blue are worth investigating. Moreover, now VS has adjusted the gold color to that soft golden, light gold tone; They also gave you the weighting effect. In general, they did a very good job.
