VSF Edition — Rubber Strap with Deployant Clasp
VSF’s iteration of the 43.5mm Planet Ocean remains the undisputed benchmark on enthusiast forums, largely due to its proprietary movement architecture and exact case geometry. Unlike earlier generations from rival factories that relied on decorated base calibers, this release achieves the correct crown height and helium escape valve alignment.
Powered by the VSF custom Caliber 8900, this mechanism replicates the independent jumping hour hand found in the genuine Co-Axial escapement. The twin-barrel design is visually accurate to the Master Chronometer METAS certified original, ensuring a smooth sweep and reliable timekeeping.
The 43.5mm 316L stainless steel case houses a highly legible dial with a deep green accent tone, noting a visual divergence from the standard grey traditionally associated with the 06.001 reference. The lyre lugs exhibit precise alternating brushed and polished finishes.
