About VS factory

In the past months, I introduced the stories of some watch makers, including Clean, APS, ZF, OM and 3K, some readers shown the interest and asked me to give an introduction of VS factory, having been in this industry for a lot of years, I know some things but not too much about VS, so today, I will write these things out for you to read.

First, some readers still asked me where to buy Noob watches, I already mentioned on my previous posts that Noob has been closed forever, they won’t come back to the business in future.

About VS, this is really a big factory and has a longer history than any other watch makers in the market including Clean and ZF. VS is actually more famous than ZF and Clean all over the worldwide. Long long ago, someone went to the Zhanxi watch market and found that the replica Panerai PAM 111 and PAM 005 made by Noob were popular, then he decided to make better replica Panerai watches and sell, he believed that the automatic models would be more popular and started to make the first replica PAM 441. In 2015, the Panerai replicas they made are sold under name KW, and the other name V6 they used for selling replicas of Cartier Ballon Bleu. Those Panerai replicas they made at the beginning are using Shanghai 7750 movement with chronograph feature removed, some people said it is Dandong 7750, I do not know. This movement is added with extra plates with similar decoration to genuine P.9000 movement. The release of this movement was a big surprise at that time, and Panerai replicas made by KW became very hot, I think more popular than today.

In the end of 2016, the first generation of super clone P.9000 movement was born, but it did not have an important feature, which is its hour hand could not be independently adjusted. The first generation of super clone P.9000 was a big improvement in fake Panerai field at that time. And they decided to use a new name VS in 2017, so VS was officially born. The first batch of replica Panerai watches with the super clone P.9000 movement, which include PAM 441 and PAM 661, immediately became the best sellers in the market once being introduced. The Cartier Ballon Bleu replicas from V6 were also being sold very well at the same time. They earned a lot of money. Later, they opened another branch named XF to make VC 2000V and AP 15202.

After, VS decided to make Omega Seamaster, the replica Seamaster 300m Omega watches came out first, I do not know which year it was, these Seamaster 300m replicas coming from VS are equipped with Asia clone 2824 automatic movement that was dressed to Omega 8800 calibre. The first batch of Omega Seamaster 300m replicas won a lot of customers immediately because of their super quality and clean assembly, because VS factory has already used fully automated production and assembly at that time. In the same year, the second generation of super clone P.9000 movement came out.

I do not know when Noob factory started to use Dandong 4130 movement in the Daytona, but in the same year, VS factory unveiled a lot of Omega replicas including Seamaster 150m and 600m as well as De Ville that use clone 8500 and clone 8900. From that time, customers who like Omega only bought the replicas from VS, because they have the best super clone 8500 and 8900 movement. About Panerai, all super clone P series movements are coming from VS.

In 2020, VS introduced two important movements, one is Dandong 3135, which is equipped in VS 40mm Submariner, the other is Dandong 3235, which is equipped in VS 41mm Submariner and Datejust. They started to seize the market share of replica Rolex. Later, the second generation of Shanghai 3135 movement used by other factories was born, but it still can not compete with VS 3135, that’s the reason why Clean abandon it and choose to use Dandong 3135.

Next, it is the raid, many factories closed, VS was closed for some time but it finally came back. During the closure period, we witnessed the rapid growth of another actory, which is Clean. If that raid did not happen, I think VS today controls the biggest market share of super clone Rolex. Do you agree? Because of that event, now VS delivers much slower than before. Anyway, you should feel lucky because VS is still in the business.

Top Ten Best-selling Panerai Replica Watches in 2020

Always as popular as Rolex, Panerai is a brand that is loved by more and more young people. In recent two years, it seems like Panerai slightly changed their watch style and unveiled some models that are in smaller dimension, to accept more customers in different ages and wrist size. I believe their strategy has succeeded, you can also get this conclusion from the sales of Panerai replica watches in our market, in the following top ten list, a lot of them were just released within two years, and I hope you can find your ideal Panerai replica watch from this list.

VSF PAM 441

1.VSF PAM 441

I introduced this Panerai watch in another top ten list before, while after two years, PAM 441 is still one of the best-selling replica Panerai watches. If you are looking for a ceramic Panerai, I recommend PAM 441 and PAM 438, both are made by VS factory. In December, 2020, XF also released PAM 441, but they finally decided to sell it at a big discount, I think the main reason is that they are not able to compete with VSF. PAM 441 has a see-through crystal back, so it is very important to make the movement look nice, while this Super Clone P.9001 from VS factory is the best clone P.9001 movement in the market, you don’t even have to worry that your friends see the movement and find it is a replica, it won’t happen.

VSF PAM 1441 Replica

2.VSF PAM 1441

Very similar to PAM 441, a brother model, while you can notice there are several difference on the dial, case back and movement. Although PAM 1441 replica was released by VS factory in December, it was sold very well, just like its brother PAM 441. Many people bought PAM 1441 because the solid case back seems to be more acceptable to them, well, that does not mean the movement inside PAM 1441 replica is not good, the watch is equipped with VSF’s Super Clone P.9010, you can not find big flaws even you open the back to check.

PAM 1312 Replica

3.VSF PAM 1312

It is the first Panerai replica watch I recommend if you are looking for a stainless steel model. PAM 1312 has a really nice outlook, stainless steel case, black dial and black leather strap, this combination makes the watch fulfill most people’s aesthetic principles. PAM 1312 is a brother model of PAM 312, both are good replicas from VS factory and are sold very well in our market. PAM 1312 features a solid case back, with a Super Clone P.9010 movement inside, VS factory can ship a free white rubber band with this watch.

PAM 1616 Replica

4.VSF Submersible Carbotech PAM 1616

PAM 1616 deserves this position, it is from Panerai’s 47m Submersible line, although in big size, but VS factory makes the replica with real forged carbon material, the watch feels very light even the case thickness is up to 17mm. Dial is attractive, it uses fresh blue color on hands and hour markers, coupled with the new-style hour and minute hands, the entire watch looks younger than previous Submersible watches. The replica is equipped with VSF’s iconic Super Clone P.9000 movement, which is considered to be the best clone P series movement with absolutely high stability.

PAM 960 Replica

5.VSF Submersible Carbotech PAM 960

In outlook, it is very similar to PAM 1616, PAM 960 is another Submersible replica watch that is sold well in 2020. Compared with PAM 1616, PAM 960 is only 42mm in case diameter, and 14.5 mm in thickness, much smaller now, it seems to be more acceptable to most people, after all they do not have such a big wrist.

PAM 1661 Replica

6.VSF PAM 1661

It is a Panerai watch that looks very cool. The replica is also made with sold forged carbon by VS factory, so are the crown bridge and lugs. PAM 1661 is one of Luminor models that have a forged carbon case, it has a 44mm case diameter and is measured to be 18.5mm in thickness, which is much thicker than some Submersible watches, I do not know why VS factory has to build it so thick, it may affect the comfort of wearing. However, the color usage on dial and nylon strap strikes my eyes, which also makes this Luminor carbon watch looks more modern. There are four selling points on this replica, forged carbon case, strong lume light on dial, top quality movement and interchangable strap.

PAM 127 Replica

7.XF PAM 127

One or two years ago, this Panerai watch should rank top five, there were also a lot of factories that have produced replica PAM 127, including Noob, ZF and XF, however, in 2020, you can not get a PAM 127 replica from these factories above, it was out of stock. In the second half year of 2020, XF brought it back to us, we are very happy, because PAM 127 really has a big amount of need in our market.

PAM 968 Replica

8.VSF Submersible Bronzo PAM 968

Compared with PAM 382, this bronze Panerai PAM 968 looks more uniform in style, bronze case to match brown ceramic bezel and brown dial with brown leather strap, it looks perfect in color combination. The replica watch features a see-through crystal back, with a Super Clone P.9010 automatic movement inside, VS factory also offers one free pair of green rubber straps for this watch.

PAM 111 Replica

9.Noob PAM 111 V11

You can not even imagine how popular this watch is when it was just released in our market, and now the latest version comes to V11, we can see there are still a big amount of need for this replica watch. When Noob firstly launched this replica several years ago, it really shocked us and was a star product at that time. If you are still looking for a handwound Panerai replica watch, I think PAM 111 is still the best choice, seeing from the crystal back, the ETA 6497 movement looks really nice, having been updated for years, it is the best clone ETA 6497.

PAM 688 Replica

10.VSF PAM 688

It is a replica Panerai watch which VS factory published in 2017, however, it is still one of the best sellers. From Luminor GMT line, PAM 688 is 42mm in case diameter, this size is acceptable to more people. Different from other PAMs that are usually with black dial and black leather strap, PAM 688 is entirely in blue color, with hands in rose gold tone. The polishing on round bezel is highly contrast with the brushing on crown bridge. The most important is the GMT hand works the same ways as genuine watch. Now, the latest version of this PAM 688 replica comes to V2.

Besides these watches above, I think there will be a top ten list in the heart of every one, a lot of other Panerai replica watches are also sold very well, but we need to admit that the best ones are almost produced by VS factory. If you are interested in any PAM above, please contact me, I can also send you all Panerai models that are currently available in our market.

Top Six Best Selling Replica Panerai

1.Noob PAM 127

Both Noob and V6 factory made this watch, Noob is the earliest factory that researched Asia ETA 6497 movement in our market, and PAM 127 made by Noob is indeed has the Asia 6497 movement that is closest to genuine. Why didn’t I put PAM 111 first? Because the domed sapphire crystal adds points to this watch. Many people are willing to choose PAM 127 as their first Panerai watch also due to its domed crystal face. The watch has a see-through crystal back, but do not worry, this won’t be a big tell for the replica, because the movement has a very close decoration to genuine ETA 6497. Fitted with a brown leather strap, which feels very soft to wear. PAM 127 is absolutely a good combination of classic and vintage.

2. VSF PAM 438

The most popular ceramic Panerai watch in our market. The latest version is the one made by VS factory, with super clone P.9001 automatic movement. Please notice, be sure to choose the one with super clone P.9001 movement, VS factory just developed this movement, it was independently researched by VSF, the movement has the correct balance wheel position at 7 o’clock, so check the movement through crystal back, you won’t find any flaws. PAM 438 is an entire ceramic watch, from case and bracelet, the watch is made of real black ceramic, in brushed finish. Super texture and wearing comfort, the watch will never be out of date.

3. VSF PAM 441

Yes, VS factory almost replicated each Panerai model. They have the most complete collection of replica Panerai watches. PAM 441 is another hot selling ceramic PAM from VSF. Like PAM 438, PAM 441 from VSF is also made of real black ceramic on case, the watch is equipped with super clone P.9001 movement that is independently developed by VSF. It is a real GMT watch, the GMT hand on the dial can work the same way as genuine. By the way, the dial features a Flush Cannon Pinion like genuine. Brown ASSO leather band is distressed and is a perfect match for this brushed black ceramic watch.

4. VSF PAM 382

Is PAM 382 the first Panerai watch made with Bronze material? I think it is. And the replica version from VS factory now is upgraded to V2 edition. ZF factory also made this watch, but because VSF has their own super clone P.9000 installed in this watch, so I think the best PAM 382 is made by VSF. Bronze case and green dial perfectly match with each other, both are the biggest selling points of this watch. When PAM 382 was firstly introduced in our market, it soon became the best-selling diver’s watch at that time. With a distressed brown leather strap, PAM 382 brings a lot of wearing fun for our Panerai fans.

5. Noob PAM 111

The latest PAM 111 from Noob is V5 edition. Some people think that PAM 111 should rank first place in this list, it deserves if it was five years ago. However, PAM 111 is still the first choice for many beginners, due to its simple dial design and functions, the replica watch could be made to be 99% the same as genuine, besides, PAM 111 from Noob factory also has a less repairing rate than other PAMs.

6. VSF PAM 688

PAM 688, also coming from VS factory. The latest version is V2. Upgraded from V1, now the watch has been equipped with a super clone P.9001 movement. Based on V1, PAM 688 V2 has the movement greatly improved. Now you can adjust the date through hour hand only, GMT is 12-hour, not 24. The movement is slimmer, so the whole case looks thinner, more close to genuine case. PAM 688 is also the first Panerai watch I saw, blue dial and blue leather strap, making the watch look fresh among so many black PAMs.

KW Factory Best Replica Panerai Luminor GMT Ceramica PAM 438 Review

PAM 438 Wrist Shot

PAM 438 Wrist Shot 2

KW is a factory that was opened by the Turks in Guangzhou, China. This factory specilizes in manufacturing good quality Panerai replicas, now there are a lot of PAMs replicas made by KW, including the PAM 441 replica I reviewed before, PAM 441 is a ceramic Panerai watch but it is not a full ceramic watch like PAM 438. KW PAM 438 is replicated according to genuine watch, the size and other details are all 1:1 cloned, you can not find too many flaws on this replica.

Replica Panerai Luminor GMT Ceramica

Replica Panerai PAM 438

When I first had this watch, it feels a little heavy, the watch weighs about 115g. I feel its high quality texture but its ceramic material makes it lighter than other PAMs made of stainless steel. In my opinion, ceramic has a lot of advantage, such as refined texture, scratch resistance and not fade. PAM 438 is 44mm in case diameter, like PAM 441, the bezel, case head and case back of PAM 438 all use screw-down structure, this will create convenience for wearers who want to clean dial sometimes.

PAM 438 Crown

The front and back crystal are sapphire, which has a great hardness and high scratch resistant performance. Under crystal, the dial looks very clear, especially under sun light, the dial is still clearly readable. The texture of black dial echoes with the black ceramic case. The dial uses classic sandwiched structure like genuine watch, the upper disc is hollow out and the disc on bottom is covered with durable luminous material. Such dial design makes the hour markers look more three-dimensional.

PAM 438 Ceramic Case

By the way, the ceramic crown bridge has corners polished round and smooth, which guarantees a good wearing comfort.

PAM 438 Sandwiched Dial

About movement, PAM 438 replica watch uses black movement, its reference is P.9001/B. To build an all black watch, to achieve such a concept, Panerai developed this blackened P.9001/B movement. KW factory used a shanghai 7750 to clone this movement, DLC plated movement bridges make P.9001/B the best looking movement in all Panerai replicas.

The bracelet is full ceramic made except the black steel deployant clasp. Actually there are still a lot of things needed to be talked on this replica, and it is indeed one of the best-selling PAM replicas in our market, I hope you guys could tell me what’s your opinion about this watch if you have ever bought it. Now the only ceramic watch I still keep in my collection is PAM 438, I love it.

VS Factory Replica Panerai PAM 441 Ceramica Watch with Super Clone P.9001

Panerai Ceramica Replica

Panerai PAM 441 GMT Replica

PAM 441 Ceramic Case

Recently, VS factory released their latest and best edition of replica Panerai Luminor PN441 Ceramica watch, what makes it the best edition? First of all is that Clone P.9001 movement which is same the per genuine, and so do all the functions. I will talk about its function details in the following. Second, the shape and material has no difference with original. Maybe it will be better for me to introduce it step by step in details.

PAM 441 Crown Bridge

PAM 441 Pre-V Buckle

The 44*18mm case size is a normal one for such a sporty watch, its material is high quality ceramic. The good thing of this material is that its color never change, you know other replica editions which is made of stainless steel with black coating, its color will fade. I can feel its good texture and quality very well while I am holding it in my hands. On the black dial, let’s see the small hand with luminous triangle, don’t make a mistake to think this is the second needle, actually this is for showing GMT time. The second shows on the sub-dial at 9:00 position, its second needles looks like a torpedo as per genuine, also this design inspiration comes from ocean which Panerai use a lot. The two long luminous hands are showing hour and minute together with luminous numeral and dot remarks. There is date indicator at 3:00 position. All the above functions can be adjusted via this classic Panerai crown. First we have to pull out the upper crown lock, if you push the crown directly it is manually winding the power, you can use this one when there is no enough automatic swing on wrist. The crown can be pull it out at two levels, the first one you can adjust the time, the second level the date and GMT can be adjust, turn it around to upper side is for the date, and the down side is for GMT. When everything is done, push the lock back to original place.

Super Clone P.9001

Cal.P9001

Other parts, like the front glass is made of dome sapphire crystal with colorless AR coating, and the strap is made of real leather like per original. From the back display case, we can see the details of this clone P.9001 movement, which is really hard to tell the difference between the original.
