VSF Releases Daytona 126500 （Equipped with Dandong 4131 beta）

[steve_theonewatches]

VSF will soon release the new Daytona 126500，Still published as SBF，The factory promotional image claims to feature a beta version of the Dandong 4131, which is believed to be the initial version of the movement, but whether or not it is a true clone of 4131 has yet to be verified by the factory once it is released. In the meantime, according to the publicity, there should be an updated official version in the future.

Thanks

There is no perfect replica, only the one you prefer.

Fantastic!!!

Hooray! Hooray! Another factory putting its development budget into the umpteenth Daytona and launching it for 750+! As if we didn't have enough of those already.

Vsf is making Daytonas now? Curious to see the if they’re actually making a dd4131. Clean nailed the 126500

This version seems to come with 4801 movement as per this WeChat dealer.

Guess VSF got bored of submariners and datejusts. Hopefully it won’t have a 4801 movement….

Sl 4801 is non skeletonized

Ok, for this price this could be a nice release.

The black dial looks good.

The 4801/02 is a manual wind right? isn't this the same movement Sugess use in their Daytona homage?

No its a full automatic vertical clutch column wheel chronograph with 50hr power reserve

Unidirexrional winding

Around $300usd is an insane price

Interesting, not sure why I thought it was a manual wind. Are these movements reliable? If they are, this could be a great alternative to the Clean variant at a very competitive price point even with the lack of a clone movement.

It's crazy to think that we could be seeing a Daytona rep with a fully functional chrono, from a solid factory (although unproven in Daytona reps) for a lower price than the likes of ARF back in 2020/2021 which used the timebomb A7750 and was thicker than gen.

Yes it's a chinese legal clone of the 4130, fairly reliable, in fact, I would argue it's better than the 4130 other than the rotor, because, if it breaks, hop on Aliexpress, buy a Sugess watch for $400 bucks and you got a new movement that's exactly the same (with some extra fancy bits)

I actually own the ADGF with the SL-4802 variant and it's probably the watch I run the chrono the most on, there's no issue with it

For $300 I'd rather get this than the Clean variant, I think the Clean variant is worth it if you daily wear but this is just at 2000 yuan is too good of a price.....

But this is the price for the Chinese market ... TDs will have a (much) higher price ;-)

I imagine TD price will be in the $450-500 range, none-TDs more like $400 ish
