Yes we know it's not real liquid metal. Do you know if they are working on a V3 that will look like it?
I will sure buy the bezel.

No idea about this...LOL we can wait and see who will do that.

Hello guys,

i'd like to buy the same model : planet ocean 43.5mm with 8900 movement.
Which factory is the best replica for this model ? VFS? Noob? BPF? and why is it better than others?
is this model considered as first class super rep?

thanks a lot for your help

Definitely the VSF. The built quality is amazing and after service the movement is running like hell.

Mine starts to tick after taking the watch out of the case- without winding.

Only flaw are the numbers on the bezel - gen is plain, written in liquid metal.

ok thanks a lot for your help
how many years the movement can work without any issue ? does it need a preventive maintenance as lubrification?
i'm willing to use the watch about 3 or 4 days per month

i also heard about a flaw that the orange writing "seamaster" get faded with VFS

Received QC pics today and accepted. Running slow by about 5 secs/day and passed PT’s pressure test. Can’t wait to see it in person because this teaser looks epic!

Movement is really dry when delivered and should get some oil love.

When serviced it will run for many years - you should not Carry about.

The orange seamaster is not fading - only the black orange editions get faded at the orange bezel parts I think.

Mine just look perfect and wearing it really often

ok thanks for the information.

How do you get oil on the movment ? it should be done by a professional i suppose? will he accept to do it on a fake watch?
i dont understand why is it delivered dry by the factory.....

sorry for all this questions but thanks

On my VSF 8900 the crown has no “neutral” position, that means when I tighten the crown I’m also winding the movement. Is this normal?

I have had a VSF PO 43.5mm for half a year and wear it every day. According to my research, there is currently no better clone. Since I also have a genuine PO 42mm, I can say that the watch is the same as the original in terms of the quality of the case and the feel. Of course, the VSF Caliber is worlds away from the accuracy of the Omega, my genuine always runs +0.5s/d no matter what position and what I do, the VSF runs between -5/+5s/d but I think it's very good for a clone I. The functions of the Caliber have been well taken over with a separate hour hand adjustment, but the adjustment of the VSF is much too easy. What I don't like is that the bezel on the VSF is milled and therefore very different from the genuine at first glance, I hope there will be an update and I would buy it again. Unfortunately, the orange letters also lost color after a few months and turned pale, in contrast to the second hand, which kept the color as you can see on the picture. As I said, an update here would be great and worth a new purchase. But I'm also very happy with it and can recommend the VSF, the price-performance ratio is great, but it can't keep up with the VSF Rolexes, which are really 99% genuine at the moment.

I forgot to say that I also wear the watch for swimming and snorkeling and everything is ok. Here is a picture where it was new with the correct color.
