Picture 1
- The first impression from the front view clearly shows that the VS has a more transparent mirror.

Picture 2
- Calendar comparison: VS and AR have magnification levels closer to the genuine product, the Clean calendar appears slightly larger, and the AR calendar's font printing is a bit rough.

Picture 3
- Dial comparison: The font colours of VS and AR are closer to the genuine product, while Clean's font colour is darker and greyer.

Picture 4
- Comparison of the red GMT hands:
the red on the AR and Clean is darker,the VS is brighter, and the VS is closest to the genuine product.

Picture 5
- The minute and second hands from all three factories have no obvious differences. VS has a solid centre pin(which is more noticeable when viewed directly from the dial's perspective), AR's solid centre pin is too prominent, and Clean did not make a solid centre pin.

Picture 6
- Comparison of the dogtooth ring, the arrows indicate a subtle difference between the three factories, which is also an improvement of the VS factory compared to other versions on the market.

Picture 7 and 8
- Comparing the inner side of the case,the engraving depth and clarity of the VS are the best among the three. From this angle, it can also be seen that the notch shape of the Clean's dog-toothcircle is too large, while the VS and AR are identical.

Picture 9
- Comparison of the engravings on the watch strap head: the VS engraving is clean, with no blackening of the letters, and the AR is relatively good,while the Clean engraving has blackened letters.

Picture 10
- The treatment of the mirror edge, VS is the only one that matches the standard, AR and Clean both havenoticeable rounded transitions.

Picture 11 and 12
- Comparing the case backs, VS has the most fitting case back among the three factories. AR and Clean both have a certain degree of protrusion,while in terms of thickness, VS is completely consistent with the genuine product.

Picture 13
- The latest VS Coke bezel has also been improved in terms of the crown details. After locking the crown, there is a slight gap between the crown and the case, preventing the crown from rubbing against the case. The VS factory claims that this detail is consistent with the genuine product.
Clean and AR did not make this detail.

Picture 14
- VS and Clean are both Dandong 3285 movements. There are no significant differences in the movement details.
Clean's movement has more rotor bearing balls, resulting in less rotornoise.
