About VS GMT-Master II

Last time, I introduced the GMT-Master II Pepsi from VS Factory in article https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/06/16/vs-factory-gmt-master-pepsi/, I said some advantages of their GMT-Master II when being compared with the one from Clean, but yesterday, I found my opinions are wrong, later I will explain this. Today, I will show you some new GMT-Master II watches which VS factory just published, they include Batman, Pepsi and Sprite, please see pictures below, the oyster bracelet version and jubilee bracelet version available.

The first GMT-Master II Sprite with green dial, only AR and THB made it before, but they use SH3285 movement, if you want the best one, I recommend this one from VS Factory, they use DD3285 movement, and Clean Factory does not make this watch.

Now, back to the thing I mentioned in the first paragraph. When VS Factory firstly published the Pepsi GMT-Master II, I made a short review and thought it is much better than the one made by Clean. Just yesterday, I realized I shouldn’t think this way. In promoting their GMT-Master II, VS indeed claimed their GMT-Master is better than the ones made by other watch makers in the market, a lot of watch distributors also reviewed this watch in the videos to explain what advantages it has in every aspect when being compared with the one from Clean, they said VS GMT-Master II is much better than the one from Clean. Now I do not agree with this view.

First, both GMT-Master II Pepsi watches from Clean and VS are close to the genuine watch. This is what I think right now. Clean uses an older genunine watch to make the replica, while VS uses a newer genuine watch to make the replica, VS said they refer to the designs of the new watch published in 2022. I do not know what are the differences between the old version and new version on the same watch published by Rolex. However, some watch dealers said VS GMT-Master Pepsi is closer to the genuine watch than Clean version, this is totally wrong.

Second, Clean Factory has been making the GMT-Master replicas for years, VS just started to produce them, can VS surpass Clean right from the start? Impossible. Many dealers said the GMT-Master II Pepsi has surpassed the one made by Clean in all aspects, can you believe this nonsense?

Third, just like I said before, to get the DD3285 movement, VS will share part of their DD3235 movements with Clean, now some Datejust watches from Clean factory being equipped with DD3235 movement has appeared in the market, see the pictures of Datejust and movement below. Between Clean and VS, looks like they’ve got some under-the-table deal going on, like saying VS GMT-Master II is better than Clean is allowed in this industry.

    Thank you for the detailed assessment. With Clean no longer would recommend the VSF v3 (i’m looking at a Batgirl) ? I’m leary since VSF has been known to misrepresent the steel used as 904. What else are they misrepresenting? Also do any of the reps really mirror the Rolex GMT movement i The Dandong 3285 is a GMT movement that provides the functions of both a local hour and a 24-hour hand, but the GMT hand does not have a jumping hour function. True GMT movement, such as the Rolex Caliber 3285, has a “jumping” local hour hand that can be independently
