VS Factory Rolex new Submariner "3235 movement" workmanship review

The Rolex Submariner model is produced by VS Factory with a solid 904L stainless steel case, 41 mm diameter and Super Clone P.9000 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.

Judging by VS Factory's past market strategy, more Rolex series models will be developed with the brand new 3235 movement from now on. Models released so far include the 41mm Yacht-Master and the 41mm Datejust released a few days ago; they all use this 3235 movement. In fact, this movement was available two months ago, but at that time it was only used in the 42 mm Yacht-Master and was limited to domestic sales only, it was not spread to the entire market.

VS Factory Rolex 41 Submariner review

Since the new 41 mm Rolex Submariner released this time was a big project, it was of course produced by taking an exact mold from the original; It was not enough to just take the 40 mm Submariner as a reference and increase its size. Therefore, the details of this watch have been replicated exactly and each watch is accompanied by a special card and serial number.

In terms of materials and workmanship, the case and bracelet are made entirely of 904L steel; The brushing workmanship is fine and exquisite, the steel processing quality is at the top level of the market. The biggest difference is in the internal mechanism and size.

The bezel of the Green Submariner has eliminated the problems of color tone and paint finish, which are two major weaknesses in the market; It has a more vibrant green and the color does not fade. All new Submariner models use black dials.

The balance wheel departure angle of the 3235 movement released by VS Factory is 59°, the same as the original; It should be noted that it is not 52°, which is common in the market. This is exactly where the market version differs from VS Factory. When plugging into Timegraph, remember to set the departure angle data to 59°; then run it for 20 seconds and look at the data. If the take-up angle is set at 52° and the oscillation amplitude is over 270° when fully wound, this is definitely not the VS Factory 3235 or the original 3235 mechanism. When set to 52°, the oscillation amplitude of VS Factory's Submariner remains below two hundred.

This VS Factory brand new 3235 movement has a 72-hour power reserve; Yes, exactly 72 hours. The 3235 movements on the market, that is, modified versions of the domestically produced 2824/2836, actually offer a power reserve of approximately 38 hours and can only last one night. VS's brand new 3235 movement can work continuously for a weekend in the tests; A truly permanent solution. As can be seen from the factory price, the production cost of this movement is higher than ordinary 3135 or other Seagull based movements. It costs about XXX more than the factory price of the regular 3135 Submariner; The biggest change is in this mechanism. Its structural design is rational; Parts such as the blue mainspring and shock absorber are imported parts.

How about the VS Factory 41 mm Rolex Submariner?

We can say that this watch is a product series developed on the basis of a successful mechanism, like other VS products; just like the Panerai product line derived from the P9000 movement. The only difference is that the competition in the Rolex brand has become much fiercer.

Judging by the previous conflict between VS and ZF Factory over the Submariner, the two major factories have the power to compete and their product quality is definitely at a level that can pass the test. This time, VS Factory purchased the original 41 mm Submariner and replicated it exactly; The dominance in steel processing and dial details maintains the same level as previous Submariner models. The 3235 caliber had already demonstrated its advantages in the 42 mm Yacht-Master; Its performance is stable and when you disassemble and examine the mechanism, you can see how meticulous its processing is.

We have always maintained the understanding of honest and impartial review, we have not hesitated to tell the truth, we have been sincere and realistic, and we have resolutely fulfilled our promise of service with our actions. Thank you again for your interest.
