Bokey TimeHello everyone, this is Bokey Watch Industry. VS Factory has recently upgraded the Rolex 41mm No-Date Submariner. The key upgrade lies in the movement: previously equipped with the 3235 movement, it had an extra “calendar empty position” when adjusting the time compared to the original. However, after upgrading to the Dandong 3230 movement, it now achieves one-position time adjustment just like the original, eliminating concerns about inconsistent adjustment methods. To briefly explain, the 3230 is a derivative model of the 3235 movement with the calendar function removed. Below, Bokey will briefly introduce the specific craftsmanship of VS Factory’s 41mm No-Date Submariner to see if it represents the “top-tier version” in the market! Official model: Rolex Submariner Series m124060-0001.
Detailed Craftsmanship Review of VS Factory’s 41mm No-Date Black Submariner (Rolex Submariner Series m124060-0001) with Dandong 3230 Movement
The dial of VS Factory’s Rolex 41mm No-Date Black Submariner features a black design with white hour markers and hands, creating a strong contrast that makes time reading clearer. Both the hour markers and hands on the dial are coated with Swiss C3 luminous powder, ensuring good readability in low-light environments. Additionally, the hour and minute hands have a very unique design: their slender shape is perfectly proportioned to the dial, giving a sense of elegance without losing strength. As shown in the pictures, the English printing on the dial of VS Factory’s No-Date Black Submariner is highly three-dimensional, with details as delicate as the genuine product. The edges of the hands and hour markers are smooth, and the hands use solid central shafts, perfectly matching the details of the authentic watch.
The process of the VS factory bezel is an exclusive fired black ceramic bezel, which has excellent scratch resistance and wear resistance. The scale of the bezel is clearly visible, and it is laser engraved with high precision, giving a jeweled visual effect. The bezel also has a one-way rotation function, which can effectively avoid misoperation in diving timekeeping. The sapphire crystal mirror covering the dial increases its drop resistance, which allows this watch to remain in perfect condition in various environments.
Case strap, 41mm watch diameter, thickness is 12.5mm synchronized original. Made of 904L stainless steel, VS factory promises that the case cover and steel belt are 100% made of 904L material. 904L steel is more difficult to process and polish than 316L or 304L. There are only a few factories that can produce it, and the processing efficiency is far lower than that of 316L and 304L steel. Therefore, even factories with the ability to process 904L directly use 316L or 304L steel to stick the 904L label for shipment. The satin surface is finely brushed, and the fineness and smoothness of the metal are vividly reflected. The screw-in handle on the right side of the case, the three-buckle lock chain crown, excellent waterproof and can swim.
It is worth mentioning that VS Factory has ensured that the detailed craftsmanship on the four corner edges of the strap for the No-Date Black Submariner prevents any issues like cutting into the skin during wear. The meticulous workmanship is achieved in one step, reaching a perfect standard!
The VS Factory Rolex 41mm No-Date Black Submariner is equipped with the Dandong 3230 one-position movement developed by the Dandong Movement Factory. Through strict calibration, the daily error can be controlled within 5 seconds, which is an excellent performance in the replica watch category. Additionally, the movement has extremely strong shock resistance, ensuring the watch remains stable even during intense physical activities. The Dandong 3230 movement offers approximately 70 hours of power reserve, meaning you don’t have to worry about the watch stopping when wearing it intermittently or taking it off, reducing the frequency of winding.
Summary: Overall, the VS Factory 41mm No-Date Black Submariner excels both externally and internally. It boasts exceptional craftsmanship with meticulous exterior details, and its internal movement offers stable performance with minimal repair issues. As a top-tier replica, it’s worth purchasing!
