  • In this video, I will unbox and review the replica VSF Rolex Submariner 41mm Date, regarded as the best Rolex super clown on the market.

    The stainless steel Rolex uses in their watch cases is NOT some rear alloy that isn't used by anyone else. This is just marketing hype from Rolex. It's ordinary SAE 904L stainless, which is completely common trade grade steel. Just because Rolex calls it Oystersteel or whatever doesn't make it any more rear. You can order 904L in the tons from any big steel supplier, and get it delivered in a few weeks. Sheet, beams, pipe, whatever you want.
    Also, there's really no rational reason to use 904L in a diver's watch, unless you intend to dive in acid, which I wouldn't recommend anyway. 316L, which most manufactures use, is more than good enough in seawater. Especially if you flush the watch in fresh water after each dive, which is a good practice regardless.
    I say this as en engineer, who has been working in the oil and gas industry and in chemical industry where 904L is used quite a lot in tanks, tubing, piping etc, because of it's good corrosion resistance (pitting specifically) in certain environments.
    So stop repeating this nonsens that Rolex uses some very special rare stainless alloy in their watches. They don't.

    I've seen nearly every single "defect" that you claim is a sure fire sign of a "fake" Rolex on watches in authorized dealer display cases! Light between lugs, stiff links, tiny imperfections in the polish, bezel slack, etc. the key is finding multiple imperfections in a watch, that's when you know is it's a fake.

    No fake is worthwhile no matter how similar it seems. It's the same as a fake "woman." No matter how beautiful and "real" she looks, you know she will never have the real engine of a woman. She cannot bear you a child and her anatomy is different from a real woman. So, no fake Rolex gives you the same satisfaction as a genuine one. You cannot be proud to acknowledge that it's genuine and it's an achievement that you have arrived.

      Re-sale value is a non-issue for me, because i do not wear my investments on my wrists.

The aspect of horology and precision also does not interest me because i can check my iPhone for TIME. History of ROLEX also is of no interest because there are multiple successful companies with similar stories. What interests me is STYLE & SIMPLICITY which as it seems from this video a $500 watch can provide.

Any how, whenever someone complements me on my watch or starts giving me grief about wasting my money or worst calls me pretentious I always tell them it is a fake that I got from a yard sale for $25.00 and without exception they always say that they see that it is a fake now that I told them.

      So if you are traveling, why not go with a inexpensive ISO Seiko or Citizen diver. No chance of anyone of mugging you for that. Or better yet, a nice Invicta Pro Diver for 80 bucks. It's a Rolex Homage, but not so much so that a criminal is going to dust you for an Invicta. Plenty of inexpensive watches that don't advertise you as a target.

    I don't know about the bezel myth of no play back. I've own the 114060 and 126610 and they both have just the slightest play back on the bezel. by the way both were bought an my AD so zero chance of being fake. I actually did buy this rep though when I was Thailand for a vacation last year and it was scary close to the real thing but it ran 20 seconds a day. I gave it away on my last day there to nice gentleman who helped us during the vacation.

    Really great video, bro! I've had my VSF Starbucks for around a month.
    This type of video is really helpful for people looking to pull the trigger on superclones and admittedly I was looking for videos like this but most of them were in Chinese commentary with loud BGM.
    My VSF has two things I don't like about it which is
    1) The bezel is quite loose and has some backplay (your bezel looks much stiffer which I envy)
    2) Pulling the crown out to the 1st and 2nd position lacks the noticeable *click*. It's very ambiguous when trying to get into each position so maybe my stem is a little too short (but it does hack thankfully).
    Also it seems that it's notorious with VSF cases where screwing in the crown still leaves a small gap but it looks like your shower test proved it to still be water tight.
    5:44 Looks like the crown could be screwed in a bit more

    To compare it to the one in the review links are not stiff and the closure of the bracelet is crisp with no force needed. Tiny bit of back play on bezel. Slight unevenness in pressure when turning bezel, mainly when getting to the reset point. Mine also has a minute gap one one side of the link that joins the watch body on both ends of the strap.

      The investment is the time, wear, and durability of the watch. Sure it holds its value but foolish to bank on watches for value. The $$$ value only become real when you sell the watch for more than what you paid for. With Rolex modern watches will not be as valuable as pre-ceramic Rolex. The watches that will increase in value are the models that had a short production run. SeaDweller 116600, 14270 Explorer holes case, 43mm SeaDweller first year production with no crown at 6 o’clock. Yellow dial OP 41mm/36mm. Swiss only dial Submariners or other Rolex models. Right now these are at obtainable prices but who knows in 20-30 years how much will they be worth?

    Would be a perfectly good watch if they used their own branding and left the movement bear.

      @@EspressoWatches Exactly. I honestly have never had an issue with homage watches, and prior to owning my Black Bay 58, I’d owned a bunch. Although homages are knock offs, I see no real issue with them, as they are awesome bang for buck watches for those who don’t care for branding. Replicas have just always seemed so odd to me. Perfectly good watch ruined by the fake branding.
      The funniest bit of it all, is that they'd be able to sell it for more money, have an easier time getting past customs, and they'd have a far larger customer base. Imagine a Ginault type company using non-patented Rolex 31xx caliber clones, with the same finishing as the fake Sub, and with actual customer service. The latest Sugess chronograph is a step in the right direction.

      Because the real thing just isn't available and due to cost of living differences and import tax even if it was a plain steel Submariner would be the equivalent of probably half a million US dollars to the average westerner.
      In a land where the average salary is in the region of $300 a month most of which is not disposable a watch priced in the tens of thousands of dollars just isn't viable.

    So I agree with what you said about people’s comments. It takes a little bit more work than just buying a VSF. You’ll have to swip swap parts if you truly want it to be undetected by the naked eye. Pretty annoying buying 3 submariners for their parts but it’s still cheaper than gen.

If you buy online ALWAYS take it to a Rolex AD to verify if your watch is genuine. Don’t support fake watches. Don’t be posers. Yes a Rolex is expensive but not impossible to obtain.

Not even CF or VSF can ever recess the SELs against the lugs properly and you end up with those big black lines on all four lugs that look horrible to look at. On a gen, the recession is perfect and super subtle on every of the four corners and therefore the "black lines" u see on ur rep (between the SELs and the lugs) are seamless and don't create those massive black lines that is created with the terrible recession of reps. They recess it too much and it just looks bad. Also the engraving on the clasp is terrible. I own the latest CF, VSF, and a gen and this is how I know all this. The reps are nowhere near a gen in terms of actual quality. Every rep fan boy that claims nonsense, is because they've never owned a gen and just want to convince themselves otherwise .
