Rolex GMT Master II Batman 126710 BLNR by VSF factory
VSF Factory is another popular factory known for producing high-end replica watches, and I am going to review one of their highly-rated Rolex GMT Master II Batman 126710 BLNR models by sharing the flaws and giving my thoughts at the end of this review. The watch uses an SA3285 movement, which is similar to the genuine movement but still has some differences. This movement is not compatible with genuine parts and is not considered a 1-to-1 clone, so the movement parts slightly differ from the genuine. I will reference the seller at the end of this review.
Flaw 1
The clasp’s Rolex logo engraving differs on both watches. VSF’s engraving is a tad bigger than the genuine, and the positioning is slightly off too. Not to mention, the metal finishes differ in terms of reflectiveness and smoothness. The genuine metal finish is smooth to the eyes and has better light reflection.
Flaw 2
This common flaw is the color gradient transition on the bezel. The transition at the 6 and 18 marks is not smooth on VSF compared to the genuine, and the reflection and finishes are dull on VSF too.
Flaw 3
The hour markers’ bezel finishes and the inner color differ on both watches. As shown in the images above, VSF factory markers’ bezel is not well-polished and rough on the edges compared to the genuine. Moreover, the inner color on VSF factory is pale white, while the genuine is a paper white color.
Flaw 4
The crystal on the side view differs on both watches. VSF’s crystal is extruded out, while the genuine is flat and aligned with the bezel. This flaw isn’t a red flag and is not visible to the naked eye.
Flaw 5
Pay attention to the hour and minute hands; VSF’s hands differ in terms of color and edge smoothness. The genuine hand has better light reflection too.
Flaw 6
Zooming back to the bezel, the font engraving differs on both watches. VSF’s font engraving is thinner than the genuine, and the dot engraving is smaller than the genuine too. This is a bit concerning as this flaw can be easily spotted with the naked eye. You can opt to replace the bezel to increase the similarities between the replica and genuine.
Conclusion
The VSF Rolex GMT Master II Batman 126710 BLNR is indeed a top-tier watch, and there are two main concerns. The movement is not a 1-to-1 match compared to the genuine, and the parts aren’t replaceable with genuine parts. The next concern is the bezel engraving, which is a bit concerning due to the font size and dot size. Despite this flaw, I believe this watch is still one of the best I have come across and it would be a good addition to your collection if you do not mind the movement differences. As always, peace out and stay vibey. Cheers!
