Replica 15500 Grey APS vs VS

VS Factory has published the AP 15500 for weeks, I wrote a review about this watch at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/12/29/vsf-ap-15500/, today, I want to make a comparison review on the 15500 grey model between APS and VS.

I did not see the genuine watch, I do not know which one is closer to genuine watch, I think both are very good replicas.

First, dial color.

The left watch is from APS, the right watch is from VS. Both have grey dial. The grey color on APS 15500 looks slightly darker. And at some angles, the light reflection looks stronger on the dial of APS 15500.

Second, hour markers and hands. Check the two pictures below. Both watches have very good polishing on the hands and hour markers. On APS 15500, the hour markers feature wider luminous material, the white luminescence on the hour markers of VS looks narrower.

Third, date font. Look at the date font below. APS 15500 has a pure white date font that looks slightly thicker. VS 15500 has a warm white date font. The axis of hands looks different, it is solid on both watches, but I like the solid axis on VS more.

Fourth, the first link. Are you able to find the difference on the first link? The two pictures below, first watch is from APS, second watch is from VS. On VS 15500, there is a bigger gap between the first link and the main case. So you can feel the first link and even the entire steel bracelet are more flexible on VS 15500. Because of this, the case of VS 15500 maybe fit your wrist more comfortably.

By the way, like I mentioned before, the bracelet of APS 15500 has 24 links, which has one more link than VS. If you have a big wrist, maybe APS 15500 is a better choice.

Fifth, the comparison of AP logo on the clasp.

APS.

VS.

Sixth, the movement. The following pictures show the SH4302 movement from APS, this is the latest SH4302 with free-sprung balance, APS just released. It features weights. The auto rotor is rose gold, but that sculpture AP looks yellow gold.

The following pictures show the movement DD4302 from VS. It is not real free-sprung movement even you do not see the regulator. There are no weights on the balance. But the golden tone of the auto rotor is better.

I never thought that VS Factory will make Audemars Piguet replica watches, but in last week, they announced that they will make Audemars Piguet 15500, and now, the watch is available, two models just arrived, grey dial and blue dial, later, they will also publish white dial version and black dial version.

I do not know why VS Factory enters the Audemars Piguet market, I also don’t understand why VS factory doesn’t expand production capacity for Rolex, given that demand still far exceeds supply. Do they perhaps think that no other factory can be their competitor in the replica Rolex field? This is true, even Victory Factory, which has the Rolex replicas that have the closest quality to previous Clean Rolex, will not be their match. However, they need to consider their consumers and shouldn’t make their orders wait that long.

About the replica Audemars Piguet 15500, absolutely APS factory made the best one in the past, but if being compared with the one from VS, I do not know which one is better, like I said before, the super clone from different factories has their own advantages. APS made many improvements on the dial of the AP 15500 before, especially on the grey dial version, the AP 15500 with grey dial from APS Factory is considered to be the best one with the closest dial color to the genuine. Now many dealers claim that VS makes a better dial than APS, I do not believe this, this is the first time for VS Factory to make Audemars Piguet replica watch, it is impossible to make this AP perfect on the first try and beat the APS factory, just like a few years ago when APS challenged ZF in the Audemars Piguet field, it took several years for APS to defeat ZF and become the top player in the AP domain.

VS developed a new movement for their AP 15500, not the one used by APS, the clone 4302 by VS is from DD, while the 4302 by APS is from SH. The 4302 movement used by VS is not free-sprung balance, but the 4302 with real free-sprung balance from APS will be in stock soon, APS Factory just annouced this project. So, in a short period, the 15500 from APS is still the first choice for many customers. About the stability of the movement, the DD4302 from VS will have a good stability, but the SH4302 from APS also has been tested for many years, it is very stable.

News from the market

It is nearly the end of year 2025, I will make time to summarize and discuss the best-selling replica watches in this year. Today, let us see what’s happening in the market recently.

First, it is about VS Factory. They are selling their Panerai watches at special prices, it seems like they are clearing the Panerai inventory to free up production capacity for Rolex, after all, their Rolex replica watches are currently in short supply, especially their Daytona and V2 Datejust.

What is VS Factory doing?

Their focus has shifted to Rolex, this is a great move, with the closure of Clean, they are already the biggest boss in this industry, they continued to improve the quality of their Rolex replica watches, especially the quality of the Daytona, Datejust and Day-Date. Now the Daytona has come to V3 edition, the Datejust and Day-Date have come to V2 edition. Daytona and Day-Date are increased weight version, while the Datejust from them has much better finishes than the ones made by other factories. The Panerai is not their improtant project, after all, the money they earned by selling Rolex in this year has exceeded the money earned from selling Panerai in the past several years.

What new watches VS Factory will bring to us next?

These new Seamaster and Railmaster have already been available.

This Seamaster has a 41mm case diameter, with black ceramic bezel, the dial is turquoise.

The three new models above are in 38mm, one is Railmaster, the other two are Seamaster. They are equipped with super clone 8800 movement.

New faces

Recently, some new factories appeared, first, it is the Clean Plus, we discussed this factory before, they are not the real Clean Factory, but the quality of their Rolex replica watches is very close to that of the Rolex made by previous Clean before. Just in last week, a new factory appeared, its name is Victory, we also call it V, or VF. Many dealers have talked about this factory and reviewed their watches, they said this is real Clean, and now they are providing customers with many replicas of Rolex watches, including Datejust, Daytona, GMT-Master II and the titanium YachtMaster. Look at the pictures below.

Having checked the titanium YachtMaster watch from Victory, it is exactly the same one made by Clean before, because the watch also has two key features that are the same as the one from Clean, first, its bracelet links are connected with ceramic tube. Second, its ceramic bezel has the same finish as the bezel on previous Clean, Clean Plus also has made this titanium YachtMaster, but its bezel is not as good as the one on the Victory.

VSF Daytona Yellow Gold Green Dial V3

This is the latest V3 edition of Daytona 116508 made by VS Factory, which was published in last month, I just got this watch. Before V3, VS has published the regular weight version and V2 increased weight version of this Daytona, the V2 has a weight of about 160 grams, this V3 is heavier, which is 181 grams. Besides the weight, VS factory also made other improvements on this replica watch. This Daytona is also made by BT and ZF, but not as good as this V3 from VS.

On V2, VS increased the weight of the case, on this V3, some people said VS added extra weight on the bracelet, but I think they have not. As far as I know, the main weight is added on the case and movement holder. The inner material of the case is mostly likely the tungsten steel, although VS has never publicly admitted it. Some factory added too much weight on the case back, the result is the case has been thickened, but on this V3 version, the case thickness is still 12mm.

On this V3, the factory also improves the golden color on the whole watch, the gold tone looks very close to that of the 18K yellow gold on the genuine watch. Also on the dial, the green color is also improved, it does not look too bright, when you swing the watch, the sunburst finish on the dial looks greenish-gold. The solid central shaft of the hands is very close to that of the genuine watch.

On the case, there is another place which I think is better than the one made by other factories, that’s the engravings on the back of the lugs. Some factories use too much tungsten steel in the case when making this Daytona, and when they make the engravings on the lugs, they can not make the engravings so clear and clean. However on this V3 Daytona from VS Factory, the engravings on the back of the lugs look very clear and clean, without any blurring, especially the Dog’s Head hallmark. Anyway, these lugs’ engravings are much better finished by VS Factory.

Conclusion

This V3 Daytona from VS is 181 grams, genuine watch is about 205 grams to 208 grams, so there is still about 25 grams weight difference. Some other factories make this watch with a heavier weight, which is more than 210 grams, but weight does not mean everything, we need to check the other details, while the overall finish on this replica Rolex Daytona from VS is much better, so I think VS is the best choice for this Daytona.

On the picture above, this is a section of links I removed from a Day-Date made by some factory, the Day-Date and Daytona made by them have the heaviest weight, but the links on the bracelet are not good, you can clearly see the crack and the links are not fully plated with gold. You need to be very careful when choose a high-end replica Rolex watch with increased weight.

The Panerai watches from VS Factory are now on sale, many models from them have special prices. It is not hard to imagine, because VS Factory is now focusing its main efforts on Rolex, and wants to clear inventory for some less popular Panerai models as soon as possible. This is a good news for Panerai fans who want high quality replicas, as you know, in the market, only VS Factory makes super clone Panerai. By the way, the Rolex from VS Factory currently is very hot, especially the Rolex Datejust and GMT-Master, often in out-of-stock status.

Today, I want to share the pictures of a new Omega Seamaster watch from VS Factory, they published it in last week, now the watch is available. Unlike the Seamaster No Time to Die, this Seamaster watch is made with stainless steel in case and mesh bracelet.

The left one is the new arrival watch, the right one is the V4 Seamaster No Time to Die, both from VS Factory. The left watch is made with stainless steel, the right watch is fully made with Titanium. Clearly the left stainless steel watch looks much brighter. Which one do you like more?

The new Seamaster watch has a weight of 151.6 grams.

The V4 Seamaster No Time to Die has a weight of 98 grams.

The black dial is sanded finish.

The latest super clone 8806 movement from VS.

The dial printings use letterpress, the font is slightly raised.

Datejust

2 Replies

A Rolex Datejust is a must-have watch, its design is simple, yet timeless, to attend a formal occasion, a Rolex Datejust is necessary to make you look more mature and refined. In replica watch industry, you are looking for the best replica Rolex, I also highly recommend a Datejust, I thought Submariner is the best replica, but now I think it should be Datejust, it does not have the same hard-to-copy bezel as the Submariner, which is a common issue for the replicas. On a Datejust, especially the one made by VS Factory, every detail has become perfect from outside to inside movement. Now, for the people who are finding 41mm Datejust, I must say VS Factory makes the best ones.

The appearance of Clean Plus has convinced many that Clean has returned, actually they are only using some parts that were used on Clean watches before, not all of them, and they have not tracked down all the suppliers that produced watch components for Clean in the past, but Clean Plus is quietly making improvements on their models, for example, the end links of the bracelet is now more solidly attached to the case, not that flexible on the first batch of Datejust they released. I think Clean Plus watches are also very good, this factory will be a strong competitor to VS in future.

Currently one of the hottest replica watches is the V2 Datejust from VS, now with the new-arrival Datejust with grey Diamond dial, they have seven models, please check the following pictures.

I introduced the V2 Datejust from VS Factory before, please check my post at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/08/18/vs-factory-datejust-v2/. There are two important differences between V1 and V2, which lie in the weight and bezel finish. For the new gray Datejust with diamond markers, VS Factory claims that they use moissanite on the hour markers, the moissanites are visually very similar to real diamonds. The weight of this diamond Datejust is 134 grams, Clean Plus also has this Datejust, whose weight if 129 grams.

Diamond Datejust VS vs Clean Plus — The date font is thicker on the Datejust from Clean Plus.

The clasp engraving on Clean Plus, it is “ORV”, the same as that on VS. But the engraving is too shallow.

On VS Clasp, the engraving is thicker and deeper. The clasp engraving is also an important part to identify if the Datejust is made by VS, please check my article to know more, https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/10/20/how-to-know-if-your-datejust-is-from-vs-factory/.

Currently there are two big things in the market, first, it is about the Clean Plus factory. Second, it is about VS factory, which is their Rolex watches are too hot, often out of stock, people who are going to order their Rolex especially Datejust usually need to wait. After the closure of Clean, VS published V2 Datejust 2, which helped them dominate this market immediately, for people who want the best Datejust 2, I also recommend VS.

Before the closure of Clean, I said this factory has started to use the DD3235 movement in their Datejust, it is a new DD3235 that has 27 bearing balls, now VS also uses this new DD3235 movement in their Datejust 2, many dealers saying the new DD3235 is much better than the old version when they promoting VS watches, so this brings a problem, which is a lot of customers then insist on buying the watch with that new movement, however, VS factory hasn’t actually used this new movement in every watch, both the old and new movement are randomly used, and both movements have the same quality in my opinion.

The VS Datejust is so hot, some dealers deceive customers by selling them other factories Datejust as VS Factory models, to avoid being scammed, today I will show you a feature of the clasp on VS Datejust to help tell if the watch is from VS.

Please use a magnifier to observe the letter “A” on the engravings of the clasp.

On VS Datejust, the letter “A” in word “GENEVA” and “MADE” has a flat top. The letter “E” in “MADE”, its middle bar is slightly shorter than the top and bottom ones.

On the clasp of the Datejust from other factory, the engravings look somewhat shallow, and the letter “A” has a more pointed top.

Rolex SA — This is the engraving of “ROLEXS.A.” on VS Datejust.

It is our National Day holiday, which will end on October 8th, but the factories will accept orders after today. In these days, one thing mostly discussed in the watch market is that Clean Factory has been back to the business, they changed a new name, which is Clean Plus, did you buy from them? I heard that this is not the same factory as before, at least the watch assemblers are not the same ones that served in Clean before, so the quality may not be the same. In recent days, many new models appeared in the market, most of them are from APS, including the Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin, which is a new model from JLC, AZ Facyory made the old model before, now APS published the replica, which is equipped with the same super clone 938, the watch looks great, the case thickness is close to that of genuine, the functions on the replica also work, but I do not suggest you buy it, because the movement stability is not improved, it is the only replica watch with super clone movement which I do not recommend, when I introduced the story of APS Factory, I mentioned this movement, it has a high repairing rate.

This watch look really nice, it is said that the 938 movement in genuine watch is also not very stable, is that correct? Is there anyone here that has bought the genuine watch?

Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Replica Watch

The left stainless steel watch looks classic, but I like the rose gold one more on the right.

Replica Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Stainless Steel

Jaeger LeCoultre Master Ultra Thin Power Reserve

In original position, you can rotate the crown to wind the watch, I just did this, I winded, please notice the small hand on the power reserve indicator at 10:00, it moves from 1/4 to 1/2. No need to fully wind the watch because when you wear the watch on your hand, the auto rotor will move to gain energy.

At 2:00 on the case, there is a button for you to push with a tool to adjust the date, which is displayed on the round small dial at 2 o’clock. The factory offers that tool for free.

On the replica, the engravings on the movement plates look shallow, not deeply engraved.

Whether the stainless steel model or the rose gold model, they are all equipped with a calfskin leather band with quick release system. The band feels a little bit stiff, but you can buy and replace with a genuine aligator leather band. The stainless steel watch comes with a deployant clasp.

The rose gold watch comes with a pin buckle.

On the central hour hand and minute hand, there are two sides, one is polished, the other is matte finished.

The second news is about V7, some people said it got raided on September 30th, but some people said they are fine, they still offer watches.

The third news is about VS. This factory has been very busy after the closure of Clean, their business is booming, now in mens Rolex Datejust field, the boss is VS, no others can compete with them especially the V2 came out.

V2 Datejust from VS has six models now, including the blue, green, gray, black, green rome and the blue one with rome markers.

The plastic bag on V2 Datejust now has an elephant sticker.

Each watch will come with a card, which is upgraded, with a golden edge now.

There are also other features about the new V2 Datejust from VS, I introduced them before, please check them at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/08/18/vs-factory-datejust-v2/.

Clean

Leave a reply

This is the last time for me to discuss Clean Factory on my blog, like I mentioned on my previous article, I said Clean will not be back, yes, this is true. So, do not trust anyone in this industry who said he can get you the watches from Clean, or you will be scammed.

I have given introduction of many watch manufacturers here, like ZF, AR, VS, APS, etc., I think many of you guys also have read the stories of Clean Factory I published here at https://www.susanreviews.com/2023/09/29/why-did-clean-factory-get-a-success-so-quickly/ and https://www.susanreviews.com/2024/02/17/the-development-of-clean-factory/. Clean indeed has a glorious history and also has made too many great watches for us, now let us see how this watch manufacturer started and then how it fell.

There are many clock malls in Zhanxi of Guangzhou, they had a very good business before, there were a big traffic in the past, everyone came there to get good luxury products such as watches, bags, bracelets, perfume, etc. In 2016 or 2017, a person came to Zhanxi and sold watches, at the beginning, he made the replicas of Nomos, at that time, the workshop he opened even did not have a name. Later he made Roger Dubuis Excalibur and Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, so the first product in Clean’s history is not the green Submariner 116610LV. But facing the competition of Noob in replica Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, he could not make enough money by just selling Nomos, Roger Dubuis and other unpopular watches.

He wanted to make Rolex, but at that time, Noob and AR are the boss in this area, it is hard to compete with them, however, the Rolex Submariner from both Noob and AR also has flaws, especially the bezel of the hulk Submariner 116610LV, which does not have correct green color, the pearl is too white and the bezel markers easily become black, he noticed these issues and turned to make the ceramic bezel, on the first batch of the ceramic bezel made for the Submariner, the platinum filling on the markers finally does not discolor anymore, at this time, Clean was born and only made watch parts like ceramic bezel and dial.

After being promoted, many people bought the Submariner from AR Factory, and then replaced its bezel and dial with the bezel and dial from Clean. After selling the watch parts for a period, he made the Submariner by himself, and he sold the watch under the name “ZZ”, but the Submariner from ZZF still could not compete with AR and Noob. At the same time, Clean also made the bezel for the Daytona.

ZZ continued to improve their Submariner and updated it to V3 edition, with SH3135 movement inside, but they are facing another strong competitor VS Factory, whose Submariner comes with better DD3135 movement inside. At that time, Noob has updated the Submariner to V12 and AR has updated it to V3, ZZ could not compete with Noob, AR and VS.

In April 2021, Noob got raided and closed, AR and VS were also affected. People had no where to get the Daytona, some dealers who still had Noob Daytona watches in stock sold them at high prices, watch fans needed to pay over $1110 to get a Noob Daytona, this is a ridiculous price, but people had no choice. Clean seized the opportunity and inherited the DD4130 movement from Noob, in the end of 2021, Clean published the Daytona with DD4130, the price is a bit higher than previous Noob Daytona but finally returned to be normal. After being published, their Daytona watches were immediately sold out, Clean succeeded. During the closing period of AR and VS, the stock of ZZ Submariner also sold out very quickly, after that they sold both Daytona and Submariner under name Clean. During that period, Clean also got the DD3135 movement and updated their Submariner.

One success builds upon another. Next Clean developed the DD3285 movement and published the super clone GMT-Master II, this become another best seller, now Clean nearly dominated the market of super clone Rolex, VS has been back to the business and still had a certain market share because they have DD3235 movement, many people bought VS Datejust. So in next years before the closure of Clean, it was the competition between Clean and VS in Rolex field, before Clean completed the replacement of the SH3235 with DD3235 in their Datejust, this factory got raided and closed. Now, who is the boss in super clone Rolex field? Absolutely…, you know it.

VS Factory Daytona

Leave a reply

Clean Factory will not be back.

I always think Clean has the best Daytona replicas, unfortunately they have been closed forever. Now the best factory to get a super clone Daytona is VS, most dealers and reviewers said their Daytona is better than Clean, I do not think so, Clean has some details that are better finished. And there is another factory that has good quality Daytona replicas, we almost forget it, this factory is BT.

A new factory has appeared in the market recently, it is UFO, which is a tacky name. They made the replica Daytona 126500, some readers here have asked me about this factory, now I told you do not buy the Daytona from UFO, they claimed that they use the clone 4131 movement with free-sprung balance, that’s a good selling point, but no one knows the stability of this movement, by the way, I have checked the finish on the watch, it is not as good as that of VS Factory Daytona, not to mention in comparison with Clean. And their price is too expensive. Please check the pictures of the UFO Daytona below.

Now VS Factory holds the majority of the market share for the Daytona, while BT Factory holds a small market share for the Daytona. VS Factory is still improving the quality of the Daytona, mainly in increasing the weight of the watch, last time several months ago, I already introduced the first batch of the Daytona watches with increased weight on my blog, please check at https://www.susanreviews.com/2025/03/24/vs-factory-heavy-weight-daytona/. Today, I will make a summary of the Daytona replica watches which VS Factory is selling.

First, the Daytona with 4801 movement, which has the most affordable price, please check the movement picture below, it is a naked 4801 without any decoration.

Second, the Daytona with 4130 movement made by VS Factory. There are totally nine models. The 116500 Daytona white and black models, the weight is about 140 grams. The 116518 yellow gold, 116519 gray dial and116506 ice blue three models have V1 and V2 increased weight options. The V2 edition only has weight gained on the case.

Third, the Daytona with 4131 movement made by VS, please check the pictures below. We can see that the Daytona models with rubber band have been upgraded to V2, which has gain weight on the case. These Daytona replicas, whose genuine models are made with precious metals, now have been upgraded to V3, the V3 edition has gain weight both on the case and bracelet. I measured the weight of the V3, please check the last picture, it is about

Conclusion

1.VS has three types of Daytona selling at the same time, the one with 4801 movement, the Daytona with regular weight, the Daytona with increased weight.

2.For the latest V3 edition, VS Factory adds weight both on the case and bracelet, but the watch feels very comfortable when wearing on hand, not like the Daytona made by other factories that has been added too much weight on the case, the case head is too heavy, causing it to feel like it’s slipping down when wearing.

3.Up to now, no one has reported any cases of the peeling off issue on the increased weight Daytona from VS Factory.

I do hope VS Factory continues to improve the dial quality of their Daytona, such as the hands finish, or a new factory will appear in the market to replace Clean’s position to compete with VS, I would like to see.
