Bokey TimeHello everyone, this is Bokey Watch Industry. Today, we’re going to talk about the latest multi-function complete calendar moon phase wristwatch from the ZF Factory’s Vacheron Constantin FIFTYSIX Patrimony Contemporaine series. Regarding the Patrimony Contemporaine series, ZF Factory previously launched the basic three-hand model 4600E. This time, they present a complex multi-function model integrating moon phase, date, day of the week, and month displays, also known as the Patrimony Contemporaine 4000E blue dial complete calendar moon phase wristwatch. This watch is also an upgrade based on the three-hand model. Now, let’s briefly discuss the functions and specific craftsmanship of this ZF replica Patrimony Contemporaine 4000E blue dial complete calendar moon phase wristwatch.
ZF Factory Vacheron Constantin FIFTYSIX Patrimony Contemporaine 4000E Complete Calendar Moon Phase Blue Dial – Real Shots by Bokey
First, let’s take a look at the genuine product parameters: Vacheron Constantin Fifty-six series 4000E/000A-B548 watch. Price: 184,000.
First, let’s take a look at the entire dial of the ZF Factory Patrimony Contemporaine. This watch features a deep blue dial. We all know that replicating blue dials is relatively challenging, as color discrepancies are often more noticeable. However, with the ZF Factory Patrimony Contemporaine 4000E, whether it’s the previous three-hand version or this complete calendar moon phase version, the blue color deviation is extremely well-controlled. You can confidently purchase it without worrying about an obvious “fake” appearance.
In terms of the watch glass, sapphire glass material is used and coated with a colorless anti-reflective coating. As can be seen from the picture, the transparency is very high and it is difficult to detect the existence of the mirror.
In terms of functions, the two rectangular windows at 12 o’clock respectively display the month and week. The date display is on the outer ring scale. Unlike traditional watches, there is no calendar window. It is indicated by an arrow pointer. The moon phase disk is located at 6 o’clock. All the above functions can be adjusted by the side buttons. Here, let’s mention that except for the month function that cannot be linked with the calendar, all other functions of this watch are consistent with the original. Although it cannot be linked, we only need to press the first button on the right on the first day of each month to adjust it and enter the next month. If you say this problem is very serious, in fact, it is not. You only need to press it once a month. But at least it is a small regret at the detail level or function level!
In terms of the scale, the genuine product uses a scale made of platinum material, while the ZF factory uses stainless steel material. After polishing treatment, it is relatively shiny. Then, there is nothing wrong with the pointer. The central axis is also made relatively solid. Now it feels that the details of the ZF factory are becoming more and more conscientious.
At the six o’clock position is a moon phase function. The function is also consistent with the genuine product. It makes one revolution in a month. Moreover, this moon phase disk is also made with a bright surface that is consistent with the genuine product and has a slightly raised three-dimensional effect.
In terms of size and thickness:
This ZF factory’s Fifty-six full calendar moon phase watch is measured by Bokey. The size is 40 millimeters and the thickness is 11.6 millimeters, which is highly consistent with the data of the genuine product.
In terms of the case, it also uses 316 stainless steel material. Speaking of this case of the Fifty-six model, it is indeed relatively special. It is not like a traditional round case. It is a feeling like a box is inlaid. The four lugs are derived from the four corners of its Malta series. The side polishing treatment is also very in place. The four small buttons all have real functions. Refer to the above function diagram.
The logo on the crown is also relatively three-dimensional.
The back adopts a see-through design. The entire 316 stainless steel screw-in back cover is polished with a mirror finish. The brand logo information is engraved on it. The middle is sapphire glass.
Through the sapphire crystal, we can see that this ZF Factory Patrimony Contemporaine 4000E replica watch is equipped with a 2406 movement modified from the 9015. Overall, the simulation degree of this movement is approximately 80%. Basically, skeletonized replica watches cannot withstand particularly rigorous scrutiny, which is unavoidable. After all, as you know, the price difference is significant. With a price difference between several thousand yuan and 180,000 yuan, I think it is completely understandable that there are differences in the movements.
In terms of the strap, it uses a dark blue strap made of calfskin material. The overall stitching is also very good. The texture will be a bit harder. For those who pursue wearing experience.
In terms of the buckle, it is also equipped with a shield-shaped butterfly buckle that imitates the genuine product. Basically, there is no need to introduce too much when opening the buckle. Because some people in the ZF factory also call it the buckle factory. Because its buckle workmanship is indeed highly restored. For some previous models, some watch enthusiasts have bought them and installed them on genuine watches. It is basically universal for the original. Let’s take a look at the detail pictures briefly.

Summary: In my personal opinion, the multi-functional complex model of the Patrimony Contemporaine series launched by ZF Factory this time is very good. If you are looking for a multi-functional business watch, I think this is a recommended model. Although some people compare it to the OM Factory’s Blancpain 6654, in terms of brand reputation, I personally feel that Vacheron Constantin, as the “eternal second” in the watchmaking world (second only to Patek Philippe), carries more prestige than Audemars Piguet or Blancpain when worn in public.
