JVS Omega Seamaster 300m

[trustytime]

The JVS Omega Seamaster has been good and value for money. They are also known as the fake VSF in China because of their similar packaging like VSF.

The overall quality is quite close to VSF, with some extra attention to certain details, and finishing are also not bad.

Here are some pictures for your viewing and discussion.

These look really great, the 12 hour marker is also aligned.

Crystal looks very clear (good 2xAR), just like VSF. Im only afraid, that the hour markers look a little bit to greyish.. especially on the white dial

Many thanks for this clarification.

Hour marker surrounds look awful plus it suffers the same poor cg’s as VSF. Bezel number finish looks bad and sunken too. I see no point in this over the far superior ORF for not much more money! But each to their own!

Is anyone making aqua terras right now?

This looks as good as ORF with better AR than ORF.

This is my ORF. I beg to differ. JVS isn’t even close.

The one problem with ORF is AR and slightly too thick numbers on the bezel. But it’s a nice watch

That ORF looks pretty sharp.

Does the JVS version have the short crown protector issue that the VSF does?

Yes, and here the answer to your question was:

Plus, unbelievably, the new green one (aka Seaweed) has a red accent on the second hand, which it shouldn't have

Or not?

I received my JVS Seamaster (blue/white) a few days ago and have mixed feelings.

The overall quality is quite good. Especially when considering the price. I paid 315.- US$ incl. an additional rubber bracelet. The mirror is sapphire, but the glass on the back is just mineral.

The 12 hours markers are not perfectly aligned. The movement is beautiful and quite accurate. But do not know how to regulate the movement, as the usual method has no effect.

Turning the bezel is hard. I don't know what noise it should make, but it sounds not as pleasant as my VSF Rolex.

The stainless steel bracelet is massive and has a great finish. The overall weight is, as far as I know, exactly like the gen (187g).

Sometimes macro shots don't help, as most super clones are very close to the original and the differences are hard to see with the naked eye. However, it is often enough to feel a watch and immediately identify the fake. And here it is the rather sharp edges of the bracelet clasp that, although very well-made, betray the fake.

I mean you get what you pay for with JVS…ZF and VSF are the go to for a reason.

The money is worth it to go for the best in the long run than buying a cheap rep IMO…otherwise disappointing results you will have.

From the pictures I have posted above, it looks like that there are (at least) two different JVS SMP cases: the earliest one had short CG's (as VSF have), while the latest ones have longer CG's.
Which one did you receive?
Would you mind posting some pics? Thx

Used a rubber band of the Aqua Terra. Came with a stainless steel bracelet.

It looks like you have the latest case, with slightly longer CG's.
This blue/white version was supposed to be the Tokyo 2020 Olympic games edition, with some writings on the gen caseback - which are not there on your rep, isn't it?
I can feel your slight disappointment, which may also come from the AT rubber band, whose style has nothing to do with the SMP300.
Sourcing a SMP300 rep band (at ~ 20€) on AliX might help a bit.

But do not know how to regulate the movement, as the usual method has no effect.

This movement is supposed to be an A2824 with a deco plate covering it, so you first have to remove the plate to get access to the actual regulation system?

The watch came with a SS bracelet and an "original" rubber strap. I replaced it with the Aqua Terra strap.

Yes, correct.
